Shunt quantification in congenital heart disease based on two-dimensional speckle tracking [PDF]
In this work we investigated how high frame rate speckle tracking based on plane wave imaging could be used to improve the quantification of peak velocities in shunt flows due to septal defects.

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

Left atrial trajectory impairment in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy disclosed by geometric morphometrics and parallel transport [PDF]
The analysis of full Left Atrium (LA) deformation and whole LA deformational trajectory in time has been poorly investigated and, to the best of our knowledge, seldom discussed in patients with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.

Studying diastology with speckle tracking echocardiography: The essentials
Diastolic dysfunction is common in cardiac disease and an important finding independent of systolic function as it contributes to the signs and symptoms of heart failure. Tissue Doppler mitral early diastolic velocity (Ea) combined with peak transmitral early diastolic velocity (E) to obtain E/Ea ratio provides an estimate of the left ventricular (LV ...

Therapy for Myhre Syndrome: Goals, Misconceptions, and Current Agents
ABSTRACT Myhre Syndrome (MYHRS, MIM #139210) is a rare, multisystem connective tissue disorder caused by recurrent heterozygous gain‐of‐function pathogenic variants in the SMAD4 gene, a key player in TGF‐β signaling and a regulator of extracellular matrix homeostasis.

Early diagnosis of cardiac involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus via global longitudinal strain (GLS) by speckle tracking echocardiography [PDF]
Introduction: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) myocarditis occurs in between 5% and 10% of patients with lupus. Global longitudinal strain (GLS) via speckle tracking echocardiography can detect cardiac involvement in patients suffering from SLE.

Speckle-Tracking Echocardiography in Cardio-Oncology and Beyond
Speckle-tracking echocardiography has enabled clinicians to detect changes in myocardial function with more sensitivity than that afforded by traditional diastolic and systolic functional measurements, including left ventricular ejection fraction. Speckle-tracking echocardiography enables evaluation of myocardial strain in terms of strain (percent ...
