ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in Left Ventricular Mass Index (LVMI) From Baseline to End of Study (Week 36)Baseline to end of study (Week 36)
Left ventricular mass index (LVMI) was measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An increase in LVMI indicates hypertrophy of the left ventricle. This could be a normal reversible response to cardiovascular conditioning (athletic heart) or an abnormal irreversible response to chronically increased volume load (preload) or increased pressure load (afterload). Thickening of the ventricular muscle results in increased left ventricular pressure, increased end-systolic volume, and decreased end-diastolic volume, causing an overall reduction in cardiac output.
