Cardiac volumes, function, and arterial stiffness five years after severe preeclampsia: A comparison with sedentary and active controls

open access: yesClinical Physiology and Functional Imaging, Volume 46, Issue 5, September 2026.
Abstract Aims Preeclampsia is a pregnancy disorder characterized by hypertension and multiorgan failure related to endothelial damage. It is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease later in life, but pathophysiological mechanisms are unclear, and strategies to identify women at risk are missing.

Duration‐Dependent Cardiac Effects of Anabolic‐Androgenic Steroid Use in Strength‐Trained Athletes: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
Anabolic‐androgenic steroid use is associated with cardiac structural remodeling and functional impairment in strength‐trained athletes. Longer exposure was significantly associated with greater reductions in LVEF and increases in LVMI and posterior wall thickness, while other echocardiographic abnormalities showed heterogeneous temporal patterns ...

Right Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain and 30‐Day Mortality in Intermediate‐Risk Pulmonary Embolism: An External Validation Study

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
Reduced right ventricular global longitudinal strain (RVGLS) was associated with increased 30‐day mortality in an external cohort of patients with intermediate‐risk pulmonary embolism. RVGLS demonstrated discriminative ability (AUC 0.802), and the previously established 17.7% cutoff was associated with differences in 30‐day survival, supporting its ...

Left Atrial Reservoir Strain and Heart Failure Rehospitalization Burden in Acute Heart Failure With Atrial Fibrillation

open access: yesEchocardiography, Volume 43, Issue 9, September 2026.
This graphical abstract summarizes 716 patients with acute heart failure and atrial fibrillation. The left atrial diameter analysis included 691 patients (189 rehospitalization‐first, 118 death‐first, 384 censored); volume index and reservoir strain were available in a 320‐patient single‐center subgroup.

Physiologically‐Guided Ultrafiltration: A Proposed Ultrasound Framework for Individualized Volume Removal During Hemodialysis

open access: yesNephrology, Volume 31, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Ultrafiltration during hemodialysis is the most hemodynamically stressful intervention dialysis patients endure, yet its prescription relies on interdialytic weight gain and clinical gestalt. Rates exceeding 13 mL/kg/h carry substantially higher cardiovascular mortality, and recurrent intradialytic hypotension drives myocardial stunning ...

Ultrasound‐based haemodynamic force trajectories in a murine model of reversible pressure overload

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 17, Page 7092-7111, 1 September 2026.
Abstract figure legend High‐resolution ultrasound anatomical imaging and speckle‐tracking analysis were used to compute left ventricular (LV) haemodynamic forces (HDF) in a murine model of transverse aortic constriction (TAC) followed by aortic debanding (deTAC).

Application prospect of speckle tracking echocardiography in pacemaker implantation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
More than 1 million permanent pacemakers are implanted worldwide each year, half of which are in patients with high-grade atrioventricular block. Pacemakers provide adequate frequency support in the initial stage, but traditional right ventricular (RV) pacing may lead to or aggravate left ventricular dysfunction and arrhythmia.

Speckle Tracking Echocardiography of the Right Atrium: The Neglected Chamber

open access: yes, 2015
The right atrium (RA) plays a pivotal role in electromechanical and endocrine regulation of the heart. Its peculiar anatomical features and phasic mechanical function make it distinct from ventricles. Various invasive and noninvasive techniques have been

Speckle tracking Echocardiography is a sensitive tool for the detection of myocardial ischemia : A pilot study from the catheterization laboratory during percutaneous coronary intervention

open access: yes, 2007
Analysis of rotational myocardial motion has been reported to be a sensitive index of myocardial ischemia. In this study, circumferential and radial myocardial strain and displacement was monitored during angioplasty balloon-induced myocardial ischemia ...
