Effects of Thyroxine Therapy on Right Ventricular Systolic and Diastolic Function in Patients with Subclinical Hypothyroidism: A Study by Pulsed Wave Tissue Doppler Imaging

Abstract

SH is associated with RV systolic and diastolic dysfunction, and l-T(4) treatment improves these abnormalities. PWTDI, especially IVA, may be a suitable tool for the early detection of RV systolic dysfunction.
