Popis: Background and objective: Left atrium (LA) is an important biomarker of adverse cardiovascular outcomes and cerebrovascular events. This study aimed to evaluate LA myocardial deformation using cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking (CMR-FT) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and secondary mitral regurgita- tion (MR). Additionally, to assess interobserver and intraobserver variability of the technique.Materials and methods: Twenty patients with STEMI underwent CMR with a 1.5 Tesla MRI scanner. According to the presence of MR patients were divided into two groups: MR(+) and MR(−). Total LA strain (εs), passive LA strain (εe), and active LA strain (εa) were obtained. Additionally, total, passive and active strain rates (SRs, SRe, and SRa) were calculated. To assess interobserver agreement data analysis was performed by second independent observer.Results: LA volumetric and functional parameters were similar in both groups. All LA strain values were significantly higher in patients with MR: εs (27.67 ± 10.25 for MR(−) vs. 32.80 ± 6.95 for MR(+)
P = 0.01), εe (15.29 ± 7.30 for MR(−) vs. 19.22 ± 6.04 for MR(+)
P = 0.01) and εa (12.38 ± 4.23 for MR(−) vs. 14.44 ± 5.19 for MR(+)
P = 0.03). Only SRe significantly increased in patients with MR (−0.57 ± 0.24 for MR(−) vs. −0.70 ± 0.20 for MR(+)
P = 0.01). All LA deformation parameters demonstrated high interobserver and intraobserver agreement. Conclusions: Conventional volumetric and functional LA parameters do not detect early changes in LA performance in patients with STEMI and secondary MR. In contrast, LA reservoir, passive and active strain are significantly higher in patients with MR. Only peak early negative strain rate substantially increases during secondary MR. LA deformation parameters derived from conventional cine images using CMR-FT technique are highly reproducible.
