Myung-Rho Kim, Taha Shaikh, Spencer Taylor, Shawn Wang, Darren Nguyen, Banveet Kaur Khetarpal, Ali Namazi, Vidhani S. Goel, Roberto Sagaribay, and Kavita Batra (all Medicine) have published “Global Longitudinal Strain as a Prognostic Biomarker for Asymptomatic Moderate to Severe Aortic Regurgitation with Preserved Ejection Fraction: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis” in the Journal of Clinical Medicine. 

This interdisciplinary study synthesizes evidence across cardiology and related fields to evaluate global longitudinal strain (GLS) as a prognostic biomarker in patients with asymptomatic moderate to severe aortic regurgitation and preserved ejection fraction. By integrating findings from multiple studies, the review highlights the potential of GLS to serve as an early marker for adverse outcomes, supporting more timely clinical decision-making and improved patient care.
