Discharge left ventricular diastolic abnormalities and left atrial strain-to-volume ratio predict 6-month heart failure after STEMI

Despite contemporary reperfusion therapy, a subset of STEMI patients develops heart failure (HF) during follow-up, including those with preserved or mildly reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), suggesting mechanisms beyond global systolic dysfunction. To evaluate whether integrative assessment...

The silent scar: remote myocardial fibrosis underlies diastolic dysfunction in women after STEMI-multimodality imaging phenotyping

The positive correlation between remote zone native T1 and E/e′ provides mechanistic evidence of fibrosis-mediated diastolic dysfunction in women after STEMI and support sex-specific myocardial tissue characterisation and early cardioprotective therapy in women after STEMI.

Diastolic dysfunction after STEMI: distinct mechanistic pathways revealed by CMR and echocardiography

Left ventricular (LV) diastole comprises active relaxation, chamber compliance, and filling pressure response. Whether these functional components reflect distinct patterns of myocardial injury early after ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) remains unclear. We studied 258 STEMI patients (mean age 5...
