Key result
LV remodeling in essential hypertension is linked to higher rates of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias.
Why the study?
Differences in arrhythmias among various left ventricular geometric patterns in patients with essential hypertension were not well characterized.
Does left ventricular remodeling increase the incidence and severity of arrhythmias in patients with essential hypertension?
Observational (n=179)
Does left ventricular remodeling increase the incidence and severity of arrhythmias in patients with essential hypertension?
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
Left ventricular remodeling in essential hypertension is independently associated with a higher incidence and severity of atrial and ventricular arrhythmias.

周荣 et al. (2002) conducted an observational in Essential hypertension (n=179). Left ventricular remodeling vs. Normal left ventricular geometry was evaluated on Incidence of atrial, ventricular, and complex ventricular arrhythmias. Left ventricular remodeling in patients with essential hypertension was associated with a significantly higher incidence of atrial, ventricular, and complex ventricular arrhythmias compared to normal geometry.
