REGRESSION OF LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY AFTER SUCCESSFUL RENAL TRANSPLANTATION AMONG UREMIC PATIENTS
Recognition of the natural history and responsible leading factors for regression of left ventricular hypertrophy after successful renal transplantation are very important. The aim of this study was to assess the regression of left ventricular hypertrophy after successful renal transplantation among uremic patients. In this study 27 uremic patients (18 males and 9 females) with an average a...
متن کاملDevelopment and regression of left ventricular hypertrophy.
Left ventricular hypertrophy is an important adaptive response to chronic pressure or volume overload of the left ventricle. The different types and the pathophysiologic mechanisms of the development of left ventricular hypertrophy in various disease states are reviewed. Detection of left ventricular hypertrophy may be accomplished by electrocardiography and cardiac angiography. Echocardiograph...

Gender Differences in Left Ventricular Hypertrophy Regression To the Editor: We read with interest the article of Os et al1 about the effects of losartan in women with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy from the Losartan Intervention For Endpoint reduction in hypertension (LIFE) Study. The main finding in this posthoc analysis was that, compared with atenolol-based treatment, losarta...
متن کاملLeft Ventricular Hypertrophy Familial Predisposition of Left Ventricular Hypertrophy
METHODS Echocardiographic and anthropometric measurements were performed in 2,293 individuals who participated in the echocardiographic substudies of population-based MONICA Augsburg surveys. In addition, a total of 319 siblings of survey participants with echocardiographic evidence of LVH were evaluated. The risk of these siblings to present with LVH or abnormal LV geometry was estimated by co...
متن کاملEchocardiographic studies of regression of left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertension.
The availability of echocardiography has allowed direct determinations of left ventricular wall thickness and calculation of left ventricular mass. As a result, the past decade has witnessed a remarkable evolution in our understanding of structural changes in the heart. Moreover, cardiac hypertrophy was found to be reversible by some forms of therapy. In general, reduction of left ventricular m...
