Remodeling of Retinal Arterioles and Carotid Arteries in Heart Failure Development—A Preliminary Study

Remodeling of Retinal Arterioles and Carotid Arteries in Heart Failure Development—A Preliminary Study

Current data indicate that heart failure (HF) is associated with inflammation and microvascular dysfunction and remodeling. These mechanisms could be involved in HF development and progression, especially in HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We aimed to compare structural changes in retin...
