At univariate analysis, LA maximum volume index, total LA emptying fraction, right atrial maximum volume index, PA-TDI, DLS, and SD4 were predictors of AF recurrence. At multivariable analysis, PA-TDI intervals in all LA walls remained strong predictors with mean PA-TDI (odds ratio 1.04; 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.06) having an optimal cutoff of 125.8 ms in receiver operator characteristics curve analysis providing 98% sensitivity and 100% specificity for AF recurrence (area under the curve = 0.989). PA-TDI was an independent predictor of AF recurrence and outperformed established echocardiographic parameters.Our aim was to assess the regional right ventricular (RV) shape changes in pressure and volume overload conditions and their relations with RV function and mechanics. The end-diastolic and end-systolic RV endocardial surfaces were analyzed with three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) in 33 patients with RV volume overload (rToF), 31 patients with RV pressure overload (PH), and 60 controls. The mean curvature of the RV inflow (RVIT) and outflow (RVOT) tracts, RV apex and body (both divided into free wall (FW) and septum) were measured. Zero curvature defined a flat surface, whereas positive or negative curvature indicated convexity or concavity, respectively. The longitudinal and radial RV wall motions were also obtained. rToF and PH patients had flatter FW (body and apex) and RVIT, more convex interventricular septum (body and apex) and RVOT than controls. rToF demonstrated a less bulging interventricular septum at end-systole than PH patients, resulting in a more convex shape of the RVFW (r = - 0.701, p  less then  0.0001), and worse RV longitudinal contraction (r = - 0.397, p = 0.02). PH patients showed flatter RVFW apex at end-systole compared to rToF (p  less then  0.01). In both groups, a flatter RVFW apex was associated with worse radial RV contraction
