Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is an independent predictor of cardiovascular morbidity and allcause mortality. Significantly, it is considered a modifiable cardiovascular risk factor as its regression increases overall survival and reduces the frequency of adverse cardiac events. A clear understanding of LVH pathogenesis is thus imperative to facilitate improved risk stratification and therapeutic intervention.

A prospective cohort study has been launched to study the frequency, distribution, and natural history of BPH in two well-defined small communities in Central Scotland.

Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is an X-linked disorder, caused by mutations in the DMD gene. This gene encodes dystrophin, a structural protein that links the sarcomere to the extracellular matrix via a trans-membrane protein complex. In the absence of dystrophin the associated glycoprotein complex fails to assemble, leading to sarcolemmal instability, impaired ion handling, skeletal muscle wasting and fibrosis. Patients become non-ambulant in their teens and seldom live past their third decade. Cardiac failure is one of the leading causes of death. The heart initially compensates for reduc

Abstract:
High blood pressure makes the heart work harder and promotes enlargement of the left ventricle, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), which is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease and death. LVH is characterized for the most part by two different sets of observable characteristics (genetic phenotypes): an enlarged left ventricle (1) due to increasing wall thickness and (2) due to increasing wall dilation. The molecular and pathological mechanisms by which either phenotype occurs is unknown. We do know, however, that both phenotypic variations of LVH are determined by quantitat

Background: To date, any non-invasive technique is satisfactory to differentiate Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) from hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy (H-LVH). We hypothesized that in HCM the presence of local peculiar tissue abnormalities results in the significant impairment of the regional systolic deformation and myocardial reflectivity, even if global function appears normal. Methods: Twenty non-obstructive HCM patients, 20 age- and gender-matched hypertensive patients (HTN) and 15 healthy volunteers (NTN) underwent grey-scale and tissue Doppler ultrasound imaging from three
