  • Title: The influence of hemodynamic factors on left ventricular mass.
    Author: Virtanen MP, Nieminen T, Kähönen MA, Majahalme SK, Tuomisto MT, Turjanmaa VM, Kööbi T.
    Journal: J Hum Hypertens; 2008 Feb; 22(2):126-8. PubMed ID: 17653242.
    Abstract:
    We evaluated the relationship between the variability in the left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and different hemodynamic factors. LVMI was associated with blood pressure and, in one subgroup, strongly to arterial pulse wave velocity (PWV). High physical activity was connected to increased LVMI, and a combination of low stroke index (SI) and high heart rate (HR) to decreased LVMI.
