2-D speckle-tracking assessment of left and right ventricular function in rheumatoid arthritis patients with and without disease activity

OBJECTIVES: Disease activity has been considered as independent cardiovascular risk factor in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. We aimed to evaluate the effect of RA disease activity on left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular (RV) functions by speckle tracking echocardiography (STE). METHODS:...
