Item Left ventricular morphology and function in adolescents with severe obesity: A cardiac MRI study(Obesity Week 2019, 2019) Tucker, Wesley J.; Nelson, Michael D.; Bolan, Patrick J.; Kelly, Aaron S.; Ryder, Justin R.Background: Adolescents with severe obesity are at elevated risk of developing cardiovascular disease; however, the exact mechanisms are unknown.
