Type: article
Study design: Observational Study
Abstract: Background: Evaluation of mitral (MA) and tricuspid annuli (TA) in the same healthy subject in a non-invasive way in real-life clinical settings makes an opportunity to compare their dimensions and derived functional properties. The purpose of the present cohort study was to investigate whether there are any differences in the three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography- (3DSTE-) measured size and derived functional characteristics of the MA and TA in the same healthy adults. Methods: -test, analysis of variance (ANOVA) test, Fischer's exact test, Pearsons' correlations, interclass correlations and Bland-Altman tests. Results: 25.2%±10.6%, P=ns). Conclusions: Dilation of MA and TA is associated with different contralateral responses in morphology and function.
