Development and regression of left ventricular hypertrophy.
Left ventricular hypertrophy is an important adaptive response to chronic pressure or volume overload of the left ventricle. The different types and the pathophysiologic mechanisms of the development of left ventricular hypertrophy in various disease states are reviewed. Detection of left ventricular hypertrophy may be accomplished by electrocardiography and cardiac angiography. Echocardiograph...
متن کاملREGRESSION OF LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY AFTER SUCCESSFUL RENAL TRANSPLANTATION AMONG UREMIC PATIENTS
Recognition of the natural history and responsible leading factors for regression of left ventricular hypertrophy after successful renal transplantation are very important. The aim of this study was to assess the regression of left ventricular hypertrophy after successful renal transplantation among uremic patients. In this study 27 uremic patients (18 males and 9 females) with an average a...

Gender Differences in Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Regression To the Editor: We read with interest the article of Os et al1 about the effects of losartan in women with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy from the Losartan Intervention For Endpoint reduction in hypertension (LIFE) Study. The main finding in this posthoc analysis was that, compared with atenolol-based treatment, losarta...
متن کاملRenal denervation and regression of left ventricular hypertrophy.
Effective blood pressure (BP) control in hypertensive patients is still a missed objective, leading to an unacceptably high rate of cardiovascular events. This is particularly true in the case of resistant hypertension. Among the 53 530 stable hypertensive patients with subclinical or established atherothrombotic disease enrolled in the international Reduction of Atherothrombosis for Continued ...
متن کاملechocardiographic assessment of inappropriate left ventricular mass and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with diastolic dysfunction
background: early diagnosis of left ventricular mass (lvm) inappropriateness and left ventricular hypertrophy (lvh) can result in preventing diastolic left ventricular dysfunction and its related morbidity and mortality. this study was performed to determine if diastolic dysfunction is associated with lvh and inappropriate lvm. methods: one hundred and twenty five uncomplicated hypertensi...
