Investigation on left ventricular multi-directional deformation in patients of hypertension with different LVEF

Abstract Background This study is aimed at investigating myocardial multi-directional systolic deformation in hypertensive with different left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), and exploring its contribution to LVEF. Methods One hundred and twenty-three patients with primary hypertension (HT) we...
