BACKGROUND: While there have been marked advances in diagnostic and therapeutic
strategies for venous thromboembolism, our understanding of its clinical epidemiology is …

Background—The heart progressively remodels over the life course, yet longitudinal data
characterizing such remodeling in the community are limited. Methods and Results—Using …

Context Echocardiographic measures of left ventricular (LV) structure and function are
heritable phenotypes of cardiovascular disease. Objective To identify common genetic …

Background—Information is limited on the longitudinal tracking of left ventricular (LV) mass
over the adult life course and the determinants of such change. Methods and Results—We …

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to describe the temporal trends in prevalence of
left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD) in individuals without and with heart failure (HF) …

Background—Aortic root remodeling in adulthood is known to be associated with
cardiovascular outcomes. However, there is a lack of longitudinal data defining the clinical …

Objectives: This study sought to evaluate pattern and clinical correlates of change in left
ventricular (LV) geometry over a 4-year period in the community; it also assessed whether …

Higher left ventricular (LV) mass, wall thickness, and internal dimension are associated with
increased heart failure (HF) risk. Whether different LV hypertrophy patterns vary with respect …

Transthoracic echocardiography is the primary cardiac imaging modality for the detection of
Cancer Therapeutics‐Related Cardiac Dysfunction (CTRCD) through evaluation of serial …

Background—There is rapidly growing interest in applying measures of myocardial strain
and synchrony in clinical investigations and in practice; data are limited regarding their …
