P.54 Biomarkers and Haemodynamic Predictors of Left Atrial Strain in Early Hypertension
Background: In the early stages of atrial remodeling, increased aortic stiffness might indicate atrial fibrosis. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the association between left atrial (LA) mechanical function, assessed by two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography and aortic stiffnes...
