Relationship between ST-segment recovery and clinical outcomes after primary percutaneous coronary intervention: the HORIZONS-AMI ECG substudy report
Farkouh M, Reiffel J, Dressler O, Nikolsky E, Parise H, Cristea E, et al.
Circ Cardiovasc Interv . 2013 May; 6(3):216-23. PMID: 23652600

Left ventricular hypertrophy by electrocardiography and echocardiography in the African American Study of Kidney Disease Cohort Study
Esquitin R, Razzouk L, Peterson G, Wright Jr J, Phillips R, De Backer T, et al.
J Am Soc Hypertens . 2012 Feb; 6(3):193-200. PMID: 22341790
Although electrocardiographic criteria for diagnosing left ventricular hypertrophy have a low sensitivity in the general population, their test characteristics have not been evaluated in the high-prevalence group of American Americans...
