Obesity and type 2 diabetes have additive effects on left ventricular remodelling in normotensive patients-a cross sectional study

BACKGROUND: It is unclear whether obesity and type 2 diabetes (T2D), either alone or in combination, induce left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) independent of hypertension. In the current study, we provide clarity on this issue by rigorously analysing patient left ventricular (LV) structure via clini...
