Prognostic Value of Cardiac Troponin I and Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Mortality of Chronic Hemodialysis Patients [PDF]

open access: yes
Cardiovascular events are the most common cause of death in hemodialysis patients. Cardiac biomarkers and especially Cardiac troponin I has been used as a prognostic marker in hemodialysis patients and there is some controversies about its value.

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Pharmacology, 1991
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), an increase in the muscle mass of the left ventricle, has been identified as a powerful risk factor for future cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. The risk of acute myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, sudden death, and other cardiovascular events increases six- to eightfold with the presence of LVH ...
