LV = left ventricle, LVESV = left ventricular end systolic volume, LVEDV = left ventricular end diastolic volume, EF = ejection fraction. Mean left ventricle parameters for each stage of heart
We studied the structural and functional heart adaptations of 52 male triathletes compared with those of 22 active, nonathletic men, by 2-dimensional Doppler echocardiography. Left ventricular diastol
BackgroundThe association between arterial stiffness and left ventricular (LV) diastolic function has been demonstrated in several studies, but the samples size in those studies was small. This study
