This study examines the effects of combined endurance and resistance training in patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). Over 12 months, 322 patients were randomized to either exercise training (ET) or usual care (UC). While the primary outcome showed no significant difference, the ET group experienced improvements in oxygen uptake and heart function. These findings suggest potential benefits of exercise for HFpEF patients.
