The Worldwide rates of obesity, particularly among children and young adults, are Increasing. Heart
failure, coronary disease, and peripheral vascular disease have all been linked to obesity, and the
incidence of their consequences has also been found to fluctuate accordingly. Obese patients often
exhibit early signs of heart failure, including subclinical left ventricular dysfunction.The aim of this
study was to determine the effect of early age obesity on left and right ventricular functions using
echocardiography. 75 healthy volunteers were included in our study who presented to Department of
cardiovascular medicine at benha university hospitals in the period between July 2022 to May 2023.
All volunteers were evaluated using Echocardiography at Benha University Hospital's Cardiology
department and divided into two groups. Group I (control) consisted of participants with a body mass
index (BMI) of 25 or less (non-obese), while Group 2 (Case) consisted of participants with a BMI of 30
or more (Obese). Heart rate (HR), systolic blood pressure (SBP), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP)
showed no statistically significant differences between the groups. There were no statistically
significant variations in PWTd across the groups. Mitral E wave velocity, Mitral A wave velocity, and
the E/A ratio showed no statistically significant differences between groups. Obese group had a greater
IVSd than the control group
