Background Left ventricular myocardial work (MW) assessed by echocardiography has
recently been introduced as a new index of global and regional myocardial performance …

Background Despite of restoring epicardial infarct‐related artery (IRA) patency after
myocardial infarction, microvascular reperfusion were not achieved sometimes, and the …

Background Myocardial work (MW) indices and longitudinal strain (LS) are sensitive
markers of early left ventricular systolic dysfunction. Stress computed tomography …

Background Assessment of left ventricular (LV) remodeling after ST-segment elevation
myocardial infarction (STEMI) is pivotal for patient management. Noninvasive myocardial …

Global left ventricular (LV) myocardial work (MW) indices (GLVMWI) are derived from
speckle tracking echocardiographic strain data in combination with non-invasive blood …

Aims Adverse left ventricular (LV) remodelling after ST-segment elevation myocardial
infarction (STEMI) is associated with poor outcome. Global and regional LV myocardial work …

Background: Previous studies suggested that myocardial work (MW) may identify
abnormalities in the left ventricular (LV) function and establish a more sensitive index for LV …

Background Predicting left ventricular recovery (LVR) after acute ST-segment elevation
myocardial infarction (STEMI) is of prognostic importance. This study aims to explore the …

Background Evidence suggests that patients suffering from angina with no obstructive
coronary artery disease (ANOCA) experience coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) …

Background During ischemia a close relationship exists between sub-endocardial blood
flow and myocardial function. Strain parameters can capture an impairment of regional …
