Smoking cessation is associated with regression of electrocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy: A 6-year retrospective observational study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
BackgroundElectrocardiographic left ventricular hypertrophy is a known risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Although smoking cessation has general cardiovascular benefits, its impact on left ventricular hypertrophy regression remains ...

Reversible Treatment of Pressure Overload‐Induced Left Ventricular Hypertrophy through Drd5 Nucleic Acid Delivery Mediated by Functional Polyaminoglycoside

Advanced Science, 2021
Left ventricular hypertrophy and fibrosis are major risk factors for heart failure, which require timely and effective treatment. Genetic therapy has been shown to ameliorate hypertrophic cardiac damage.

The burden, correlates and outcomes of left ventricular hypertrophy among young Africans with first ever stroke in Tanzania

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background Left ventricular hypertrophy is a pathophysiological response often due to chronic uncontrolled hypertension. Our primary aim was to investigate the magnitude, correlates and outcomes of left ventricular hypertrophy as a surrogate maker for ...

Concentric left ventricular remodeling and aortic stiffness: a comparison of obesity and hypertension. [PDF]

, 2013
BACKGROUND: Increased thoracic ascending aortic stiffness is thought to contribute to concentric left ventricular hypertrophy and increased mortality, a pattern seen in hypertension.

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

, 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.

Left ventricular hypertrophy [PDF]

BMJ, 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 ...
