Indexing of Left Atrial Volume by various body size parameters in the Indian non-obese normal subjects: Is there an incremental value ?

CONCLUSION: Normal values for LAV indexed for height, weight, body surface area by three different methods of height as an allometric parameter are described in normal Indian individuals. We reinforce that LA volume indexation for BSA is an acceptable and robust method in non-obese Indian subjects. Indexing for height 1.72 is probably slightly superior method to evaluate LAV.PMID:38574812 | DOI:10.1016/j.ihj.2024.04.001
