Key result
Effective blood pressure control by antihypertensive drugs can reverse left ventricular hypertrophy without depressing resting left ventricular performance.
Why the study?
Do antihypertensive drugs improve reversal of left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertensive patients?
Do antihypertensive drugs improve reversal of left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertensive patients?
Antihypertensive therapy that controls blood pressure without reflex cardiac stimulation can effectively reverse left ventricular hypertrophy while maintaining normal ventricular performance.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support antihypertensive therapy for LVH reversal without impairing LV performance; leaves open optimal agents and durability.
Tarazi et al. (1985) conducted a review in Hypertension with left ventricular hypertrophy. Antihypertensive drugs was evaluated on Reversal of left ventricular hypertrophy. Effective blood pressure control by antihypertensive drugs can reverse left ventricular hypertrophy without depressing resting left ventricular performance.
