Correlation between global longitudinal peak systolic strain and coronary artery disease severity as assessed by the angiographically derived SYNTAX score

BACKGROUND: In this study, we investigate the correlation between reduced global longitudinal peak systolic strain (GLPSS) and the SYNTAX score (SS) in patients undergoing coronary angiography. METHODS: We examined 71 patients undergoing both echocardiogram and coronary angiography within 15 days. A...
