Left ventricular hypertrophy in emphysema [PDF]
Edwards, C. W. (1973) . Thorax , 29 , 75-80. Left ventricular hypertrophy in emphysema . The role of systemic hypertension in 10 emphysematous subjects with left ventricular hypertrophy was investigated. The medial thickness of the internal mammary artery was used as a parameter of raised systemic blood pressure during life.

Hyperaldosteronism and Left Ventricular Hypertrophy [PDF]
To the Editor: In their prospective study, Gaddam et al1 have examined the effects of spironolactone on cardiac structure in 34 patients with resistant hypertension who were separated according to their plasma aldosterone levels. At baseline, cardiac volume overload was detected in patients with higher aldosterone levels that was significantly and ...

Application of Fractional Derivatives in Characterization of ECG graphs of Right Ventricular Hypertrophy Patients [PDF]
There are many functions which are continuous everywhere but non-differentiable at some or all points such functions are termed as unreachable functions. Graphs representing such unreachable functions are called unreachable graphs. For example, ECG is such an unreachable graph.

The Impact of Standard Ablation Strategies for Atrial Fibrillation on Cardiovascular Performance in a Four-chamber Heart Model [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation is one of the most frequent cardiac arrhythmias in the industrialized world and ablation therapy is the method of choice for many patients. However, ablation scars alter the electrophysiological activation and the mechanical behavior of the affected atria.

Diagnostic value of R wave in aVL lead in left ventricular hypertrophy
Introduction: left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is defined as the increase in the thickness of the wall or the interventricular septal portion (or both). This entity represents an important risk factor that is related to the increase in mortality.

Characterization of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy via Fractional Derivatives [PDF]
In this paper, we have used the concepts of the fractional derivative of rough curves to characterize ECG of LVH patients and compared the results with normal ECGs. In mathematical language, an ECG is a rough curve having Q, R, S points as non-differentiable points where classical derivatives do not exist but fractional derivatives exist.
