Global longitudinal strain correlates to systemic right ventricular function [PDF]

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2020
Abstract Background The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the relationship between right ventricular function derived from cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), echocardiography and exercise stress test performance, NT-proBNP (N-terminal proB-type natriuretic peptide) level and NYHA class in patients with a systemic right ventricle.

Highlighting the role of global longitudinal strain assessment in valvular heart disease

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2022
Background Echocardiography has been the choice for imaging modality for valvular heart disease. It is less invasive, widely available, and allows valvular structure visualization. Echocardiographic assessment often also determines the management.

Age- and gender-related normal left ventricular deformation assessed by cardiovascular magnetic resonance feature tracking [PDF]

, 2015
Background: Assessment of left (LV) ventricular function is one of the most important tasks of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). Impairment of LV deformation is a strong predictor of cardiovascular outcome in various cardiac diseases like ischemic

Quantification of left ventricular longitudinal strain, strain rate, velocity and displacement in healthy horses by 2-dimensional speckle tracking [PDF]

, 2011
Background: The quantification of equine left ventricular (LV) function is generally limited to short-axis M-mode measurements. However, LV deformation is 3-dimensional (3D) and consists of longitudinal shortening, circumferential shortening, and radial ...

Gender differences in two-dimensional and three-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography left ventricular measurements among healthy preschool pediatric population

The Egyptian Heart Journal, 2023
Background Speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) is an upcoming echocardiographic modality to measure global as well as segmental left ventricular systolic function expressed numerically as strain values independent of angle and ventricular geometry ...

Global and regional cardiac function in lifelong endurance athletes with and without myocardial fibrosis [PDF]

, 2017
The aim of the present study was to compare cardiac structure as well as global and regional cardiac function in athletes with and without myocardial fibrosis (MF). Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with late gadolinium enhancement was used to detect MF

Myocardial recovery after percutaneous coronary intervention in coronary artery disease patients with impaired systolic function- predictive utility of global longitudinal strain

Indian Heart Journal, 2022
Objective: Coronary revascularization is associated with better outcomes in coronary artery disease patients. We aim to investigate the prevalence, and factors associated with left ventricular (LV) improvement following successful percutaneous coronary ...

Right Heart Remodeling in Patients with End-Stage Alcoholic Liver Cirrhosis: Speckle Tracking Point of View [PDF]

, 2019
BACKGROUND: Data regarding cardiac remodeling in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis are scarce. We sought to investigate right atrial (RA) and right ventricular (RV) structure, function, and mechanics in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis.
