Article Synopsis
- This study analyzed how QRS prolongation (a specific measurement in ECG) affects heart health differently based on sex and race in healthy adults participating in the Dallas Heart Study.
- Researchers found that longer QRS durations were linked to higher left ventricular mass and volume and lower ejection fraction, with differences seen between men and women and Black and White individuals.
- Although longer QRS durations were associated with a higher risk of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) in women, the link was less clear for men and not significant for either race after adjusting for cardiovascular risk factors.
