62 apparently healthy persons aged 50-96 years were evaluated by echocardiography. Established in this series were an increase in incidence of hypertrophies of left ventricle with age and change in their qualitative distribution towards predominance of forms associated with sclerotic alterations in myocardium. Relation between different types of hypertrophy and parameters of systemic hemodynamics was noted as was their influence upon contractility of myocardium. The data obtained suggest that moderate hypertrophy of myocardium may have a positive, compensatory role in elderly and old people.
通过超声心动图对62名年龄在50至96岁之间看似健康的人进行了评估。在这个系列中发现，左心室肥厚的发生率随年龄增长而增加，并且其定性分布向与心肌硬化改变相关的形式占优势的方向变化。注意到不同类型的肥厚与全身血流动力学参数之间的关系，以及它们对心肌收缩力的影响。所获得的数据表明，心肌的中度肥厚在老年人中可能具有积极的代偿作用。
