“…In a study by Cacho, et al the mean RV area was found to be 13.02±3.64cm 2 and RA area was found to be 8.81±2.79cm 2 consistent with our findings. 14 In a study by Bertoli et al and Oswald et al, the RVAWT was found to be 0.54±0.14cms and 0.61±0.12cms respectively, which was very much similar to our findings. 15,16 The minor differences could be due to the categorisation of patients into mild, moderate and severe in our study.…”

“…9,10 Furthermore, enlarged RA area belongs to the echocardiographic parameters that might raise or reinforce suspicion of pulmonary hypertension independently of tricuspid regurgitation velocity 9,10 and may be an early indicator for primary diseases of the right side of the heart. RA area distinguished healthy subjects from patients with RV volume overload or rightsided heart diseases with only minimal overlap between the groups, 8,22,23,25 as long as correct cutoff values were used.…”

“…The percentage of women ranged from 27% to 54.3%, although 1 study did not mention sex distribution (Table 2). Three studies were retrospective in design; in 3 others, the study design was not completely clear; 5 studies 12,18-20 were designed for reference value determination; and 4 studies [21][22][23][24][25] used healthy subjects as the control group. Table 3 summarizes the mean values for absolute and indexed RA area, standard deviations, 95% quantiles, and …”

“…O terceiro critério foi a evidência de sobrecarga ventricular direita ao eletrocardiograma. Quando foram realizadas as medidas pelo ecocardiograma bidimensional, no corte apical de quatro câmaras, e comparado um grupo de pacientes com hipertrofia do ventrículo direito pelos critérios expostos com um grupo de indivíduos normotensos, observou-se diferença estatisticamente significante nos diâmetros longitudinal e transversal e área do átrio direito e no diâmetro longitudinal e área do ventrículo direito 29 . Ainda no que se refere à determinação da hipertrofia do ventrículo direito pelo ecocardiograma, Devereux e cols.…”
