Association between left ventricular global longitudinal strain and natriuretic peptides in outpatients with chronic systolic heart failure
BACKGROUND: Both impaired left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) and increased plasma concentrations of natriuretic peptides(NP) are associated with a poor outcome in heart failure (HF). Increased levels of NP reflect increased wall stress of the LV. However, little is known about th...
