Impaired myocardial deformation in psoriatic arthritis patients assessment by speckle tracking echocardiography
Objective: We aimed to evaluate left ventricular (LV) mechanics of patients diagnosed with PsA and no clinical evidence for cardiovascular disease (CVD) using a novel, more sensitive technique which evaluates myocardial deformation in multidimensional planes for the detection of impaired LV function...
