The Predictive Value of Global Longitudinal and Circumferential Strains in Hypertensive Patients: 10-Year Follow-Up

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Medicine
Background: The aim of the current study was to investigate the predictive value of a multidirectional LV strain on adverse outcomes in a large population of uncomplicated hypertensive patients who were followed for a mean period of 10 years. Methods: This retrospective study included 591 recently diagnosed hypertensive patients who underwent ...

Mechanistic Origins of Chemo‐Mechanical Instability and Failure in Solid‐State Lithium‐Sulfur Electrodes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Conversion‐induced sulfur expansion generates strong mechanical constraints and localized stresses within solid‐state Li‐S cathodes. Heterogeneous solid‐electrolyte confinement creates tensile strain‐energy hotspots that govern particle cracking. Larger sulfur particles accelerate fracture, while higher porosity relaxes constraint and delays damage ...

Feature-tracking myocardial strain in healthy adults- a magnetic resonance study at 3.0 tesla [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
We analyzed feature-tracking derived circumferential and longitudinal strain in healthy volunteers who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) at 3.0 T. 88 healthy adults (44.6 ± 18.0 years old, 49% male), without prior cardiovascular disease,

Intracrystalline Void‐Mediated Toughening of Brittle Crystals in Quail Eggshells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In quail eggshells, the high density and disordered arrangement of intracrystalline voids inhibit lattice cleavage, suppress long‐range crack propagation, and promote deformation twinning and quasi‐plasticity, serving as an essential toughening motif. We show that these voids remain within a narrow subcritical size range and therefore predominantly do ...

Speckle tracking echocardiography in hypokinetic non‐dilated cardiomyopathy: comparison with dilated cardiomyopathy

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aims Hypokinetic non‐dilated cardiomyopathy (HNDC), which is determined by impaired left ventricular (LV) systolic function despite normal LV size, has been categorized as a subgroup of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) spectrum.

Assessing Myocardial Strain and Myocardial Work as a Marker for Hypertensive Heart Disease: A Meta-Analysis

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Background: The main objective of this study was to determine whether myocardial strain and myocardial work are altered in hypertension and whether the strain is independent of hypertension-induced left ventricular hypertrophy.
