Diet modification reverses diastolic dysfunction in rats with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction
{{output}}
Dahl Salt-Sensitive (DSS) rats develop heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) when fed a high-salt (8 % NaCl) diet. Hypertension-induced inflammation and subsequent ventricular fibrosis are believed to underlie the development of HFpEF. We inve... ...
