Correlations between myocardial deformation parameters and invasive hemodynamic measures, and serum biomarkers. BNP – B type natriuretic peptide; E/GLS – ratio of early-diastolic LV inflow velocity (E) to global longitudinal strain (GLS); GLS – global longitudinal strain; LVEF – left ventricle ejection fraction; mPAP – mean pulmonary arterial pressure; PCWP – pulmonary capillary wedge pressure; PVR – pulmonary vascular resistance
