Left ventricular hypertrophy evaluation in obese hypertensive patients: effect of left ventricular mass index criteria.
PURPOSE To evaluate left ventricular mass (LVM) index in hypertensive and normotensive obese individuals. METHODS Using M mode echocardiography, 544 essential hypertensive and 106 normotensive patients were evaluated, and LVM was indexed for body surface area (LVM/BSA) and for height2 (LVM/h2). The 2 indexes were then compared in both populations, in subgroups stratified according to body mas...

METHODS Echocardiographic and anthropometric measurements were performed in 2,293 individuals who participated in the echocardiographic substudies of population-based MONICA Augsburg surveys. In addition, a total of 319 siblings of survey participants with echocardiographic evidence of LVH were evaluated. The risk of these siblings to present with LVH or abnormal LV geometry was estimated by co...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an important end point of dialysis-associated cardiovascular disease. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of different pediatric reference systems on the estimated prevalence of LVH in children on chronic peritoneal dialysis (CPD). DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Echocardiographic studies in 507 p...
