Prognostic superiority of global longitudinal strain beyond four-tiered ventricular hypertrophy in asymptomatic individuals

Prognostic superiority of global longitudinal strain beyond four-tiered ventricular hypertrophy in asymptomatic individuals

Background: This study aims to explore the clinical correlates of myocardial deformations using speckle-tracking algorithm and to determine the prognostic utility of such measures in asymptomatic ethnic Chinese population. Methods: Global longitudinal (GLS), circumferential strain (GCS), and torsion...
