Increased myocardial dysfunction, dyssynchrony, and epicardial fat across the lifespan in healthy males

BACKGROUND: Evaluation of sensitive myocardial mechanics with speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) across the lifespan may reveal early indicators of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and left ventricular (LV) myocardial dyssynchrony; subclinical risk-factors of C...
