This factor had raised a suggestion that metabolic abnormalities in the group given gentamicin along with high fructose water might have been attributed to the intervention of gentamicin or the higher amount of ingested fructose.
Given that various metabolic abnormalities, such as diabetes, central obesity, dyslipidemia and hyperuricemia have been reported in association with LVH, even in the absence of hypertension [ 1, 3, 32, 51, 52], these results suggest that increased serum calcium level may correlate with LVH through metabolic abnormalities.

The difference in CAC between groups 2 and 3 was significant but perhaps not as large as might be expected given the more profound metabolic abnormalities in the latter group (Table 2).
