Right ventricular (RV) systolic function has an important role in the prediction of adverse
outcomes, including mortality, in a wide range of cardiovascular (CV) conditions. Because of …

Background The impact of aortic valve replacement (AVR) on progression/regression of
extravalvular cardiac damage and its association with subsequent prognosis is unknown …

Far less attention has been paid to the prognostic effect of right‐side heart disease on
outcomes after transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) when compared with the left …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the association between right
ventricular dysfunction (RVD) and cardiovascular death after transcatheter aortic valve …

BACKGROUND: Right ventricular (RV) function is a strong predictor of patient outcome after
cardiac surgery. Limited studies have compared the predictive value of RV global …

Background—The objective of this study was to examine the impact of left ventricular (LV)
global longitudinal strain (GLS) measured at rest and at dobutamine stress …

Background Conventional right ventricular (RV) echocardiographic measurements of
systolic function (SF) have demonstrated conflicting results when their association with long …

Aims In patients randomized to transcatheter or surgical aortic valve replacement (TAVR,
SAVR), we sought to determine whether SAVR is associated with worsening right ventricular …

Aim: To evaluate the long-term prognostic significance of right ventricular (RV) deformation
and RV-arterial coupling in a cohort of patients with heart failure (HF) due to severe aortic …

Background Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LVLS) is a powerful predictor of
outcome in patients with low-flow, low-gradient aortic stenosis (LF-LG AS) and low LV …
