Left ventricular geometry in pregnancy-induced hypertension [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 2000
The changes induced by transient hypertension upon cardiac geometry (G) are unclear. Pregnancy-induced hypertension (PIH) offers a natural and spontaneous model of this condition. To assess geometric changes according to two-dimensionally guided M-mode echocardiography, we compared patients with PIH with normal pregnant women (NPW).

Left ventricular geometry in presenting untreated hypertension [PDF]

Journal of Human Hypertension, 1997
In order to investigate the spectrum of geometry in our patient population, 63 untreated hypertensives underwent two-dimensional echocardiography. Left ventricular (LV) mass index and relative wall thickness, a measure of wall thickness in relation to cavity size, were calculated from the M-mode strip.

Left Ventricular Geometry and Severe Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Children and Adolescents With Essential Hypertension [PDF]

Circulation, 1998
Background —Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy has been established as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease in adults. Recent research has refined this relationship by determining a cutpoint of 51 g/m 2.7 for LV mass index indicative of increased risk and defining LV geometric patterns ...

Impact of Echocardiographic Left Ventricular Geometry on Clinical Prognosis [PDF]

Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2014
Abnormal left ventricular (LV) geometry, including LV hypertrophy (LVH), is associated with increased risk of major cardiovascular (CV) events and all-cause mortality and may be an independent predictor of morbid CV events. Patients with LVH have increased risk of congestive heart failure, coronary heart disease, sudden cardiac death and stroke.
