Role of Aldosterone in Left Ventricular Hypertrophy in Hypertension

Aldosterone induces cardiac fibrosis in experimental animal models, but only limited information is available on the association between aldosterone and left ventricular (LV) hypertrophy in human beings. The aim of the present study was to determine the role of aldosterone in LV geometry and to inve...
