Association of GLS assessment and all-cause mortality stratified according to subgroups of patients with NSTEMI and STEMI. Cox regression analysis is depicted per 1 SD of strain measure, adjusted for age, sex, systolic blood pressure, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, smoking status, diabetes and positive family history of premature coronary artery disease
| NSTEMI | P value | STEMI | P value | |
| HR (95% CI) | HR (95% CI) | |||
| LV-GLS | 1.47 (1.17 to 1.85) n=729 | 0.001 | 2.94 (1.81 to 4.78) n=339 | <0.001 |
| RV-GLS | 1.32 (1.08 to 1.63) n=733 | 0.008 | 1.65 (1.07 to 2.55) n=336 | 0.02 |

GLS, global longitudinal strain; LA, left atrium; LV, left ventricle; NSTEMI, non-ST segment elevation myocardial infarction; RV, right ventricle; STEMI, ST segment elevation myocardial infarction.
