Abstract:Background
There is a close relationship between volumes of the right atrium (RA) and dimensions and derived functional sphincter-like features of the tricuspid annulus (TA). However, its relation to longitudinal TA motion is not clear, which can even be considered to be a characteristic of the longitudinal shortening of the right ventricle (RV) and represented by TA plane systolic excursion (TAPSE). Therefore, the aim of this cohort study was to perform a detailed analysis of the relationship of … Show more
