Eligibility criteria for systematic review

Type of characteristic
Population type	Acute STEMI
Measured parameters	Global longitudinal and/or circumferential strain and/or strain rate - PSS or strain rate (PSS-R) or PEDSR
Imaging modalities	STE or cardiac MRI tagging or cardiac MRI FT
Timeframe for baseline scan	Days 0-14 post-STEMI
Outcomes reported	MACE or adverse LV remodelling
Timeframe for follow-up	MACE - ≥ 6 mo
	Adverse LV remodelling - s ≥ 3 mo
Year published	Within the last 20 yr

STEMI: ST-elevation myocardial infarction; PSS: Peak systolic strain; PEDSR: Peak early diastolic strain rate; STE: Speckle-tracking echocardiography; FT: Feature tracking; MACE: Major adverse cardiac events; LV: Left ventricular; MRI: Magnetic resonance imaging.
