Global Longitudinal Strain Monitoring to Guide Cardioprotective Medications During Anthracycline Treatment

open access: yesCurrent Oncology Reports, 2022
Anthracycline chemotherapy carries a risk of myocardial dysfunction and heart failure even at relatively low doses, and the clinical prediction of cancer treatment-related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD) is inexact.

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.

The peripheral blood transcriptome in septic cardiomyopathy: an observational, pilot study

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2019
Background Septic cardiomyopathy (SCM) is common in sepsis and associated with increased morbidity and mortality. Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV GLS), measured by speckle tracking echocardiography, allows improved identification of ...

Association between angiopoietin‐2 and functional cardiac remodeling in hemodialysis patients with normal left ventricular ejection

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2022
Cardiac remodeling is the initial process in heart failure development. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between endothelium‐related biomarkers and cardiac remodeling in hemodialysis (HD) patients and how the presence of high blood ...

Reference Ranges of Left Ventricular Strain Measures by Two-Dimensional Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography in Children: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Establishment of the range of reference values and associated variations of two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2DSTE)-derived left ventricular (LV) strain is a prerequisite for its routine clinical adoption in pediatrics ...

Regional and Global Left Ventricular Function Following a Simulated 5 km Race in Sports-Trained Adolescents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The effects of a short, high-intensity bout of exercise on cardiac systolic and diastolic function are not well understood in adolescent athletes. Consequently, the aims of the study were to evaluate global left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic ...

Magnetic resonance imaging of myocardial strain after acute ST-segment-elevation myocardial infarction: a systematic review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The purpose of this systematic review is to provide a clinically relevant, disease-based perspective on myocardial strain imaging in patients with acute myocardial infarction or stable ischemic heart disease.

Prevalence of subclinical systolic dysfunction in Takayasu’s arteritis and its association with disease activity: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesAdvances in Rheumatology, 2023
Background Takayasu’s arteritis (TA) is a vasculitis that affects the aorta and its branches and causes stenosis, occlusion, and aneurysms. Up to 60% of TA patients are associated with cardiac involvement which confers a poor prognosis.

Left ventricular global longitudinal strain in identifying subclinical myocardial dysfunction among patients hospitalized with COVID-19

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2021
Background: The incidence of acute cardiac injury in COVID-19 patients is very often subclinical and can be detected by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

Deleterious Effects of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Volume on Global Longitudinal Strain in Patients With Preserved Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: It is known that epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) volume is linked to cardiac dysfunction. However, it is unclear whether EAT volume (EATV) is closely linked to abnormal LV strain.
