Changes in Left Ventricular Mass and Geometry in the Older Adults: Role of Body Mass and Central Obesity.
Journal of the American Society of Echocardiography(2019)
摘要
•Limited data exist on modifiable predictors of LVH progression in older adults.•In an older multiethnic cohort, we assessed the changes of LV structure over time.•LV mass (LVM) increased and LV geometry worsened in over 30% of participants.•Predictors of LVM increase were baseline LVM, hypertension, BMI, and central obesity.•Central obesity remained associated with LVM progression after adjustment for BMI.
