Couri 1 1 Prairie Cardiovascular Consultants, Ltd. Academic Editor: Amgad N. Received 15 Feb Accepted 19 Apr Published 30 Jun Abstract Left ventricular hypertrophy is a maladaptive response to chronic pressure overload and an important risk factor for atrial fibrillation, diastolic heart failure, systolic heart failure, and sudden death in patients with hypertension. Factors Promoting Left Ventricular Hypertrophy It is now appreciated that left ventricular hypertrophy is mediated not only by the mechanical stress of pressure overload, but also by various neurohormonal substances that independently exert trophic effects on myocytes and nonmyocytes in the heart [ 2 ].

Abstract Left-ventricular hypertrophy LVH is a cardinal manifestation of hypertensive organ damage associated with an increased cardiovascular CV risk.
Introduction Left ventricular hypertrophy LVH secondary to arterial hypertension is a complex cardiac phenotype resulting from the response of myocyte and non-myocyte components to mechanical and neuro-humoral stimuli. Patients and methods Search strategy and study selection We reviewed medical literature in order to identify articles evaluating echocardiographic LVH prevalence in hypertensive patients.
