Aims To determine whether fully automated artificial intelligence-based global circumferential strain (GCS) assessed during vasodilator stress cardiovascular (CV) magnetic resonance (CMR) can provide incremental prognostic value. Methods and results Between 2016 and 2018, a longitudinal study included all consecutive patients with abnormal stress CMR defined by the presence of inducible ischaemia and/or late gadolinium enhancement. Control subjects with normal stress CMR were selected using a propensity score-matching. Stress-GCS was assessed using a fully automatic machine-learning algorithm based on featured-tracking imaging from short-axis cine images. The primary outcome was the occurrence of major adverse clinical events (MACE) defined as CV mortality or nonfatal myocardial infarction. Cox regressions evaluated the association between stress-GCS and the primary outcome after adjustment for traditional prognosticators. In 2152 patients [66 ± 12 years, 77% men, 1:1 matched patients (1076 with normal and 1076 with abnormal CMR)], stress-GCS was associated with MACE [median follow-up 5.2 (4.8–5.5) years] after adjustment for risk factors in the propensity-matched population [adjusted hazard ratio (HR), 1.12 (95% CI, 1.06–1.18)], and patients with normal CMR [adjusted HR, 1.35 (95% CI, 1.19–1.53), both P < 0.001], but not in patients with abnormal CMR (P = 0.058). In patients with normal CMR, an increased stress-GCS showed the best improvement in model discrimination and reclassification above traditional and stress CMR findings (C-statistic improvement: 0.14; NRI = 0.430; IDI = 0.089, all P < 0.001; LR-test P < 0.001). Conclusion Stress-GCS is not a predictor of MACE in patients with ischaemia, but has an incremental prognostic value in those with a normal CMR although the absolute event rate remains low.
