Predictive value of early cardiac magnetic resonance imaging functional and geometric indexes for adverse left ventricular remodelling in patients with anterior ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction: A report from the CIRCUS study
2020, Archives of Cardiovascular DiseasesCitation Excerpt :Various geometrical indexes have been proposed to assess this deformation at the acute phase of MI, such as the sphericity and conicity indexes. These indexes have been suggested to be predictive of adverse LV remodelling [10] and major cardiovascular events, independent of ejection fraction [11]. Several reports have explored the association between infarct size and adverse LV remodelling [12,13].

Application of the novel statistical tool (coined DNR) described in this study has shed a new light on earlier studies [7,8,9,11]. The main findings concern:
