a

For supplemental analysis, we included studies that either used a lower LVEF threshold to identify preserved LV systolic function (ie, LVEF ≥40% or 45%) or had no criteria for normal LVEF but the mean and standard deviation for LVEF of the study satisfied the condition that mean minus 2 SDs ≥40%. For a normal distribution, the latter condition assumes that about 98% of participants have LVEF ≥40%. This allowed for inclusion of all clinically relevant studies for secondary analysis since LVEF between 40% to 50% is sometimes used to indicate preserved LVEF.

b

Clinical DD/HFpEF was described in studies based on composite of clinical signs and symptoms of HF with invasive parameters of DD with preserved LVEF. Some of these studies also included BNP (brain natriuretic peptide) or NT‐proBNP (N‐terminal of the prohormone brain natriuretic peptide) biochemical levels in composite reference definition. No uniform definition was used for clinical diagnosis of DD/HFpEF across these studies.

c

Elevated LVFP group included 3 patients who had LVEDP >16 mm Hg only after hemodynamic interventions.
