Right ventricular pressure overload directly affects left ventricular torsion mechanics in patients with precapillary pulmonary hypertension

This study examined the impact of septal flattening on left ventricular (LV) torsion in patients with precapillary pulmonary hypertension (PH). Fifty-two patients with proven precapillary PH and 13 healthy controls were included. Ventricular function was assessed including 4D-measurements, tissue ve...
