| Abstract | BACKGROUND: Standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) has several limitations in solving the differential diagnosis between physiologic left ventricular hypertrophy (PLVH) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), given the high rate of false-positive results in athletes. The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of several arrhythmic risk indexes in differentiating PLVH from HCM. METHODS: A multiparametric ECG analysis (extended-length ECG) was performed on 30 male athletes with PLVH and 30 male patients with HCM, with homogeneous age distribution. RESULTS: The combination of 4 extended-length ECG variables, namely, corrected QT interval (Bazett), QT dispersion, mean resting heart rate, and low-amplitude signal duration at 25 Hz (low-amplitude signal duration at the end of filtered QRS) displayed remarkable diagnostic accuracy (area under receiver operating characteristic curve, 94%). The same accuracy was obtained replacing QT dispersion with T-wave complexity index. CONCLUSIONS: Extended-length ECG can be considered an effective, low-cost, and low time-consuming clinical tool for distinguishing between PLVH and HCM. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
