Abstract
In this study, we sought evidence for an underlying atrial or ventricular myopathy in patients with paroxysmal lone atrial fibrillation using standard echocardiographic parameters in addition to Doppler tissue imaging of mitral annular motion. No impairment in atrial contractile function was found, but there was evidence for impaired diastolic function in these patients.Entities:
