Figure 1 . Transthoracic two-dimensional echocardiography of a
patient with concentric remodeling (RWT: 0.45 and LVMI: 94.35 gr/m2),
showing: A) type I left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (E/A ratio:
0.9) and B) end-diastolic hypertension (E/e´ratio:13.6) and C) left
ventricular ejection fraction by 3D-echocardiography of 57%. RA=right
atrium; RV= right ventricle.
Figure 2. Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (A) and
left atrial global strain (B) assessed by velocity vector imaging were
normal. RA=right atrium; RV= right ventricle; LV=left ventricle.
Figure 3. Correlation between LV-Strain and LVEF (A), Left
Ventricular Mass Index (B), Relative Wall Thickness (C), LA-Strain (D),
Left Atrial Volume (E) and E/e’ Index (F). Abbreviations : LVEF=
left ventricular ejection fraction; LV= left ventricle; LA= left atrium.
Supplementary Figure 1 : Differences among groups in LVEF (A),
LV-GS (B), LA-GS (C), Left Ventricular Mass Index (D), E/e’ Index (E)
and LA Volume. Abbreviations : NG= Normal Geometry; CR= Concentric
Geometry; CH= Concentric Hypertrophy; EH= Eccentric Hypertrophy; LV=
Left Ventricle; LA= Left Atrium; LVEF= Left Ventricle Ejection Fraction.
Supplementary Figure 2 : Differences in LVEF (A), LV-GS (B) and
LA-GS (C), Left Ventricular Mass Index (D), E/e Index (E) and Relative
Wall Thickness (F) in subjects with previous myocardial infarction.Abbreviations : LVEF=Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction; LV GS=
Left Ventricular global strain; LA GS= Left Atrial global strain.
