Backgrounds20-30% atrial fibrillation (AF) may result in heart failure (HF). Noninvasive left ventricle myocardial work (LVMW) is a fairly new method for detecting LV function. We aimed to evaluate whether LVMW could detect the LV change function in paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) and predict HF incident. MethodsIn this prospective cohort study, 146 PAF subjects and 63 non-PAF subjects matched by age and gender set as the controls were enrolled. Noninvasive LVMW parameters, including globa...
