Effects of beta-blockers on heart failure with preserved ejection fraction: a meta-analysis.
<h4>Background</h4>Effects of beta-blockers on the prognosis of the heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) remain controversial. The aim of this meta-analysis was to determine the impact of beta-blockers on mortality and hospitalization in the patients with HFpEF...
