Values represent median (25th-75th percentile). Strain values are shown as absolute values for ease of interpretation. E/e’ ratio and e’ velocity represent average of septal and lateral mitral annulus values.

LVEDVi = left ventricular end diastolic volume index; LVESVi = left ventricular end systolic volume index; LVEF = left ventricular ejection fraction; LVMi = left ventricular mass index; RWT = relative wall thickness; LAVi =left atrial volume index; RVEDAi = right ventricular end diastolic area index; RVESAi = right ventricular end systolic area index; RV = right ventricular; TAPSE = tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion; TR = tricuspid regurgitation; GLS = global longitudinal strain of the left ventricle; LA = left atrial.
