Speckle Tracking Echocardiography for the Assessment of the Athlete's Heart: Is It Ready for Daily Practice? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: To describe the use of speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) in the biventricular assessment of athletes' heart (AH). Can STE aid differential diagnosis during pre-participation cardiac screening (PCS) of athletes?

Early and late systolic wall stress differentially relate to myocardial contraction and relaxation in middle-aged adults: the Asklepios study [PDF]

open access: yes, 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.

Speckle tracking echocardiography: A new approach to myocardial function

open access: yesWorld Journal of Cardiology, 2010
Echocardiography is the most common diagnostic method for assessing cardiac function but some limitations affect this technique. Until now, visual assessment of wall motion and thickening has allowed only a subjective evaluation of myocardial function and requires long-term training.

Markers of Maternal and Infant Metabolism are Associated with Ventricular Dysfunction in Infants of Obese Women with Type 2 Diabetes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND To test the hypothesis that infants born to obese women with pregestational type 2 diabetes mellitus (IBDM) have ventricular dysfunction at one month that is associated with markers of maternal lipid and glucose metabolism.
