TL;DR

Patients with autoimmune rheumatic diseases exhibit subclinical left ventricular dysfunction despite preserved ejection fraction and absence of myocardial fibrosis on late gadolinium enhancement imaging, as well as significant reductions in circumferential and longitudinal strain rate parameters.

The value of CMR-derived left atrial strain parameters in differential diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

CMR-derived left atrial strain parameters, particularly εs, might serve as a reliable means for differentiating between HCM and CA, which need further prospective study including patients with all HCM types and conducting internal and external validation to confirm credibility and expand generalizability.

Role of feature tracking cardiac MRI in evaluation of ischemic cardiomyopathy

A multi-strain approach—SCS and SRS for transmural scar identification, SLS for early subendocardial injury—offers clinically meaningful, contrast-independent viability information that complements LGE imaging and supports risk stratification in this population.

Global and segmental left ventricular strain, contraction time parameters, and strain rate in patients with amyloid cardiomyopathy based on feature tracking magnetic resonance imaging data

In patients with ACM, FT-CMR reveals a characteristic peak strain gradient with relative preservation of apical segments in the longitudinal direction, TTP prolongation in the apical segments in all directions, and directionally variable PSSR values.

Prognostic Value of Strain Imaging Measurements in Patients with Non-ischemic Cardiomyopathy: A Scoping Review.

Strain parameters, particularly LVGLS, remained independently associated with outcomes in 34 of 36 studies after multivariable adjustment, often providing incremental value beyond LVEF and late gadolinium enhancement, and support strain imaging, especially LVGLS, as an adjunct to conventional risk stratification in div...

Left ventricular systolic dysfunction detected by speckle tracking in hypertensive patients with preserved ejection fraction (cid:2)

To identify subclinical left ventricular dysfunction in hypertensive subjects with pre-served ejection fraction (>55%), global parameters of myocardial strain on speckle tracking imaging are identified by global parameters of myocardial strain on speckle tracking imaging.

Association of Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance-Derived Papillary Muscle Abnormalities with Non-Sustained Ventricular Tachycardia in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

CMR-derived PM abnormalities were associated with NSVT in patients with HCM, and PM-LGE, abnormal chordal attachment, and anterolateral PM–septum systolic contact emerged as exploratory CMR characteristics that warrant further evaluation in larger prospective studies.
