摘要：

Electrocardiographic variables that occurred with significantly higher frequency in morbidly obese patients than in lean controls were low QRS voltage, leftward shift of the P, QRS, and T axes and multiple electrocardigraphic criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy and left atrial enlargement. P-terminal force, RaVL, SaVR, and WS ratio in lead V-1 values were significantly higher in morbidly obese than in lean subjects.
