Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction as a predictor of the first diagnosed nonvalvular atrial fibrillation in 840 elderly men and women. (2002, background): “50 and DT of 151 to 240 ms, but distinguished by whether LA volume was 28 ml/m(2) (pseudonormal) or 28 ml/m(2) (normal) (16).”
Recommendations for chamber quantification: a report from the American Society of Echocardiography's Guidelines and Standards Committee and the Chamber Quantification Writing Group, developed in conjunction with the European Association of Echocardiography, a branch of the European Society of Cardio (2005, methodology): “Normal indexed LA volume has been determined using the preferred biplane techniques (area-length or method of disks) in a number of studies involving several hundred patients to be 22 6 cc/m(2).(88,120,126,127) Absolute LA volume has also been reported; however, in clinical practice indexing to BSA ”
Recommendations for the evaluation of left ventricular diastolic function by echocardiography. (2008, positive): “This assessment is clinically important, because there is a significant relation between LA remodeling and echocardiographic indices of diastolic function.(11) However, Doppler velocities and time intervals reflect filling pressures at the time of measurement, whereas LA volume often reflects the cu”
How to diagnose diastolic heart failure: a consensus statement on the diagnosis of heart failure with normal left ventricular ejection fraction by the Heart Failure and Echocardiography Associations of the European Society of Cardiology. (2007, background): “atrial volume index is a more robust marker than left atrial area or left atrial diameter.(144,145) For these reasons, the present consensus document considers a left atrial volume index .”

Recommendations for cardiac chamber quantification by echocardiography in adults: an update from the American Society of Echocardiography and the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging. (2015, methodology): “LA enlargement is a marker of both the severity and chronicity of diastolic dysfunction and magnitude of LA pressure elevation.(98,100-103)”
