Echocardiographic study results of stable hemodialysis patients.

Abbreviations: CSRs, systolic circumferential strain rate; EDVi, end-diastolic volume index; EF, ejection fraction; E/e′, early transmitral velocity to tissue Doppler mitral annular early diastolic velocity ratio; GLS, global left ventricular peak systolic longitudinal strain; IVCe, end-expiratory inferior vena cava diameter; LAVi, left atrial volume index; LSRs, systolic longitudinal strain rate; LV, left ventricular; s′, peak systolic mitral annular velocity. Data are expressed as mean ± SD. ‡Non-normal distributed continuous data. ★ p value by Student's t-test for normal distributed continuous data and nonparametric Mann-Whitney U test for non-normal distributed continuous data.
