Sudden unexpected cardiac death is the most devastating feature of the natural history of hype~rophic cardiomyopathy and in many patients is the first clinical manifestation of the disease (1-7). Although left ventricular hypertrophy appears to be an important determinant of many functional features of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the reialion between the magnitude of hypertrophy and the occurr...

\s=b\Obesity has been documented to be an independent risk factor for sudden death and other cardiovascular mortality. The present study was designed to monitor and quantify cardiac arrhythmias in obese subjects with and without eccentric left ventricular hypertrophy, who were matched with regard to arterial pressure, age, sex, and height with lean subjects. Prevalence of premature ventricular ...
متن کاملIncidence of sudden cardiac death associated with coronary artery occlusion in dogs with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy is reduced by chronic beta-adrenergic blockade.
Because beta-adrenergic blockade has as one of its many effects altered electrophysiological abnormalities after dogs with left ventricular hypertrophy have been subjected to coronary occlusion, we tested the hypothesis that metoprolol (200-400 mg/day) would reduce mortality rates in dogs with one-kidney, one clip left ventricular hypertrophy while a similar reduction in arterial pressure with ...

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) has been identified as one of the strongest blood pressure-independent risk factors for sudden death, acute myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, and other cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Hypertensive patients with LVH have a significantly greater prevalence of premature ventricular contractions and complex ventricular arrhythmias than do pa...

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is one of the vicious organ damages of essential hypertension. It contributes a lot to high mortality of essential hypertension due to sudden cardiac death, ventricular arrhythmia and heart failure. Many factors involve in the pathogenesis of hypertension-induced LVH including inherited variants as well as environmental factors. For the genic influence, nucleu...

Hypertension (HTN) is the most common cause of hypertensive heart disease, which comprises of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), left atrial enlargement, diastolic dysfunction, functional mitral regurgitation and neurohormonal changes. All of these lead to significant arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation (AF) as well as ventricular arrhythmias, and are known risk factors for sudden cardiac ...
