Hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy [PDF]
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an abnormal increase in left ventricular mass. which is a marker for and contributes to coronary events, stroke, heart failure, peripheral arterial disease, and cardiovascular mortality in patients with hypertension (1-12).

High-Throughput Precision Phenotyping of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy With Cardiovascular Deep Learning [PDF]
This cohort study assesses the accuracy of a deep learning algorithm in measuring left ventricular dimensions and identifying patients with increased wall thickness who may benefit from additional screening for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and cardiac ...

Aim We tested the hypothesis that dapagliflozin may regress left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in people with type 2 diabetes (T2D). Methods and results We randomly assigned 66 people (mean age 67 ± 7 years, 38 males) with T2D, LVH, and controlled blood ...

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Hypertension
The level of left ventricular (LV) mass as measured by echocardiography or other techniques in hypertensive patients reflects the integrated effects of the level of arterial pressure, the concomitant volume load imposed on the heart, and of alterations in arterial waveform morphology as well as of body size and non-hemodynamic variables.

It has been argued that metabolically healthy obesity (MHO) does not increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether, in a population of obese children/adolescents, the metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO ...

FGF23/FGFR4-mediated left ventricular hypertrophy is reversible
Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23 is a phosphaturic hormone that directly targets cardiac myocytes via FGF receptor (FGFR) 4 thereby inducing hypertrophic myocyte growth and the development of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in rodents.

Left ventricular hypertrophy in children, adolescents and young adults with sickle cell anemia
OBJECTIVE: The aims of this study were to estimate the frequency of left ventricular hypertrophy and to identify variables associated with this condition in under 25-year-old patients with sickle cell anemia.METHODS: A cross-sectional study was performed
