This study underscores the intricate link between elevated red blood cell counts, disease duration, and cardiac function in PV patients. Combining 4D-STE and fQRS complexes enhances the identification of early left ventricular systolic dysfunction. These findings offer potential improvements in recognizing and managing cardiovascular complications in PV patients, with implications for future research and clinical practice. Further investigations are needed to elucidate underlying mechanisms and validate these markers in larger cohorts.
