Layer-specific systolic and diastolic strain in  hypertensive patients with and without mild diastolic dysfunction

Layer-specific systolic and diastolic strain in  hypertensive patients with and without mild diastolic dysfunction

This study sought to examine layer-specific longitudinal and circumferential systolic and diastolic strain, strain rate (SR) and diastolic time intervals in hypertensive patients with and without diastolic dysfunction. Fifty-eight treated hypertensive patients were assigned to normal diastolic funct...
