Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that LV GLS and RV FWLS were independent predictors for composite endpoints (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.37, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.08-1.75, p = 0.010 and HR: 1.19, 95% CI: 1.01-1.41, p = 0.042). Kaplan-Meier analysis indicated that patients with both lower absolute values of LV GLS and RV FWLS were more likely to be at an even higher risk of composite endpoints (p < 0.001).

High-dose dobutamine stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (DCMR) is a well-established technique to detect hemodynamically significant coronary artery disease (CAD).
