AUC area under the curve, CI confidence interval, FS fractional shortening, LVEF left ventricular ejection fraction. This figure illustrates the prognostic accuracy of GLS in four studies22,23,24,25 for detecting early myocardial dysfunction, indicating moderate overall performance (AUC≈0.72) and high between-study heterogeneity (I² = 96%).
