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

Left ventricular hypertrophy is a maladaptive response to chronic pressure overload and an important risk factor for atrial fibrillation, diastolic heart failure, systolic heart failure, and sudden death in patients with hypertension.

Obese subjects show sex-specific differences in right ventricular hypertrophy [PDF]
As right ventricular (RV) remodeling in obesity remains underinvestigated, and the impact of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction on RV hypertrophy is unknown, we aimed to investigate whether (1) sex-specific patterns of RV remodeling exist in ...
