ASSESSMENT OF AGE-RELATED CHANGES OF MYOCARDIAL CONTRACTILITY OF THE LEFT VENTRICULAR BY SPECKLE-TRACKING ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY AND DETERMINING THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH TELOMERE LENGTH

ASSESSMENT OF AGE-RELATED CHANGES OF MYOCARDIAL CONTRACTILITY OF THE LEFT VENTRICULAR BY SPECKLE-TRACKING ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY AND DETERMINING THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH TELOMERE LENGTH

Purpose: The aim of this cross-sectional study was to explore a profile of left ventricular (LV) strain parameters in healthy older and to examine their association with telomere length - accepted marker of cellular senescence.Methods: Echocardiography and 2-D speckle tracking analysis was performed...
