Serum uric acid: A risk factor for right ventricular dysfunction and prognosis in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction

BackgroundHyperuricemia and right ventricular dysfunction (RVD) are both widespread in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) patients. RVD is associated with a poor prognosis in HFpEF. The correlation between serum uric acid (UA) levels and right ventricular function is unclear. The...
