Abstract:
Objective:To explore the application value of real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE) in evaluating the characteristics and regularities of left atrial volume and function changes in patients with hyperthyroidism and hyperthyroid heart disease.Methods:Fifty-six patients who were diagnosed with hyperthyroidism and hyperthyroid heart disease without treatments in Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from March 2020 to September 2020 were selected. They were divided into hyperthyroidism group(30 patients) and hyperthyroid heart disease group (26 patients). Another 30 healthy volunteers were selected as the control group. The following parameters were obtained by RT-3DE left atrial automatic quantification technology, left atrial minimum, maximum, presystolic volume index(LAVImin, LAVImax, LAVIpreA), left atrial passive, active emptying volume index and stroke volume index (LAVIp, LAVIa, LAVIEV), left atrial passive, active, total ejection fraction(LApEF, LAaEF, LAEF), during left ventricular systole, early diastole, late diastole left atrial longitudinal strain (LASr, LAScd, LASct) and circumferential strain (LASr-c, LAScd-c, LASct-c). The differences of the above parameters between the two groups were compared.Results:Compared with the control group, LAVImax, LAVIpreA, LAaEF, LAVIEV, LAVIa, LASr, LASct-c increased and LApEF decreased in the hyperthyroidism group (all P<0.05). While, LAVImin, LAVImax, LAVIpreA and LAVIEV increased, and LAaEF, LApEF, LAEF, LASct, LAScd-c and LASr-c decreased in hyperthyroid heart disease group(all P<0.05). Compared with the hyperthyroidism group, LAVImin, LAVImax and LAVIpreA in hyperthyroid heart disease group were further increased, while LAEF, LAaEF, LASr, LASr-c, LASct, LASct-c and LAScd-c were decreased (all P<0.05). LAEF were positively correlated with LASr and LASr-c ( r=0.617, 0.837; all P<0.01), LApEF were positively correlated with LAScd and LAScd-c ( r=0.620, 0.800, all P<0.01), LAaEF were positively correlated with LASct and LASct-c ( r=0.680, 0.727; all P<0.01). Conclusions:In the patients with hyperthyroidism, the left atrial reserve and systolic function are increased, which are still in the compensation stage, and the pipeline function is decreased. The left atrial reserve, pipeline and systolic function in the hyperthyroid heart disease patients are all decreased, and the pipeline function may be impaired earlier than the systolic and reserve function.
