Figure 4. Predictive value of radial (top panel), circumferential strain (mid-panel) and longitudinal strain (bottom panel), among subjects with preserved LVEF (≥50%).

Figure 4.

Models are adjusted for LVEF, the presence of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF), age, sex, ethnicity, body mass index, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, hypertension, diabetes, coronary artery disease and glomerular filtration rate. In these models, all measures of LV strain were independently predictive of incident hospitalized HF and death.
