Scientists probe hidden cause of Women's heart failure

NCT ID NCT06015776

Summary

This study aims to understand why postmenopausal women have a higher risk of developing a specific type of heart failure where the heart muscle is stiff. Researchers will analyze heart tissue samples from 500 women undergoing heart surgery to study how the loss of estrogen affects the heart's energy production and blood vessel health. The goal is to uncover biological mechanisms to guide future treatments, but this study itself does not test any new therapies.
