Arterial hypertension is a leading cause of death globally. Due to ageing, the rising
incidence of obesity, and socioeconomic and environmental changes, its incidence …

Background The utility of echocardiographic left ventricular (LV) geometry in the prediction
of stroke/coronary heart disease (CHD) and all-cause mortality is not well characterized …

Cardiac remodeling is recognized as an important aspect of cardiovascular disease (CVD)
progression. Machine learning (ML) techniques were applied to basic clinical parameters …

Altered blood pressure (BP) is a common phenomenon in acute ischemic stroke (AIS), with
high BP being the most frequent scenario. The pathophysiology of BP changes in AIS is …

We once again present an overview of the progress in cardiovascular imaging as seen
through the pages of JACC: Cardiovascular Imaging. Your Journal continues to witness …

Objectives Reduced cardiac outflow due to left ventricular hypertrophy has been suggested
as a potential risk factor for development of cerebral white matter disease. Our study aimed …

Background and Purpose: Low blood pressure (BP) is associated with higher stroke
mortality, although the factors underlying this association have not been fully explored. We …

Background: There are four geometric patterns (normal geometry, concentric remodeling,
concentric and eccentric hypertrophy) used to describe cardiac remodeling. Although left …

BACKGROUND: Acute kidney injury (AKI) after major noncardiac surgery is commonly
attributed to cardiovascular dysfunction. Identifying novel associations between preoperative …

Background and aims Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), assessed by electrocardiogram
(ECG), is associated with increased risk for stroke. However, few studies that evaluated …
