Abstract
BACKGROUND: Approximately half of all patients with chronic heart failure (HF) have a decreased ejection fraction (EF) (systolic HF [SHF]); the other half have HF with a normal EF (diastolic HF [DHF]). However, the underlying pathophysiological differences between DHF and SHF patients are incompletely defined. The purpose of this study was to use echocardiographic and implantable hemodynamic monitor data to examine the pathophysiology of chronic compensated and acute decompensated HF in SHF versus DHF patients. METHODS AND RESULTS: Patients were divided into 2 subgroups: 204 had EF <50% (SHF) and 70 had EF >or=50% (DHF). DHF patients had EF of 58+/-8%, end-diastolic dimension of 50+/-10 mm, estimated resting pulmonary artery diastolic pressure (ePAD) of 16+/-9 mm Hg, and diastolic distensibility index (ratio of ePAD to end-diastolic volume) of 0.11+/-0.06 mm Hg/mL. In contrast, SHF patients had EF of 24+/-10%, end-diastolic dimension of 68+/-11 mm, ePAD of 18+/-7 mm Hg, and diastolic distensibility index of 0.06+/-0.04 mm Hg/mL (P<0.05 versus DHF for all variables except ePAD). In SHF and DHF patients who developed acute decompensated HF, these events were associated with a significant increase in ePAD, from 17+/-7 to 22+/-7 mm Hg (P<0.05) in DHF and from 21+/-9 to 24+/-8 mm Hg (P<0.05) in SHF. As a group, patients who did not have acute decompensated HF events had no significant changes in ePAD. CONCLUSIONS: Significant structural and functional differences were found between patients with SHF and those with DHF; however, elevated diastolic pressures play a pivotal role in the underlying pathophysiology of chronic compensated and acute decompensated HF in both SHF and DHF.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
