Artery Research, 2013 The relation between carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) and LV remodeling/dysfunction is confounded by the effect of blood pressure (BP). We evaluated the relationship between cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI), a less BP-dependent measure of ...

Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Evaluation in Obese Hypertensive Patients: Effect of Left Ventricular Mass Index Criteria [PDF]
Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2002 PURPOSE: To evaluate left ventricular mass (LVM) index in hypertensive and normotensive obese individuals. METHODS: Using M mode echocardiography, 544 essential hypertensive and 106 normotensive patients were evaluated, and LVM was indexed for body ...

PLoS ONE, 2013 BackgroundAdiponectin directly protects against cardiac remodeling. Despite this beneficial effect, most epidemiological studies have reported a negative relationship between adiponectin level and left ventricular mass index (LVMI).

Body mass index, type 2 diabetes, and left ventricular function [PDF]
Cardiovascular Diabetology, 2018 A recent study found that among individuals with a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 55%, global longitudinal strain was significantly lower in overweight patients (i.e., body mass index ≥ 25 kg/m2) with, but not in those without, type 2 ...

Left Ventricular Mass Index in Children with White Coat Hypertension [PDF]
The Journal of Pediatrics, 2008 To determine whether children with white coat hypertension (WCH) have evidence of target-organ damage by comparing the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) of subjects with WCH with that of matched normotensive and hypertensive controls.Each subject in the WCH group was matched by body mass index (BMI; +/- 10%), age (+/- 1 year), and sex to a ...

Associations among plasma adiponectin, hypertension, left ventricular diastolic function and left ventricular mass index [PDF]
Blood Pressure, 2004 The purpose of this study was to characterize the relationships among plasma adiponectin, essential hypertension, left ventricular diastolic function and left ventricular hypertrophy.Plasma adiponectin concentration was assessed by radioimmunoassay, and body mass index (BMI) was measured in 275 patients (138 women and 137 men).

Associations between Childhood Body Size, Composition, Blood Pressure and Adult Cardiac Structure: The Fels Longitudinal Study [PDF]
, 2014 Objectives To determine whether childhood body size, composition and blood pressure are associated with adult cardiac structure by estimating childhood “age of divergence.” Methods 385 female and 312 male participants in the Fels Longitudinal Study had ...
