Echocardiographic evaluation of left ventricular function in patients with mitral regurgitation: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

This study aimed to quantitatively assess left ventricular function in patients with mitral regurgitation (MR) using speckle-tracking echocardiography and further clarify its clinical application.

Methods

PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library databases were searched from the date of establishment to November 22, 2024. Two investigators independently screened the literature, extracted data, and evaluated the quality of the included studies. Meta-analysis was performed using Stata18.0 software.

Results

Finally, 23 studies were included, all of which scored ≥7 on the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Meta-analysis results showed that, the left ventricular end-systolic volume index (P < 0.01), left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (P < 0.0
