Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Familial Predisposition of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy
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...
متن کاملPrognostic value of electrocardiographic criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy.
BACKGROUND Many electrocardiographic (ECG) criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) exist, but few studies have compared their relative prognostic value for predicting cardiovascular (CV) mortality. METHODS We analyzed the first ECG on 46950 consecutive veterans. We targeted male outpatients with a body mass index > 20 to avoid confounding by complicating catabolic illnesses and furthe...
متن کاملPrognostic implications of baseline electrocardiographic features and their serial changes in subjects with left ventricular hypertrophy.
BACKGROUND During the past half-century, the ECG has been used extensively for the diagnosis of left ventricular hypertrophy. Persons with ECG evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy are at increased risk for the development of cardiovascular disease. METHODS AND RESULTS Subjects from the Framingham Heart Study with ECG evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy were eligible for this investig...
متن کاملClinical Diagnosis of Electrical Versus Anatomic Left Ventricular Hypertrophy: Prognostic and Therapeutic Implications.
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) can develop in association with chronic arterial hypertension and other cardiovascular disorders and is a well-established risk factor for cardiac arrhythmias, cardiovascular events, and mortality. Over 4 decades ago the Framingham Heart Study reported that electrocardiographic evidence of LVH (ECG LVH) was associated with 3to 4-fold increase in cardiovascular...
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...
