The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis of studies of the association of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and atrial fibrillation (AF), especially the predictive and prognostic role of LVH. We searched Medline, Embase, and the Cochrane Library from inception through 10 April 2020. A total of 16 cohorts (133,091 individuals) were included. Compared with the normal subjects, patients with LVH were more susceptible to AF (RR = 1.46, 95% CI, 1.32-1.60). In patients with AF and LVH, there was a higher risk of all-cause mortality during 3.95 years (RR = 1.60, 95% CI, 1.42-1.79), and these patients were more likely to progress to persistent or paroxysmal AF (RR = 1.45, 95% CI, 1.20-1.76) than were patients without LVH. After catheter ablation of AF, patients with LVH were more likely to recur (RR = 1.58, 95% CI, 1.27-1.95). LVH is strongly associated with AF and has a negative impact on outcome in patients with AF.

Left Ventricular Hemodynamic Forces Changes in Fabry Disease: A Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Study.

J Magn Reson Imaging

January 2025

Department of Cardiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, Sichuan, China.

Background: Hemodynamic force (HDF) from cardiac MRI can indicate subclinical myocardial dysfunction, and help identify early cardiac changes in patients with Fabry disease (FD). The hemodynamic change in FD patients remains unclear.

Purpose: To explore HDF changes in FD and the potential of HDF measurements as diagnostic markers indicating early cardiac changes in FD.

Aims: T1 mapping on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is useful for diagnosis and prognostication in patients with light-chain cardiac amyloidosis (AL-CA). We conducted this study to evaluate the performance of T1 mapping parameters, derived from artificial intelligence (AI)-automated segmentation, for detection of cardiac amyloidosis (CA) in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and their prognostic values in patients with AL-CA.

Methods And Results: A total of 300 consecutive patients who underwent CMR for differential diagnosis of LVH were analyzed.

Background: Transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTRCA) is a prevalent disease, and it can be associated with heart failure (HF), left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH), atrial fibrillation (AF), and aortic stenosis (AS).

Aim: The study aims to detect the prevalence of ATTRCA in the symptomatic AS population.

Method: A single-center prospective study screening for ATTRCA in patients diagnosed with symptomatic severe AS undergoing aortic valve (AV) intervention.

Diabetic microvascular complications are associated with left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.

J Diabetes Complications

December 2024

Center for Endocrine Metabolism and Immune Diseases, Beijing Luhe Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing 101149, China; Beijing Key Laboratory of Diabetes Research and Care, Beijing 101149, China. Electronic address:

Background: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an important and common pathologic change in the heart of patients with diabetes mellitus. Microvascular complications have been reported to be involved in the development and process of LVH. This study aimed to explore the association between diabetic microvascular complications and LVH in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Comparison of Influence of Office and 24-h Central Aortic Blood Pressure on Target Organ Damage in Hypertension.

J Clin Hypertens (Greenwich)

January 2025

Department of Geriatrics, Medical Center on Aging of Shanghai Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, Shanghai, China.

The aim of this study was to explore whether 24-h ambulatory central (aortic) blood pressure (BP) has an advantage over office central aortic BP in screening for hypertension-mediated target organ damage (HMOD). A total of 714 inpatients with primary hypertension and the presence of several cardiovascular risk factors or complications involving clinical HMOD were enrolled. Twenty-four hour central aortic BP was measured by means of a noninvasive automated oscillometric device (Mobil-O-Graph).
