From the registry
Hypertension is a leading global risk factor for cardiovascular disease and is frequently associated with left atrial and ventricular remodeling, leading to subclinical diastolic dysfunction\[cite: 2\]. Left Atrial Volume Index (LAVI) serves as a sensitive indicator of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and a key predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes, including atrial fibrillation, stroke, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF)\[cite: 2\]. Reversing or preventing left atrial enlargement is critical to improving long-term prognosis in hypertensive patients\[cite: 2\]. While sacubitril/valsartan (an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor, ARNI) has demonstrated significant clinical benefits in heart failure, limited data exist regarding its comparative efficacy against valsartan alone in reversing left atrial remodeling in hypertensive patients with preserved ejection fraction (LVEF \>50%)\[cite: 2\]. This randomized controlled trial aims to evaluate and compare the efficacy of sacubitril/valsartan versus valsartan monotherapy in reducing LAVI and…
