Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) measured by electrocardiography (ECG LVH) in hypertensive patients has been shown to be associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular sequelae. Analysis of the ...

The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical value of the apex beat and two ECG voltage criteria in the detection of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) while considering two distances, from ...

Objectives: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Various electrocardiographic criteria for LVH have differing sensitivities and ...

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is when the heart’s main pumping chamber, the left ventricle, becomes thicker and less able to pump blood efficiently. It usually develops because of another heart ...

In this review, the authors discuss the role of ECG in prediction of stroke. ECG plays an important role in detection of several stroke risk factors/predictors including atrial fibrillation and left ...

WHEN medical terminology was less precise the expression "strained heart" was employed at times to describe obscurely but ominously diseased hearts. This diagnosis is no longer made, but currently the ...

Objective: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a major cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality all over the world. The combined effect of volume and pressure overload seen in patients with CKD is ...

Right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) occurs when the right ventricular wall thickens due to chronic pressure overload, similar to that of left ventricular hypertrophy. Right ventricular hypertrophy is ...

Sunjay Kapur, who died last month while playing a polo match in London, died of natural causes, according to the Surrey coroner’s report. The businessman whose passing has sparked a tussle over the ...
