title: [The ST-segment-dependent indices of patients with left ventricular hypertrophy and coronary failure].
abstract: As many as 40 men suffering from essential hypertension (EH) and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCMP) were examined. All the patients exercised on a treadmill according to the Cornell protocol taking into consideration the ST/HR slope and the ST/HR index, underwent echocardiography with measurements of the left ventricular mass (LVM), and coronary ventriculography. Coronary insufficiency was revealed in all the patients. Of these, 11 patients suffered from it due to associated EH and coronary heart disease (CHD), 31 had relative coronary insufficiency in the presence of associated EH and LVH phenomena with no stenosis of coronary vessels, and 7 patients showed up relative coronary insufficiency in the presence of HCMP. The ST/HR slope and the ST/HR index correlated well with the LVM and the asymmetry index of the left ventricle but in patients with associated relative coronary insufficiency and EH. In patients with associated EH and CHD, the ST-dependent parameters correlated well neither with the degree of atherosclerosis spreading nor with the LVM. This may indicate that both factors influence the gravity of coronary insufficiency at a time. In case a patient suffering from associated EH and coronary insufficiency phenomena has the ST/HR slope greater than or equal to greater than or equal to 4.5 microV/stroke/min and/or the ST/HR index greater than or equal to greater than or equal to 2.5 microV/stroke/min, it is more likely that myocardial ischemia is provoked by concomitant atherosclerosis of coronary arteries (sensitivity 28%, specificity 71%).
