Background: Elevated left ventricular (LV) mass/end-diastolic volume ratio (LVM/EDV) has
been associated with higher evidence of myocardial fibrosis and dysfunction in hypertensive …

Aims Women with severe aortic stenosis (AS) have better long-term outcome after
transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) but worse survival after surgical aortic valve …

Background Left ventricular (LV) remodeling in severe aortic valve stenosis (AS) is a
complex process that goes beyond hypertrophic response. Reparative/replacement fibrosis …

Calcified aortic stenosis is a condition that affects the valve and the myocardium. As the
valve narrows, left ventricular hypertrophy occurs initially as an adaptive mechanism to …

In severe aortic stenosis (AS), there are conflicting data on the prognostic implications of left
ventricular (LV) hypertrophy (LVH). We aimed to characterize the LV geometry, myocardial …

Aims Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) in aortic stenosis (AS) varies widely before and after
aortic valve replacement (AVR), and deeper phenotyping beyond traditional global …

Objectives Left ventricular reverse remodeling (LVRR) is associated with improved outcome
in patients with heart failure. Factors associated with and predictive of LVRR in patients with …

Our understanding of the complexities of valvular heart disease (VHD) has evolved in recent
years, primarily because of the increased use of multimodality imaging (MMI). Whilst …

(1) Background: Altered cardiac morphology and function are associated with increased
risks of adverse cardiac events in hypertension. Our study aimed to assess left ventricular …

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is considered a cardiac condition with life-threatening
complications. Detected LVH is a strong predictor of cardiovascular diseases and death …
