Left ventricular strain: A reliable predictor of short-term outcomes in patients with anterior wall myocardial infarction without heart failure

Background: Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is a key determinant in decision-making after acute myocardial infarction (MI). Little is known of its relationship with left ventricular Strain and N-Terminal fragment of pro-B-type Natriuretic Peptide (NT-pro-BNP) following acute anterior wall...
