Figure 1 Diastolic indexes included: 1—transmitral early (E) and late (A) velocities and early deceleration time (DT); 2—pulmonary vein systolic (S), diastolic (D), and atrial reversal (AR) velocities; 3—systolic (Sa) and early (Ea) and late (Aa) diastolic mitral annular velocities measured from tissue Doppler imaging of the septal annulus; 4—the velocity of propagation (Vp) of early filling (from mitral annulus to left ventricular apex) measured from the slope of the first aliasing velocity (11).
