Myocardial work is an emerging tool in echocardiography that incorporates left ventricular
afterload into global longitudinal strain analysis. Myocardial work correlates with myocardial …

Early identification and treatment of high‐risk coronary artery disease (CAD) is the main goal
of current cardiovascular disease treatments. Speckle‐tracking ultrasound technology can …

Background This study explored the serum concentrations of miR-26 in patients with carotid
atherosclerosis (CAS) and defined the roles and mechanisms of miR-26 derived from the …

Abstract Background Early diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) plays a key role to
prevent adverse cardiac events such as myocardial infarction and Left Ventricular (LV) …

Background Post-systolic shortening (PSS) is an important indicator for early identifying
myocardial dysfunction. We aimed to investigate the predictive value of PSS assessed with …

Objective The study was performed to explore the predictive value of multiple strain
parameters for myocardial fibrosis in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) by …

Background To evaluate myocardial work using speckle tracking echocardiography in
patients with non-obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods Fifty patients …

Myocardial ischemia caused by coronary artery disease (CAD) and the presence of
metabolic abnormalities and microvascular impairments detected in patients with diabetes …

Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) derived longitudinal strain (LS) and noninvasive
pressure-strain loop (PSL) derived myocardial work (MW) are more sensitive than …

Background Myocardial work (MW) is a novel echocardiographic modality, which has been
shown to have diagnostic and prognostic values in patients with cardiovascular diseases …
