3. Figure 2
Love plot displaying absolute standardized differences comparing 114* baseline characteristics between older patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction, receiving a new discharge prescription of ACE inhibitors, before and after propensity score matching. A = admission; D = discharge; H = in-hospital; Hx = medical history; PF = precipitating factor. *Four regions entered as single categorical variable in the model.

Kaplan-Meier plot for primary composite end point of all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization in a propensity-matched inception cohort of older patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction receiving and not receiving a new discharge prescription for ACE inhibitors. ACE = angiotensin-converting enzyme; CI = confidence interval; HR = hazard ratio.

Association of a new discharge prescription of ACE inhibitors with primary composite end point of all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization in subgroups of propensity-matched inception cohort of older patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction. ACE = angiotensin-converting enzyme; CI = confidence interval; GFR = glomerular filtration rate.
