Peak left atrial longitudinal strain is associated with all-cause mortality in patients with ventricular functional mitral regurgitation

Abstract Purpose Chronic mitral regurgitation promotes left atrial (LA) remodeling. However, the significance of LA dysfunction in the setting of ventricular functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) has not been fully investigated. Our aim was to assess the prognostic impact of peak atrial longitudinal...
