Excerpt

We read with great interest the article by Candan and colleagues [1]. The authors have found an independent association of increased left ventricular twist and decreased global longitudinal strain (GLS) with the occurrence of nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (NSVT) during Holter monitoring in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). …
