Abstract
Background This study explores the impact of intensive blood pressure (BP) control on left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) incidence and evaluates the prognostic implications of LVH status (pre-existing/new-onset/persist ent/regression) using Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT) Electrocardiogram Data.
Methods Poisson regression was used to assess new-onset LVH and LVH regression rates. Multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard models...
