Figure 1From: Wall shear stress in hypertensive patients is associated with carotid vascular deformation assessed by speckle tracking strain imagingRegression analysis between peak wall shear stress (WSS) and carotid deformation parameters assessed by speckle tracking echocardiography. (A) Global circumferential strain and (B) peak posterior radial stain showed a significant positive correlation with peak WSS. (C) Brachial ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) showed a significant negative correlation with peak WSS.Back to article page
