Association of LARS and all-cause mortality in patients with significant primary mitral regurgitation. Example of two patients having the same degree of mitral regurgitation and comparable LAVi, but different values for LARS: LARS 14% (A) and LARS 29% (B). LARS value is identified by the white arrows. Kaplan–Meier curves for all-cause mortality according to baseline LARS show that patients with LARS >22% have lower mortality rates compared with patients with LARS ≤22% (C). LARS, left atrial reservoir strain; LAVi, left atrial volume index.
