Given the importance of identifying early markers of adverse outcome beyond let ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left atrial volume (LAV), our aim was to assess the association of LAS with major cardiovascular events, both in the general population and in specific cardiovascular diseases.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We systematically searched PUBMED, COCHRANE Central Register of Controlled Trials and WEB OF SCIENCE (WoS) up to October 2023. Studies were included if they assessed LAS, measured by speckle\u2010tracking echocardiography and analyzed as a continuous variable, and cardiovascular outcome. The primary endpoint was a composite of all\u2010cause death and heart failure (HF) hospitalizations. A meta\u2010analysis following the PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta\u2010Analyses) framework was conducted. Sixteen reports including 13156 participants were eligible. LAS predicted outcome in a population with and without a variety of cardiovascular conditions (HR 0.91; 95% CI 0.86\u20130.96). The result was confirmed in patients with HF (HR, 0.93; 95% CI, 0.89\u20130.97), IHD (HR, 0.95; 95% CI 0.91\u20130.99) or VHD (HR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.90\u20130.97), but not in patients with LVH (HR, 0.98; 95% CI, 0.84\u20131.15).
