Fig 1. Regional longitudinal deformation and prognosis.

Fig 1

Univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models describing the risk of an adverse outcome per 1 decrease in longitudinal performance in each segment described by the TDI parameters and the 2DSE parameters, respectively. Depicting the mean value of the longitudinal deformation parameters in patients without an adverse outcome vs. patients with an adverse outcome, and the hazard ratio (95% confidence intervals) of adverse outcome associated with 1 decrease in longitudinal performance. In the multivariable models, the Regional longitudinal deformation measures are adjusted for age, gender, diabetes, complex lesion, peak TnI and culprit lesion. TDI = Tissue Doppler Imaging, 2DSE = Two-dimensional strain echocardiography, LD = Mitral annular longitudinal displacement determined by color TDI, s’ = Peak systolic longitudinal mitral annular velocity determined by color TDI, SRs = Peak longitudinal systolic strain rate, LVEF = Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction, LVMI = Left Ventricular Mass Index. ANT = Anterior, LAT = Lateral, POST = Posterior, INF = Inferior, SEPT = Septal, ANT SEPT = Anterior septal.
