Echocardiographically Detected Left Ventricular Hypertrophy: Prevalence and Risk Factors: The Framingham Heart Study
Abstract
The prevalence of and risk factors associated with echocardiographically determined left ventricular hypertrophy were examined in 4976 participants in the Framingham Heart Study (age, 17 to 90 years). Left ventricular hypertrophy was detected in 356 men (16%) and 513 women (19%). Prevalence increases dramatically with age (P less than 0.001), with 33% of men and 49% of women age 70 or older affected. A significant association between blood pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy is present and occurs at levels of systolic pressure below 140 mm Hg (age adjusted, P less than 0.001). There is a ninefold (women) to tenfold (men) increase from leanest to most obese group (age adjusted, P less than 0.001). In multivariate analysis, age, blood pressure, obesity, valve disease, and myocardial infarction are independently associated in both sexes. We conclude that left ventricular hypertrophy is a common echocardiographic finding for which several risk factors can be identified. These findings support weight reduction and blood pressure control for prevention or regression of this condition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
