This study is looking at how small vessel disease (when tiny heart arteries narrow) might lead to pre-HFpEF (heart muscle not working well, even with good pumping). Researchers want to find better ways to prevent HFpEF. You might be able to join if you are an adult, male or female, with symptoms of heart ischemia (reduced blood flow to the heart) but no major blockages in your heart arteries, and your heart's pumping function is preserved. The study involves clinic visits, phone interviews, and potentially a heart MRI to track your progress over time.

Study design

This is an observational study, meaning researchers will watch and collect information without giving any specific interventions. It plans to include 180 men and women.

What's involved

You would have up to two clinic visits, a 6-week phone interview, four quarterly phone interviews in the first year, and ongoing annual phone interviews. A heart MRI might also be part of the first year's follow-up.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

You will have annual follow-up phone interviews to track your progress after the initial year.
