Obesity in childhood, even without hypertension, is associated with early impairment of longitudinal myocardial deformation.
Is obesity associated with impaired myocardial deformation properties in non-hypertensive children?
Obesity in childhood, even without hypertension, is associated with early impairment of longitudinal myocardial deformation.
Z.-Z. Song (2007) conducted a letter in Obesity in non-hypertensive children. Obesity was evaluated on Longitudinal myocardial function / systolic myocardial deformation properties. Obesity in non-hypertensive children is associated with significant reduction in systolic myocardial deformation properties involving both the right and left ventricles.
