E, indicates peak early diastolic left ventricular filling velocity; E_sep′, early diastolic E velocity at the the septum of mitral annular; E_lat′, early diastolic E velocity at the lateral of mitral annular; E′, the average of E_sep′ and E_lat′; E/E′, the ratio of E to E′; Tei_sep, Tei index at the septum of mitral annular; Tei_lat, Tei index at the lateral of mitral annular; Tei, the average of Tei_sep and Tei_lat. Data are presented as the mean ± standard deviations from each group. ^#is and is .
