Reproducibility represents percent variability, intra-class correlation coefficient, or mean difference. 3D, 3-dimentional; A, late diastolic mitral inflow velocity; AS, aortic stenosis; Avg, average; CAD, coronary artery disease; CAG, coronary angiography; cath, catheterization; DD, diastolic dysfunction; E, early diastolic mitral inflow velocity; e’, early diastolic mitral annular tissue velocity; Echo, echocardiography; EDP, left ventricular end-diastolic pressure; EF, ejection fraction; HCM, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; HFpEF, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction; ICU, intensive care unit; lat, lateral; MDP, left ventricular mean diastolic pressure; N/R, not reported; NS, not significant; OMI, old myocardial infarction; PAH, pulmonary arterial hypertension; PCWP, pulmonary capillary wedge pressure; Pre-A, left ventricular pressure during pre-atrial contraction; Sens, sensitivity; sep, septal; Spec, specificity; and UA, unstable angina.

This study pooled together both HFpEF and HFrEF patients.
