| Popis: | Whether routine clinical parameters associated with left ventricular mass (LVM) enhance the performance of electrocardiographic (ECG) criteria for LV hypertrophy (LVH) detection and hence modify overall cardiovascular risk stratification is unknown. An approach to echocardiographic LVH detection was identified from ECG criteria and clinical variables [age, body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (SBP) and estimated glomerular filtration rate] associated with LVM in 621 participants of African ancestry. Performance (area under the receiver operating curve) and classification accuracy for LVH detection and the impact on cardiovascular risk stratification were determined. Compared to Cornell criteria alone, the combined use of Cornell criteria and clinical variables increased the performance (p |
