Association between serum Mg2+ concentrations and cardiovascular organ damage in a cohort of adult subjects [PDF]

, 2020
Magnesium (Mg2+) levels are associated with insulin resistance, hypertension, atherosclerosis, and type 2 diabetes (T2DM). We evaluated the clinical utility of physiological Mg2+ in assessing subclinical cardiovascular organ damage including increased ...

Incidence of left ventricular hypertrophy in children with kidney disease: impact of method of indexation of left ventricular mass [PDF]

European Journal of Echocardiography, 2009
Patients with chronic kidney disease are at high risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Increased left ventricular mass (LVM) has been shown to be an adverse prognostic factor. LVM may be indexed for body size by different methods related to height, weight, or body surface area (BSA).

Geographic Variation in Left Ventricular Mass and Mass Indices: A Systematic Review [PDF]

Heart, Lung and Circulation, 2010
Left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy, defined as an abnormal increase in LV mass (LVM), is an important prognostic indicator and therapeutic target. LVM is often divided by body surface area to derive indexed mass; however, this does not correctly identify pathological LV hypertrophy in all people, especially when body composition is altered, or in ...
