Is there an association between silent cerebral white matter lesions and left ventricular mass and geometry in asymptomatic middle-aged patients with essential hypertension?
Cerebral white matter lesions are closely associated with concentric left ventricular hypertrophy in asymptomatic middle-aged hypertensive patients, independent of blood pressure.
There is a close association between cerebral WMLs and concentric LVH in asymptomatic middle-aged hypertensive patients, independent of blood pressure values.
Sierra et al. (Sat,) studied this question.
