Contour plot showing the correlation among DSrE with E/A, LVPWT. The vertical axis represents E/A, and the horizontal axis represents LVPWT.

The LVPWT was higher and more diversified in PD patients than in the healthy control group. The patients showed E/A with lower level and distribution width regarding the control group
