Abstract:when enhanced motion occurred in mid or apical segments than when they did not (p¼0.01, 0.005, respectively). d-IVV correlated with d-WMSI of the mid and apical levels (r¼0.48, 0.42, p¼0.01, 0.03), while it did not for the basal level (r¼0.21, p¼0.3). ROC-curve showed that d-IVV detects global viability effectively (AUC¼0.761), however, sensitivity and specificity increased for mid and apical levels (AUC¼0.790, 0.868).CONCLUSION Mitral annular longitudinal motion during isovolumic contraction, represented by I… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
