Key result
Giant T-wave inversions linked to ~96% greater apical wall thickness versus healthy controls.
Cross-Sectional (n=136)
Absolute Event Rate: 8.1% vs 4.14%
p-value: p=<0.001
Background Unexplainable giant T-wave inversions in the precordial leads with apical wall thickness 15 mm using cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR).

Lu et al. (2016) conducted a cross-sectional in Giant T-wave inversions (n=136). Giant T-wave inversions vs. Healthy volunteers was evaluated on Apical thickness in males (p=<0.001). Subjects with giant T-wave inversions and apical wall thickness <15 mm had significantly thicker apical walls (8.10 mm vs 4.14 mm in males) and decreased apical angles compared to healthy controls.
