  1. CC min,LV minimal left ventricular circumferencial strain, RR max,LV maximal left ventricular radial strain, LL min,LV minimal left ventricular longitudinal strain, torsion max maximal left ventricular torsion, CC rate min,LV systolic minimum circumferencial strain rate, RR rate max,LV systolic maximal radial strain rate, LL rate min systolic minimal longitudinal strain rate, torsion rate min systolic minimal torsion rate, CC rate max,LV early diastolic maximal circumferencial strain rate, RR rate min,LV early diastolic minimal radial strain rate, LL rate max early diastolic maximal longitudinal strain rate, torsion rate max early diastolic maximal torsion rate
  2. p is related to the rest-stress comparison within each group. prest and pstress relate to group comparisons at rest and stress, respectively
