Background: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) often mimics anterior ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) caused by left anterior descending (LAD) occlusion, yet the two entities differ fundamentally in pathophysiology and mechanical behavior. Two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) enables detailed assessment of left ventricular (LV) deformation beyond conventional ejection fraction (LVEF).

Submitted: 19 September 2025 Posted: 19 September 2025 You are already at the latest version Background: Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is the most common valvular abnormality in the general population and has been linked to mitral regurgitation, arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death. Its prevalence and prognostic significance in athletes re-main uncertain, raising important questions for pre−participation screening, eligibility for competition, and long−term follow−up.

You are already at the latest version Primary mitral regurgitation (PMR) is the most common mitral valve disorder in clinical practice. Although several prognostic indicators derived from resting transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and exercise stress echocardiography (ESE) are available, patient out-comes remain highly variable, with substantial differences in the risk of complications and mortality.
