Figure 3.
Regional longitudinal strain in the AVS+IR (pink bar), the AVS-IR (green bar), and control group (blue bar). Longitudinal strain in the AVS+IR group, the AVS-IR group, and control group along the LV wall base, mid, and apex is shown. The decrease in longitudinal strain is more pronounced at the mid-apical than basal portions of the LV wall in the AVS+IR group.
