TL;DR
Both LACI and LASI demonstrate good diagnostic value for LVDD in patients with CKD, with LASI showing superior performance and the combined use of both parameters significantly improves diagnostic sensitivity.
CMR-derived LACI is an independent predictor of adverse cardiovascular outcomes, particularly HFH, in patients with ICM, and provides incremental prognostic value beyond traditional metrics like LVEF.
Background and Objectives: Echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is challenging, as conventional parameters correlate poorly with left ventricular filling pressure. Emerging evidence suggests that left atrial (LA) strain is associated with atr...

In patients hospitalized for HFpEF with persistent AF, LAP classification was associated with HF hospitalization, implying clinical relevance of the 2025 algorithm-based approach in this challenging population.

Abstarct Background Risk stratification in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM) traditionally relies on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), which may not fully demonstrate the complex interplay between atrium and ventricle. The left atrioventricular coupling index (LACI) has emerged as a promising integrative marker. T...

BACKGROUND
Predicting the improvement of functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) to medical therapy is an important, yet overlooked, clinical issue. The objective of the study was to evaluate whether echocardiographic assessment of left ventricular (LV) mechanoenergetic parameters and of LV volumes is associated with imp...
