Left ventricular mechanics and effects on left atrial mechanics. Summary of mechanism that explain the relationship between left ventricular and left atrial mechanics in heart failure with preserved ejection fraction and its role in the development of symptoms; Examples of LA strain–time curve from of HFpEF with lower LV strain (A) and higher LV strain (B). HFpEF heart failure with preserved ejection fraction; LA left atrial; LV left ventricular
