Relations Between Aortic Stiffness and Left Ventricular Mechanical Function in the Community

BACKGROUND: Aortic stiffness impairs optimal ventricular–vascular coupling and left ventricular systolic function, particularly in the long axis. Left ventricular global longitudinal strain (GLS) has recently emerged as a sensitive measure of early cardiac dysfunction. In this study, we investigated...
