| Abstract | In recent years, the assessment of global longitudinal strain (GLS) derived by speckle-tracking analysis has become a clinically feasible alternative to left ventricular (LV) ejection fraction (LVEF) for the assessment of myocardial function. However, the determinant factors of impaired GLS in structurally and functionally normal patients are unclarified. The objective of this study was to elucidate the determinant factors of impaired GLS in structurally and functionally normal patients. We evaluated structurally and functionally normal patients scheduled to undergo noncardiac surgery. The evaluated patient characteristics were age, sex, presence of hypertension, presence of diabetes mellitus, presence of hyperlipidemia, systolic blood pressure, and body mass index. The concentrations of B-type natriuretic peptide and high-sensitivity troponin I were measured. Echocardiography was performed to determine the LVEF, GLS, transmitral early diastolic velocity/transmitral atrial velocity ratio, LV mass index (LVMI), and relative wall thickness (RWT). Patients with preserved LVEF (≥50%) were divided into the normal GLS group (GLS ≤ -20%) and the impaired GLS group (GLS > -20%). On the basis of the RWT and LVMI values, the patients were categorized as having four types of LV geometry. Logistic regression analysis was performed to ascertain the determinant factors of impaired GLS. The study cohort comprised 75 structurally and functionally normal patients (age 67.7 ± 12.6 years, 45 men). The GLS was normal in 43 patients and impaired in 32 patients. There was a significant difference in RWT between the impaired and normal GLS groups. The evaluation based on the LV geometry showed that six of seven patients with concentric hypertrophy geometry had impaired GLS, and the GLS was significantly more impaired in patients with concentric hypertrophy geometry than in patients with normal geometry or eccentric hypertrophy geometry. Logistic regression analysis revealed that LV concentric hypertrophy geometry was a significant determinant factor of impaired GLS (odds ratio 22.4, P = 0.042). Global longitudinal strain is more impaired in structurally and functionally normal patients with concentric hypertrophy geometry compared with those with eccentric hypertrophy geometry or normal geometry. In addition, concentric hypertrophy geometry is a significant determinant for impaired GLS in patients with normal cardiac structure and function. |
