Abstract

In 535 male hypertensive patients the correlation coefficient between the corrected transverse diameter of the heart and the systolic pressure was +0.301. With diastolic pressure the correlation coefficient was +0.209. Both coefficients were significant ( p <0.001), but the association between the variables was quite small in both correlations. The correlation between the corrected transverse diameter and the systolic pressure was significantly better than with the diastolic pressure, ( p <0.001). The correlation between the corrected transverse diameter and the systolic pressure was independent of age.
