We sought to explore the relationship between blood pressure (BP), vascular afterload measures, clinical history of hypertension, TFR, and survival in patients with severe AS (aortic valve area ≤ 1 cm²).</p><p><strong>Methods and results: </strong>We studied 323 patients ≥ 65 years (110 prospective, 213 registry analysis) who underwent transcatheter aortic valve replacement over a 5-year period. Aortic flow was obtained by Doppler echocardiography, with TFR calculated using a mathematical derivation method. A BP ≥ 140/90 mmHg and/or mean arterial pressure ≥ 90 mmHg was considered hypertensive. Simultaneous pressure-flow analysis demonstrated that higher systolic BP (ß -0.545; P = 0.01†), pulse pressure (ß -0.545; P = 0.01†), vascular resistance (ß -0.02; P = 0.041), characteristic impedance (ß -0.27; P = 0.01), and lower arterial compliance (ß 32.73; P < 0.001†) were associated with reduced TFR in linear regression. In registry analysis, TFR was lower in those with a history of hypertension (223 ± 67 vs. 244 ± 77 mL/s; r -0.138; P = 0.045), coronary artery disease (CAD, P < 0.01), dialysis dependency (P < 0.01), and with increased anti-hypertensive medication use (P = 0.04), of which CAD (ß -28.5; P = 0.08†) and dialysis dependency (ß -68.5; P = 0.04†) remained significant in linear regression.

Compared to patients with SSc-non-HFpEF, those with SSc-HFpEF were older and had a higher prevalence of coronary artery disease, more severe LV diastolic dysfunction (by definition), depressed right ventricular systolic function, reduced exercise capacity (lower peak oxygen consumption), and poorer ventilatory efficiency. Exercise right heart catheterization (RHC) was performed in 25 patients and it confirmed elevated pulmonary capillary wedge pressure during peak exercise in patients with SSc-HFpEF. Participants were followed up to assess the primary composite endpoint: all-cause mortality, HF hospitalization, unplanned hospital visits requiring intravenous diuretics, or oral diuretic intensification.
