The potential predictive value of cardiac mechanics for left ventricular reverse remodelling in dilated cardiomyopathy
ConclusionsPatients with LVRR had a lower LV volume index, lower LVSV index, lower LGE extent, higher LVRI, and preserved myocardial deformation in the longitudinal direction at baseline. LVRI and rGLPS at baseline were independent determinants of LVRR.
