LV – left ventricle; LA – left atrium; LVDD – LV end-diastolic dimension; LVSD – LV systolic dimension; E′ wave – early diastolic mitral annulus velocity (average of septal and lateral walls); A′ wave – late diastolic mitral annulus velocity (average of septal and lateral walls); IVRT – isovolumetric relaxation time; EDT – E-Wave deceleration time; EF – ejection fraction. Data are expressed as the mean ±SD or the median (including the lower and upper quartiles).
