Reference Intervals and Percentile Curves of Echocardiographic Left Ventricular Mass, Relative Wall Thickness and Ejection Fraction in Healthy Children and Adolescents
(Springer, 2018-10)
Despite the clinical utility of echocardiography to measure cardiac target organ injury (TOI) there are scarcities of data about the reference intervals (RIs) and percentiles of left ventricular (LV) mass (LVM) and derived ...
Sex-related difference in left ventricular mass in nonhypertensive young adults: role of arterial pressure
(Pulsus Group Inc, 2012-08)
Blood pressure (BP) is higher in men than in women at similar ages through adult life. Interestingly, a similar pattern is detected in left ventricular mass (LVM), classically attributed to differences in body size. However, ...
Cardiovascular disease in pediatric patients under chronic peritoneal dialysis
(Sociedad Chilena de Pediatría, 2017)
Peritoneal dialysis (PD) is the most common renal replacement therapy used in pediatric patients
with end stage renal disease. This population has a mortality rate 1,000 times greater compare to pediatric
population, ...

Spironolactone is secure and reduces left ventricular hypertrophy in hemodialysis patients
(2015)
There is recent evidence that aldosterone play a role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease in dialysis patients, which leads to the opportunity to block its actions for the benefit of these patients. In nondialytic ...
Inverse allometry: foundations for a bioinspired LVH-prediction model
(Springer, 2013)
Allometry, in general biology, measures the relative growth of a part in relation to the whole living organism. Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is the heart adaptation to excessive load (systolic or diastolic) that leads ...
