Left ventricular hypertrophy associated with hypertension and its relevance as a risk factor for complications.
TL;DR: Preliminary findings of close relations between LV mass and arterial disease and between the change in LV mass during antihypertensive treatment and subsequent events contribute to explaining the strong predictive value of LV mass.

Is there a "subcortical" profile of attentional dysfunction? A comparison of patients with Huntington's and Parkinson's diseases on a global-local focused attention task.

TL;DR: It was found that response times of patients with PD were comparable to those of similarly-aged controls regardless of stimulus consistency, and difference scores between RTs for inconsistent versus consistent stimuli were not correlated with overall level of dementia or disease severity for either the HD or PD group.

Relative fat-free mass deficiency and left ventricular adaptation to obesity: the Strong Heart Study
Giovanni de Simone,Fabrizio Pasanisi,Aldo L. Ferrara,Mary J. Roman,Elisa T. Lee,Franco Contaldo,Barbara V. Howard,Richard B. Devereux +7 more
TL;DR: In obese SHS participants, RFFMD is associated with higher levels of LV mass, an effect related to adiposity more than central fat distribution and typical of female gender, biological mechanisms of this association have to be better explored.

Ability of left ventricular stress-shortening relations, end-systolic stress/volume ratio and indirect indexes to detect severe contractile failure in ischemic or idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy
TL;DR: The ability of several proposed indirect and direct indexes of left ventricular LV) systolic performance and contractility to detect clinically important LV dysfunction was evaluated in 42 patients with refractory dilated cardiomyopathy studied with right-sided heart catheterization and M-mode echocardiography.

Left ventricular mass and incident hypertension in individuals with initial optimal blood pressure: the Strong Heart Study.
Giovanni de Simone,Richard B. Devereux,Marcello Chinali,Mary J. Roman,Thomas K. Welty,Elisa T. Lee,Barbara V. Howard +6 more
TL;DR: Left ventricular mass predicts incident arterial hypertension in individuals with initially optimal blood pressure, independent of body build, prevalent diabetes, and initial blood pressure.
