Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship of left ventricular (LV)
mass and geometry measured with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to incident …

Background and Purpose—Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is a risk factor for
cardiovascular events, but its effect on ischemic stroke risk is established mainly in whites …

Objectives: The goal of this study was to examine the cross-sectional associations of
cardiovascular risk factors with left ventricular (LV) geometry and systolic function measured …

Background Elevated left ventricular mass index (LVMI) and concentric left ventricular (LV)
remodeling are related to adverse cardiovascular disease (CVD) events. The predictive …

Background Few data exist on the long-term risk prediction of elevated left ventricular (LV)
mass quantified by MRI for cardiovascular (CV) events in a contemporary, ethnically diverse …

Objectives: This study sought to understand prognostic implications of increased baseline
left ventricular (LV) mass and geometric patterns in a high risk acute myocardial infarction …

Methods to index left ventricular (LV) mass, measured by cardiovascular magnetic
resonance (CMR), for body size have not been investigated. The purposes of this study were …

Background—The purpose of this study was to identify determinants of 20-year change in
left ventricular (LV) mass (LVM) and LV geometry in black and white young adults in the …

Background Although left ventricular cardiac geometric indices such as size and sphericity
characterize adverse remodeling and have prognostic value in symptomatic patients, little is …

Objective To investigate whether sphericity volume index (SVI), an indicator of left ventricular
(LV) remodelling, predicts incident cardiovascular events (coronary heart disease, CHD; all …
