Figure 1. Average Longitudinal and Circumferential Systolic Strain.

Figure 1

Average longitudinal strain (red bars) and circumferential systolic strain (green bars) among normal controls (n = 50), hypertensive heart disease (HHD) patients (n = 44), heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) patients overall (n = 219), and in 3 categories HFpEF based on left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). *p < 0.0001 compared to controls and between HHD and HFpEF overall for longitudinal strain and circumferential strain. #p = 0.0002 compared to controls. †LVEF-adjusted p < 0.001 compared to controls.
