First seen Mar 20, 2026 · Last updated Jun 13, 2026 · Updated 16 times
Summary
This study looks at why women after menopause have a higher chance of developing a type of heart failure called diastolic heart failure. Researchers will collect heart tissue from 500 women having heart surgery to study how the loss of estrogen affects heart energy and blood vessel health. The goal is to better understand the biological pathways involved, not to test a new treatment.
