Global Longitudinal Active Strain Energy Density (GLASED): A Powerful Prognostic Marker in a Community-Based Cohort

BACKGROUNDIdentifying the imaging methods that best predict heart failure risk, cardiovascular adverse events and death is crucial for tailoring optimal management. Potential prognostic markers include myocardial mass, left ventricular ejection fraction, myocardial strain, stroke work, contraction fraction, pressure-strain product and a new measurement called global active longitudinal strain density (GLASED).
