Popis: Background Uncontrolled blood pressure (BP) is commonly observed in patients receiving antihypertensive agents. However, its relationship with early left ventricular (LV) dysfunction has not been elucidated. Methods This study enrolled 276 patients with treated hypertension and 85 healthy controls. The 140/90 mm Hg was used to define controlled (HT1 group, n=145) or uncontrolled BP (HT2 group, n=131) according to the concurrent guidelines. LV myocardial function was assessed by two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging, and the circumferential end-systolic wall stress (cESS)-corrected mid-wall fraction shortening (MWFS), systolic longitudinal (eLs-18), circumferential (eCs-18), and radial (eRs-18) strain were measured. Results Despite similar ejection fraction, the HT1 and HT2 groups displayed an overall reduction in the cESS-corrected MWFS (13.4±2.7 vs 11.7±1.7 vs 15.5±1.2), eLs-18 (15.6±2.8 vs 13.0±2.2 vs 17.4±2.8), eCs-18 (17.3±3.4 vs 14.1±2.7 vs 18.9±3.3), and eRs-18 (18.4±4.0 vs 14.8±3.1 vs 20.5±4.5) %·cm2/kdyne·10−2 when compared with the control group (all P
