Left ventricular hypertrophy [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1995
Left ventricular hypertrophy is often assumed to be little more than a marker for hypertension. In fact, the relation between diastolic or systolic blood pressure and left ventricular mass is not always close.1 2 Left ventricular hypertrophy is an independent risk factor for myocardial infarction and death in men and women with hypertension3 4 and in ...

Electrocardiographic (ECG) criteria for determining left ventricular mass in young healthy men; data from the LARGE Heart study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Doubts remain over the use of the ECG in identifying those with increased left ventricular (LV) mass. This is especially so in young individuals, despite their high prevalence of ECG criteria for LV hypertrophy.
