Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: 1. Obtain written informed consent before starting the evaluation; 2. Aged >=18 years; 3. Meet the HFpEF diagnostic criteria in the "2018 Chinese Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Heart Failure": 1) Symptoms of heart failure at visit 1 (NYHA grade II-IV). 2) BNP > 35ng/L or NT-proBNP > 125ng/L during screening. 3) Echocardiographic examination within 6 months before screening showed that LVEF >= 50%. 4) Ventricular hypertrophy (the thickness of the ventricular septum or the thickness of the left ventricular posterior wall >= 11mm) and/or left atrium enlargement (the transverse diameter of the left atrium >= 38mm or the long diameter of the left atrium >=50mm or the area of the left atrium >= 20m2 or the volume of the left atrium >= 55mL or Left atrial volume index >= 29mL/m2) and/or abnormal diastolic function (ventricular septum e'=15 or tricuspid valve displacement velocity > 2.8 m/s). 4. Body mass index (BMI) >= 25kg/m2.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: 1. Any previous echocardiographic measurement of LVEF 5.2mmol/L. 7. Symptomatic hypotension or SBP < 90 mmHg. 8.
