Cumulative blood pressure from early adulthood to middle age is associated with left atrial remodelling and subclinical dysfunction assessed by three-dimensional echocardiography: A prospective post hoc analysis from the coronary artery risk development in young adults study
European Heart Journal – Cardiovascular Imaging Jul 04, 2018
Vasconcellos HD, et al. - Using three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE), researchers investigated the link between cumulative blood pressure (BP) from young adulthood to middle age with left atrial (LA) structure/function.
