Resistance-trained anabolic-androgenic steroid users exhibit significantly higher calibrated integrated backscatter than non-users, correlating with altered left ventricular geometry and function.
Does Anabolic-Androgenic Steroid use alter calibrated integrated backscatter and left ventricular geometry/function in resistance trained individuals?
Calibrated integrated backscatter is elevated in AAS users and correlates with altered LV geometry and diastolic function, suggesting its potential utility in identifying early cardiac risk.
Absolute Event Rate: 0% vs 0%
Resistance trained individuals using AAS have significantly higher ciB than non-users, suggesting differential myocardial tissue characteristics within this population. The presence of higher levels of ciB was significantly associated with LV geometry and LV diastolic function which may indicate a role of ciB in identifying early cardiac risk in this population.
