ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the diagnosis value of the tissue strain imaging in myocardial dysfunction in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Sixty-two patients and sixty controls underwent conventional and tissue Doppler echocardiography. Peak strain and strain rate value during systolic and diastolic phases as well as E/A, left ventricular fraction shortening (LVFS), left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) were measured in both SLE and the control groups. Results ①E/A,LVFS and LVEF did not differ between SLE patients and controls( P >0.05). The systolic peak strain and strain rate of SLE patients were lower than those of controls but without significant differences( P >0.05). ②The diastolic peak strain and strain rate of SLE patients were significantly lower than those of controls (P <0.01). ③ The diastolic peak strain and strain rate of antiheart antibody (AHA) positive patients were significantly lower than those of negative ones( P <0.05). Conclusions Strain and strain rate combining with AHA can sensitively detect myocardial dysfunction of SLE.
