Abstract
Females with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction have lower muscle oxygen diffusive conductance during peak exercise compared with males. Interventions to improve muscle quality and diffusive capacity are of particular importance for improving peripheral limitations to exercise in females with HFpEF.
