| Summary: | The study investigates the correlation between structure-geometrical cardiac remodeling and bone mineral density (BMD) in essential arterial hypertension (EAH). The study included 158 Stage I-II EAH patients and 50 healthy controls. All participants underwent echocardiography and osteodensitometry. In climacteric EAH women, reduced BMD was associated with adverse, concentric remodeling variant - increased myocardial mass index and relative left ventricular wall thickness (r=-0,49; p=0,0014 and r=-0,62. p=0,0001, respectively). Including BMD measurement into EAH diagnostic algorithm provides additional benefits for individual total cardiovascular risk assessment in climacteric women. |
