Background: Heart failure with improved ejection fraction (HFimpEF) is classified as a new type of heart failure, and its prevalence and prognosis are not consistent in previous studies. There is no systematic review and meta-analysis regarding the prevalence and prognosis of the HFimpEF.Method: A systematic search was performed in MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library from inception to May 22, 2021 (PROSPERO registration: CRD42021260422). Studies were included for analysis if the prognosis of mortality or hospitalization were reported in HFimpEF or in patients with heart failure with recovered ejection fraction (HFrecEF). The primary outcome was all-cause mortality. Cardiac hospitalization, all-cause hospitalization, and composite events of mortality and hospitalization were considered as secondary outcomes.Result: Nine studies consisting of 9,491 heart failure patients were eventually included. During an average follow-up of 3.8 years, the pooled prevalence of HFimpEF was 22.64%. HFimpEF had a lower risk of mortality compared with heart failure patients with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) (adjusted HR: 0.44, 95% CI: 0.33–0.60). HFimpEF was also associated with a lower risk of cardiac hospitalization (HR: 0.40, 95% CI: 0.20–0.82) and the composite endpoint of mortality and hospitalization (HR: 0.56, 95% CI: 0.44–0.73). Compared with patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), HFimpEF was associated with a moderately lower risk of mortality (HR: 0.42, 95% CI: 0.32–0.55) and hospitalization (HR: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.58–0.92).Conclusion: Around 22.64% of patients with HFrEF would be treated to become HFimpEF, who would then obtain a 56% decrease in mortality risk. Meanwhile, HFimpEF is associated with lower heart failure hospitalization. Further studies are required to explore how to promote left ventricular ejection fraction improvement and improve the prognosis of persistent HFrEF in patients.Systematic Review Registration:https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/prospero/display_record.php?ID=CRD42021260422, identifier: CRD42021260422.

Introduction: Heart Failure (HF) is categorized according to the AHA/ACC 2013 HF Guidelines based on Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF); HF with Reduced Ejection Fraction (HFrEF, EF≤40%), and HF with preserved EF (HFpEF, EF ≥ 50%). There is a group of “borderline” patients with EF 41%-49%, termed Heart Failure with Mid-Range Ejection Fraction (HFmrEF). Given this category is not well understood, we sought to evaluate clinical characteristics and management patterns for patients with HFmrEF. Methods: A systematic review was performed using Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane CENTRAL and LILACS (1946 – 03/2018). Search terms included HF, mid-range, borderline LVEF with several ranges (40-50 or 40-45 or 45-50). Variables characterizing clinical features and medications were extracted for each HF group and adjusted odds ratios (ORs) were pooled. Results: Of 1,131 abstracts identified, 24 met inclusion criteria (total patients 480,188). Patients with HFmrEF compared to those with HFrEF were more likely to be female (OR 1.42), have hypertension [HTN] (OR 1.34) and diabetes (OR 1.11), higher SBP (OR 1.17), better NYHA-FC (FC I OR 1.73, FC II 1.33), less likely to have coronary artery disease [CAD] (OR 0.74) and more likely to be treated with ACEI, ARB, BB, Digoxin, MRA and statins (Figure 1-2). HFmrEF patients when compared to those with HFpEF were less likely to be female (OR 0.54) or have HTN (OR 0.68), and more likely to have CAD (OR 1.25), and to be treated with HF medications and statins. Conclusions: Patients with HFmrEF have higher SBP and better NYHA-FC (I and II) compared to HFrEF patients and are less likely to be female and more likely to have CAD compared to HFpEF patients. Further research is needed to help guide management in this unique but clinically important population. Figure 1A.
