AIM: To conduct a systematic review relating myocardial strain assessed by different
imaging modalities for prognostication following ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) …

Objective Left ventricular (LV) adverse remodelling is an important determinant of mortality
after ST segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Recently, discharge heart rate …

Background: Global longitudinal strain (GLS) based on two-dimensional speckle-tracking
echocardiography (2D-STE) might better reflect left ventricular (LV) contractile performance …

Aims To ascertain whether the presence of left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy in patients with
ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) influences microvascular dysfunction …

Background Noninvasive detection of functionally significant coronary artery disease (CAD)
by echocardiography remains challenging, with the need to perform stress imaging to detect …

Background To determine if global strain parameters measured by cardiovascular magnetic
resonance (CMR) acutely following ST-segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) …

Background Global left ventricular (LV) myocardial work efficiency, the ratio of constructive to
wasted work in all LV segments, reflects the efficiency by which mechanical energy is …

The aim of this study was to determine whether assessment of global longitudinal strain
(GLS) before revascularization could predict adverse cardiac events after ST-segment …

Background Myocardial stunning is responsible for partially reversible left ventricular (LV)
systolic dysfunction after successful primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) in …

Objectives The aim of this study was to determine whether global myocardial work (MW),
derived from non‐invasive left ventricle (LV) pressure‐strain loops (PSL) at rest, could …
