Value of peak strain dispersion in discovering left ventricular dysfunction in diabetes mellitus
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is one of the main causes of death in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. The aim of the current study was to explore the value of peak strain dispersion (PSD) for discovering early-stage left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. One...

Sumario: | Abstract Cardiovascular disease is one of the main causes of death in diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. The aim of the current study was to explore the value of peak strain dispersion (PSD) for discovering early-stage left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients. One hundred and one T2DM patients and sixty healthy subjects were selected for this study. T2DM patients were further divided into controlled blood glucose (HbA1c < 7%, n = 46) and uncontrolled blood glucose (HbA1c ≥ 7%, n = 55) subgroups. All participants underwent conventional echocardiography and two-dimensional speckle-tracking echocardiography. Our results showed that an obvious difference was not observed in global longitudinal strain (GLS) between the controlled blood glucose group and the control group (− 20.34% vs − 21.22%, P = 0.068). Compared with the healthy controls, the uncontrolled blood glucose group showed an impaired GLS (− 18.62% vs − 21.22%, P < 0.001). Nevertheless, PSD was appreciably increased in the controlled blood glucose group (36.02 ms vs 32.48 ms, P = 0.01) and uncontrolled blood glucose group (57.51 ms vs 32.48 ms, P < 0.001). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that HbA1c was closely related to PSD lesion in the LV in the T2DM group (β = 0.520, P < 0.001). PSD plays an important role in evaluating the coordination and synchronization of myocardial movement and provides a more accurate and sensitive index assessment of early LV systolic function in T2DM patients. In addition, HbA1c levels were related to LV dysfunction. |
