Impact of surgical and non-surgical weight loss on echocardiographic and strain parameters in Asian patients

Abstract Surgical weight loss (SWL) improves myocardial mechanics as measured by speckle-tracking imaging. However non-surgical versus SWL and the subsequent impact on myocardial function in overweight Asian subjects has not been evaluated. 66 patients underwent a 16-week lifestyle intervention (LSI...
