Effects of obesity on left atrial phasic functions in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease and preserved left ventricular ejection fraction without recent myocardial infarction: a two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography study.

Among patients suffering from chronic ischemic heart disease with a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction and without a recent myocardial infarction, LA reservoir and contraction functions as measured by 2D STE were impaired in patients with obesity compared with those without it.
