PP-090 Relationship between Plasma Thiol Levels with Left Ventricle Geometric Patterns and Left Ventricle Diastolic Functions in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Essential Hypertension




Objectives


Hypertension effects on ventricular remodeling and changes ventricular structure. This study was conducted to investigate the association between plasma thiol with left ventricle (LV) geometric patterns and LV diastolic functions in patients with newly diagnosed hypertension (HT).




Methods


We studied 113 patients with newly diagnosed HT and 45 healthy control subjects. After echocardiographic examination had been performed to all participants, four different geometric patterns, eccentric hypertrophy, concentric hypertrophy, concentric remodeling, and normal pattern, were identified in hypertensive patients according to LV mass index (LVMI) and relative wall thickness (RWT). Plasma SH levels were measured by a novel and automated spectrophotometric method.
