Evaluation of structural-functional changes of the left ventricular myocardium in patients with arterial hypertension and obesity by the level of irisin

Abstract

Decrease in the content of serum irisin leads to structural and functional changes in the left ventricular myocardium in the form of myocardial contractility reduction and increase in both the cavity and size of the left ventricle, and can play a role in the pathogenesis of obesity in patients with arterial hypertension.
