Abstract
The article describes the correlations between age, gender, the presence of chronic diseases, and the condition of the walls and left ventricle of the heart according to the echocardiogram of the heart. When examining a group of people of 80 people (40 women and 40 men) of different age groups, it was found that with age there was an increase in the thickness of the free and posterior walls of the left ventricle (LVLV), an increase in the thickness of the interventricular septum (IVS) and a decrease in the end diastolic (EDD) associated with concentric remodeling of the heart, and in women, left ventricular myocardial hypertrophy was observed more often than in male subjects, which is associated with the cardioprotective effect of estrogens, the amount of which decreases in women after 45 due to the onset of menopause.
