Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an abnormal thickening of the left ventricular myocardium that occurs as an adaptive mechanism to increased afterload. The left ventricular myocytes ...

Left ventricular hypertrophy can be diagnosed on ECG with good specificity. When the myocardium is hypertrophied, there is a larger mass of myocardium for electrical activation to pass through ...

A higher incidence of LVH associated with persistent nondipping pattern reasonably represents cardiac response to a sustained increase of LV systolic stress throughout the 24-h period. Thus ...

Voltage criteria for LV hypertrophy (LVH) are frequently fulfilled, but correlate poorly with echocardiographic findings [16] and should not prompt further investigation in the absence of symptoms ...

Aim Differentiating physiological cardiac hypertrophy from pathology is challenging when the athlete presents with extreme anthropometry. While upper normal limits exist for maximal left ventricular ...

gmail.com Background Differentiating physiological left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in athletes from pathological hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) can be challenging. This study assesses the ...
