Relationship between right ventricular systolic function, mean pulmonary arterial pressure and left ventricular ejection fraction in hypertensive heart failure patients seen at the obafemi awolowo university teaching hospitals complex, Ile-Ife Atendi AB, Ogunyemi SA, Adebayo RA, et al.. Relationship between right ventricular systolic function, mean...
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an independent risk factor for adverse cardiac outcomes in hypertensive patients.
This study is designed to assess the cardiovascular responses to treadmill exercise among Nigerian hypertensives with echocardiographically proven LVH.
Fifty hypertensive patients with LVH (27 males and 23 females) between 30 and...
Introduction.
Hypertension is the commonest cause of sudden cardiac death in Nigeria and a notable cause or contributor to valvular heart disease in patients with hypertension. It engenders this catastrophe via several pathophysiological mechanisms. Its prevalence has continued to rise significantly and the damage it does to the valves poses addit...
Objectives: This study evaluated left ventricular function, using echocardiographic methods, in Nigerian DIABETICS with additional aim of assessing the effect of coexisting hypertension.
Design: A descriptive cross sectional study
Setting: Hospital based study
Subjects: Ninety five subjects aged 30-60 years comprising 31 hypertensive DIABETICS, 30...
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an independent cardiac risk factor in hypertensives and the structural classification of left ventricular (LV) geometry provides additional prognostic information. Ambulatory blood pressure (ABP) monitoring has been shown to be superior to office blood pressure (BP) in relation to hypertension LVH. We investiga...
This study evaluated normotensive diabetic patients' blood pressure response to graded exercise and their echocardiographic pattern of left ventricular geometry.
A descriptive, cross-sectional, hospital-based study was carried out on 30 normotensive type 2 diabetic patients and 34 controls, aged 30 to 60 years. The outcome measures were to determin...
