Clusters of AMI risk factors and their association with left ventricular hypertrophy: A population-based study within the Skaraborg Project, Sweden.
Research output: Contribution to journal › Article
Abstract
Risk factors for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) are known to cluster and to be differently distributed in men and women. The aim of this study was to sex-specifically explore clusters of acknowledged AMI risk factors by factor analysis, and to study whether such clusters are associated with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), used as a subclinical measure of CHD.
