Frequency of Left Atrial Enlargement According to Different Modes of Indexing in Overweight and Obese Individuals.

: Current guidelines recommend indexing left atrial volume (LAV) by body surface area (BSA). However, in overweight and obese individuals this may result in the underestimation of left atrial enlargement (LAE). The aim of our study was to assess whether alternative LAV indexing to height and/or height-squared better identifies individuals with LAE among those who are overweight and/or obese.
