dc.description.abstractBackground: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is associated with left atrial (LA) dyfunction, which may contribute to adverse cardiovascular outcomes. This study investigates the predictive value of lately identified morphology-voltage-P wave duration electrocardiography (MVP ECG) score for detecting early LA dysfunction in COPD patients. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 101 COPD patients were enrolled. All patients underwent speckle tracking echocardiography and were classified into two groups based on their LA functions. Results: Our findings demonstrate significant variations in Peak Atrial Longitudinal Strain (PALS) values among COPD patients, with a mean PALS of 28.74 ± 1.81 % for the group with normal LA function and 18.44 ± 1.87 % for the group with abnormal LA function (p < 0.001). Despite similar LA diameters across groups, these variations indicate subclinical LA pathogenesis. ROC curve analysis indicated that an MVP ECG score greater than 2.5 predicted abnormal LA function with a sensitivity of 65 % and a specificity of 91 % (area under the curve [AUC]: 0.873; p < 0.001), suggesting its utility in identifying atrial damage and remodeling. Conclusions: The MVP ECG score shows promise as a tool for early detection of atrial remodeling in COPD patients. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.
