Description
Summary:The paper presents the results of the ultrasound echocardiography among 126 hypertensive women in late fertile period (LFP). The comparative analysis of left heart structure, geometry, and volume-spherical parameters demonstrated that in LFP women with arterial hypertension (AH) and disturbed estradiol levels, heart remodelling is characterised by more advanced left heart geometry disturbances than in their peers with normal estradiol levels. The most prevalent variant of disturbed left heart geometry was heart remodelling with left ventricular hypertrophy, specifically eccentric hypertrophy.
