Left ventricular hypertrophy and hypertension
Progress in Cardiovascular Diseases, 2020Hypertension (HTN) is a major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD) morbidity and mortality. The left ventricle (LV) is a primary target for HTN end-organ damage. In addition to being a marker of HTN, LV geometrical changes: concentric remodeling, concentric or eccentric LV hypertrophy (LVH) are major independent risk factors for not ...

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Arrhythmogenesis [PDF]
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) poses an independent risk of increased morbidity and mortality, including atrial arrhythmias, ventricular arrhythmias, and sudden cardiac death. The most common causes of LVH are hypertension and valvular heart disease.

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Hypertension
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1983Elsewhere in this issue (p 1285), Sparrow et al report that ECG signs suggestive of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) might serve as predictors of subsequent hypertension. These epidemiologic observations raise new questions regarding cardiac involvement in hypertension; the latter has recently been a rapidly evolving field.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1968
The electrocardiogram or vectorcardiogram often indicates features compatible with left ventricular hypertrophy in persons who do not have the condition. Increased QRS voltage, increased QRS duration, and ST-T changes in an isolated electrocardiogram or vectorcardiogram may mislead the physician, but serial records noting progressive changes ...

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
The presence of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) as a treatable entity is of particular importance in patients with primary hypertension. Because LVH is associated with a strong risk of adverse clinical events (eg, heart failure, ischemic events, and cardiovascular death) and because evidence from retrospective studies suggests that regression of LVH,

Echocardiography, 2018
The myocardial structure differs between secondary left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We investigated left ventricular function of these two types of hypertrophy using multilayer strain analysis with two‐dimensional

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy and Arterial Hypertrophy
1997In the most recent WHO recommendations of 1996 it was reiterated that the classification of HT still remains based on the actual BP figures but also on the importance of target organ lesions. Thus the study of cardiac and vascular function and in particular the presence of hypertrophy or remodeling is of importance.

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Athletes
The American Journal of Cardiology, 1997Left ventricular wall thickness >1.3 cm, septal-to-posterior wall ratios > 1.5, diastolic left ventricular size >6.0 cm, and eccentric or concentric remodeling are rare in athletes. Values outside of these cutoffs in an athlete of any age probably represent a pathologic state.
