    Abstract Central Illustration : Position Statement on the Use of Myocardial Strain in Cardiology Routines by the Brazilian Society of Cardiology's Department Of Cardiovascular Imaging - 2023 Proposal for including strain in the integrated diastolic function assessment algorithm, adapted from Nagueh et al.67 Am: mitral A-wave duration; Ap: reverse pulmonary A-wave duration; DD: diastolic dysfunction; LA: left atrium; LASr: LA strain reserve; LVGLS: left ventricular global longitudinal strain; TI: tricuspid insufficiency. Confirm concentric remodeling with LVGLS. In LVEF, mitral E wave deceleration time < 160 ms and pulmonary S-wave < D-wave are also parameters of increased filling pressure. This algorithm does not apply to patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), mitral annulus calcification, > mild mitral valve disease, left bundle branch block, paced rhythm, prosthetic valves, or severe primary pulmonary hypertension.

    Abstract Background: Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is associated with cardiac abnormalities and premature death. The aims of this study were to identify early markers of cardiac dysfunction through ventricular strain and ventricular twist and determine the relationships between these measures and other markers of cardiovascular risk.
    Methods: Forty patients with SCA (mean age, 23.5 ± 9.3 years; 24 male patients) and 40 age- and sex-matched healthy individuals were compared. All subjects participated in structured interviews, and blood samples were collected. Standard echocardiography with subsequent offline evaluations using left ventricular (LV) and right ventricular systolic strain and rotational analyses of the left ventricle using two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography were performed.
    Results: There were no differences in LV ejection fraction, global LV strain (longitudinal, circumferential, and radial), and global right ventricular longitudinal strain between patients and controls; however, LV twist was significantly lower in the patient group (mean, 7.4 ± 1.2° vs 10.7 ± 1.8°; P < .0001). Several variables were strongly related to LV twist, including the clinical severity index (ρ = -0.97, Z score = -6.05, P < .0001), E/e' ratio (r = 0.78, P < .0001), LV end-diastolic volume index (r = 0.81, P < .0001), and pulmonary artery systolic pressure (r = 0.72, P < .0001).
    Conclusions: LV twist is altered in patients with SCA. There were strong correlations between left ventricular twist and clinical severity index, E/e' ratio, LV end-diastolic volume index, and pulmonary artery systolic pressure. These data suggest that decreased LV twist may indicate a subgroup of patients with SCA at greater cardiac risk.

    Abstract Background: Patients with thalassemia major present chronic hemolysis and require regular blood transfusions which may cause iron overload cardiomyopathy and chronic heart failure. Hemochromatosis is characterized by excessive iron accumulation in tissues, and heart involvement is the main cause of death in patients with thalassemia.
    Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate cardiac structure and function by conventional Doppler echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging in patients with TM and no clinical evidence of heart failure.
    Methods: This is a prospective observational study including 18 patients with thalassemia major (TM) receiving regular blood transfusion. To separately evaluate anemia and blood transfusion effects, two gender, age, weight, and height-matched control groups were included: one with healthy individuals (Healthy, n=18) and one with iron deficient anemia patients (Anemia, n=18). Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA followed by Tukey's test or Kruskal-Wallis's and Dunn's test.
    Results: The following echocardiographic variables presented significantly higher values in TM than the Anemia and Healthy groups: left atrium volume index (Healthy: 16.4±6.08; Anemia: 17.9±7.02; TM: 24.1±8.30 cm³/m²); mitral septal E/Em ratio (Healthy: 6.55±1.60; Anemia: 6.74±0.74; TM: 8.10±1.31); and duration of reverse pulmonary vein flow [Healthy: 74.0 (59.0-74.0); Anemia: 70.5 (67.0-74.0); TM: 111 (87.0-120) ms]. The mitral E/A ratio was higher in TM than Anemia (Healthy: 1.80±0.40; Anemia: 1.80±0.24; TM: 2.03±0.34). No differences were found in left ventricular structures and systolic function indexes.
    Conclusion: Conventional Doppler echocardiography and tissue Doppler allow changes in left ventricular diastolic function to be identified in asymptomatic patients with thalassemia major.

    Abstract Objective: To assess the Doppler-echocardiographic changes in normotensive patients with type II diabetes mellitus, in the presence or absence of signs of microangiopathy.
    Methods: Patients with type II diabetes mellitus were submitted to funduscopy contrasted with fluorescein and dosage of microalbuminuria for diagnose of microangiopathy and divided into two groups: DMII (patients without microangiopathy, n=19) and DM+A (patients with microangiopathy, n=13). All of them were submitted to a Doppler-echocardiography and the results were compared with normotensive patients of same sex and age (group C, n=20), by using the ANOVA, followed by the test of Tukey. In all comparisons the significance level p<0.05 was adopted.
    Results: There were no differences among the groups regarding the systolic function indicators or left ventricular mass. Differences compatible with diastolic dysfunction in the two groups of diabetic were observed, regardless of the presence of microangiopathy, which showed significantly higher values of the times of isovolumetric relaxation of the left ventricle (TIRLV, ms): (DMII= 97+/-22.2; DM+A= 107+/-28.2 and C= 80+/-10.7; p<0.05), and lower values of the maximum speeds of the wave of fast ventricular filling (E, cm/s): (DMII= 69+/-17.5; DM+A= 75+/-19.7 and C= 84+/-14.5, p<0.05 between DMII and C). There was no difference among the groups concerning the E/A rate.
    Conclusion: Normotensive patients with type II diabetes mellitus and without clinical signs of cardiovascular compromising showed signs of diastolic dysfunction, non-associated to the presence of microangiopathy.
