Right ventricular end-systolic volume

Older age is associated with right ventricular end-systolic volume in humans.

“whereas higher BMI and older age were associated with larger RVESV.”

Female sex is associated with right ventricular end-systolic volume in humans.

“Female sex independently predicted more favorable RV indices (better RVGLS and smaller RVESV), whereas higher BMI and older age were associated with larger RVESV.”
