The prognostic associations of both LA RS and LA CS with all-cause mortality were not attenuated by adjustment for GLS. Carluccio and colleagues demonstrated that LA RS remained significantly associated with a composite outcome in HFrEF after multivariable adjustment that included GLS. GLS was added as a covariate in a secondary model to test whether left ventricular myocardial deformation explained the prognostic associations of left atrial strain.
