Prediction of all-cause mortality from global longitudinal speckle strain: Comparison with ejection fraction and wall motion scoring

open access: yes, 2009
Background-Although global left ventricular systolic function is an important determinant of mortality, standard measures such as ejection fraction (EF) and wall motion score index (WMSI) have important technical limitations. The aim of this study was to

Longitudinal Displacement for Left Ventricular Function Assessment

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease
Background: Quantitative evaluation of myocardial function traditionally relies on parameters such as ejection fraction and strain. Strain, reflecting the relative change in the length of a myocardial segment over the cardiac cycle, has been extensively ...

A global longitudinal strain cut‐off value to predict adverse outcomes in individuals with a normal ejection fraction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2021
Aims Global longitudinal strain (GLS) has become an alternative to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) to determine systolic function of the heart. The absence of cut‐off values is one of the limitations preventing full clinical implementation. The

Practical Guidance in Echocardiographic Assessment of Global Longitudinal Strain

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2015
there has been increasing interest in the measurement of global myocardial strain because it is a sensitive and robust index to detect subclinical myocardial dysfunction, with a defined normal range [(1)][1].

Persistence of abnormal global longitudinal strain in women with peripartum cardiomyopathy

open access: yesEchocardiography, 2021
AbstractObjectivesData regarding the longitudinal relationship of global longitudinal strain (GLS) and echocardiographic parameters are lacking in peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM). We evaluated GLS and its correlation with change (∆) in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).MethodsWe retrospectively identified women age ≥16 years hospitalized at ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Left ventricular myocardial function in hemodialysis and nondialysis uremia patients: a three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography study. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
BACKGROUND: Several studies have demonstrated that uremic patients who have preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) could still have the potential for systolic dysfunction.
