Why the study?
Does a new allometric height-weight index for LV mass by CMR improve the predictive value for cardiovascular events compared to un-indexed LV mass in participants without baseline cardiovascular disease?

Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
An allometric height-weight index for CMR-derived LV mass is a better predictor of cardiovascular events than un-indexed LV mass.

Wall et al. (2010) conducted an editorial in Left ventricular hypertrophy (n=5,004). Left ventricular hypertrophy defined by new allometric height-weight index vs. No left ventricular hypertrophy was evaluated on Coronary heart disease or stroke (HR 2.4).
