Assessment of subclinical left ventricular changes in essential hypertensive patients with hyperuricemia: A three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography study

Assessment of subclinical left ventricular changes in essential hypertensive patients with hyperuricemia: A three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography study

Objective: To evaluate the effect of hyperuricemia (HU) on subclinical changes of left ventricle (LV) function and structure in patients with hypertension (HT) using three-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography (3DSTE) and to explore the relationships between serum uric acid (SUA) levels and...
