When right atrial enlargement occurs, it does not take longer for cardiac action potentials to travel through the atrial myocardium (similar to left atrial enlargement). However, the amplitude of ...

Lipomatous hypertrophy of the atrial septum (LHAS) was diagnosed on the basis of the typical morphology and location. LHAS is a benign hyperplasia of lipocytes in the atrial septum (more exactly ...

In addition, echocardiographic variables, such left atrial enlargement, left ventricular wall thickness, and impaired left ventricular systolic dysfunction are also risk factors for developing the ...

ECG plays an important role in detection of several stroke risk factors/predictors including atrial fibrillation and left ventricular hypertrophy ... passage from the right-sided circulation.

Background: Atrial function is an integral part of cardiac function that is often neglected. The presence of left ventricule hypertrophy (LVH) due to arterial hypertension may impair atrial function.
