摘要: Background The identification of patients at risk for developing left ventricular (LV) remodeling after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has crucial prognostic implications. aims this study were (1) to investigate the relationship between peak subepicardial and subendocardial twist infarct transmurality, as assessed using contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging, (2) evaluate association LV 6 months AMI. Methods A total 213 with ST-segment elevation AMIs who underwent three-dimensional echocardiography volumes functional assessment two-dimensional speckle-tracking analysis evaluation (subendocardial vs subepicardial) retrospectively included. subgroup 40 imaging within 2 size quantification. Results Peak was strongly related (number segments transmural scar: r = 0.526, P 0.515, 0.379, 0.331, .041) independently associated development remodeling. Conclusions reflects transmurality is
