• Recommendations for chamber quantification. (2006, methodology): “estimation of LA volume have been proposed.(113) Volume determined using linear dimensions is very dependent on careful selection of the location and direction of the minor axis dimensions and has been shown to significantly underestimate LA volume.”
• 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): “Slightly higher values have been reported in a cohort of 767 participants without cardiovascular disease in which obesity and height were not exclusion criteria.(113) Both body size and aging have been noted to influence LA size.”
• Obesity and the risk of new-onset atrial fibrillation. (2005, unknown): “Diastolic 78 (9) 81 (9) 85 (9) 75 (9) 77 (9) 80 (9)”
• American Society of Echocardiography recommendations for use of echocardiography in clinical trials. (2004, background): “Moreover, LA volume in a population-based study has been shown to reflect the presence and predict the incidence of cardiovascular disease.(89) Nonetheless, even linear measurements of LA size have been of utility in clinical and epidemiological studies.”
• 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, background): “Compared with AP diameter, LA volume has a stronger association with outcomes in cardiac patients.(113,137) Two-dimensional echocardiographic LA volumes are typically smaller than those reported from computed tomography or CMR.”
