Distribution of tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) in HFpEF patients (A; red, lowest; grey, middle and black, highest tertile). Insert (B) shows Tukey box and whisker plots of TAPSE values in patients with normal, mildly or moderate-severely depressed RV systolic function by semi-quantitative assessment. * p<0.05 vs normal RV function; † p<0.05 vs mildly depressed RV systolic function. Insert (C) shows the distribution of TAPSE in HFpEF and in an age and sex matched healthy control population without cardiovascular disease.
