Aims We aimed to investigate the functional alterations, diagnostic utilization, and prognostic implication of carotid arterial deformations in subjects with cardiovascular risk factors and heart failure (HF) with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Methods and results Among 251 prospectively participants (mean age 66.0 ± 9.8 years, 65.7% female) in a single centre between December 2011 and September 2014, carotid artery deformations including circumferential strain (CCS)/strain rate and radial strain were analysed by two-dimensi
