Association of obesity phenotypes with left ventricular mass index and left ventricular hypertrophy in children and adolescents [PDF]
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 ...

Correlations between left ventricular mass index and cerebrovascular lesion [PDF]
Abstract Left ventricular (LV) mass and LV geometry are well-established measures of hypertension chronicity and severity, have a prognostic value on cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, and are related to asymptomatic cerebral small-artery disease (SAD) and largeartery disease (LAD).

Assessment of left ventricular geometrical patterns and function among hypertensive patients at a tertiary hospital, Northern Tanzania [PDF]
Background With hypertension, the cardiovascular system changes to adapt to the varying neuro-humoral and hemodynamic changes and this may lead to the development of different left ventricular geometric patterns, each carrying a different risk profile ...
