Diastolic function alteration mechanisms in physiologic hypertrophy versus pathologic hypertrophy are elucidated by model-based Doppler E-wave analysis

Diastolic function alteration mechanisms in physiologic hypertrophy versus pathologic hypertrophy are elucidated by model-based Doppler E-wave analysis

Athletic training can result in increased left ventricular (LV) wall thickness, termed physiologic hypertrophy (PhH). By contrast, pathologic hypertrophy (PaH) can be due to hypertension, aortic stenosis, or genetic mutation causing hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Because morphologic (LV dimensio...
