Early and late systolic wall stress differentially relate to myocardial contraction and relaxation in middle-aged adults: the Asklepios study [PDF]
, 2013 Experimental studies implicate late systolic load as a determinant of impaired left ventricular (LV) relaxation. We aimed to assess the relationship between the myocardial loading sequence and left ventricular (LV) contraction and relaxation.

Color doppler correlates of pulmonary artery hypertension
Journal of Clinical and Preventive Cardiology, 2017 Mild systolic reduction in pulmonary artery flow is an echocardiographic sign of pulmonary artery hypertension. However, at times, it is difficult to appreciate and further grade it into mild, moderate, or severe. We regularly performed color Doppler and

Changes in left atrial deformation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy: Evaluation by vector velocity imaging. [PDF]
, 2012 OBJECTIVES: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) represents a generalized myopathic process affecting both ventricular and atrial myocardium. We assessed the global and regional left atrial (LA) function and its relation to left ventricular (LV) mechanics ...
