2010, Journal of the American College of CardiologyCitation Excerpt :Each subject included in this analysis was judged to be free of structural cardiovascular disease at initial evaluation on the basis of medical history, physical examination (with blood pressure consistently <140/90 mm Hg), exercise ECG testing, and 2-dimensional and Doppler echocardiography. In athletes with LV wall thickness exceeding normal limits (≥13 mm) and/or markedly dilated LV cavity (≥60 mm), physiologic remodeling of the athlete's heart was distinguished from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and dilated cardiomyopathy, respectively, according to previously described criteria (11–14). Six athletes presented markedly abnormal repolarization patterns on ECG, with inverted T waves of >2 mm in >2 precordial/standard leads in the absence of structural cardiac disease (15).
