Sex-related Differences in Left Ventricular Geometry among Hypertensive Nigerians

Key Points

This research aims to examine the differences in left ventricular geometry related to sex in hypertensive individuals.
Analyzed hypertensive cohort

Structured PICO

Is female sex associated with left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertensive Nigerians?

P

Population

Hypertensive Nigerians

O

Outcome

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) / Left ventricular geometrysurrogate

Female sex is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertensive Nigerians, suggesting a potentially higher risk for cardiovascular morbidity.

Abstract

Our study showed an association between female sex and LVH within our hypertensive cohort. This finding suggests that females may be at a greater risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality compared to males.
