| Popis: | Objective In patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), there are several studies that assessed the left ventricular (LV) function by strain (S) and strain rate (SR) imaging. The aim of this study is to evaluate the function of both atria in patients with CAD using strain and strain rate imaging, and to correlate this with the severity of CAD. Methods We conducted a prospective, single center case control study for 40 consecutive patients who presented to our department with chronic stable angina and were candidates for invasive coronary angiography. We enrolled patients from December 2013 to May 2014 and each patient was subjected to echocardiographic assessment of E/e′ of mitral valve, left atrial volume index (LAVI), right atrial volume index (RAVI), and peak atrial longitudinal strain (es) and strain rate (SR) during LV systole. This was followed by invasive coronary angiography for assessment of the severity of CAD using Gensini score. Patients were classified according to angiographic results into 3 groups: Group I (Gensini score = zero), Group II (Gensini score > 0 and |
