Aims To examine the characteristics/prognostic impact of diastolic dysfunction (DD)
according to 2016 American Society of Echocardiography (ASE) and European Society of …

Aims Diastolic dysfunction (DD) is frequent in the general population; however, the
assessment of diastolic function remains challenging. We aimed to evaluate the impact of …

Background Recent American Society of Echocardiography and European Association of
Cardiovascular Imaging guidelines for the assessment of diastolic dysfunction (DD) …

Background Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (DD) is common, particularly in women and
older individuals, and it is associated with adverse cardiovascular outcomes. We evaluated …

Background: Diastolic dysfunction (DD) is highly prevalent and associated with increased
morbidity and mortality, but its natural history remains poorly defined. Objective: This cohort …

Background—Diastolic dysfunction is an independent predictor of mortality in patients with
normal left ventricular ejection fraction. There are limited data, however, on whether …

Background Different diagnostic criteria limit comparisons between populations in the
prevalence of diastolic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. We aimed to compare across …

Objectives: We sought the impact of recent recommendations on observer concordance on
interpretation of diastolic stage and assessment of filling pressure. Background: Worsening …

Objective: To determine the prevalence and predictors of left ventricular (LV) diastolic
dysfunction in older adults. Design, setting and participants: A cross-sectional survey of …

Aims The prevalence of left ventricular diastolic abnormalities in the general population is
largely unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was, firstly, to identify abnormal diastolic function …
