Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Left ventricular (LV) reverse remodelling (LVRR) is a key therapeutic objective in heart failure (HF) with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), yet only a subset of patients exhibit meaningful recovery despite guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT). End-systolic wall stress (ESWS) and global longitudinal strain (GLS) reflect complementary aspects of myocardial mechanics. This study evaluated whether...
