Li GA, Huang J, Fan L. Evaluation of left ventricular systolic function in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with and without peripheral vascular disease. World J Diabetes 2024; 15:1280-1290. [PMID: 38983825 PMCID: PMC11229978 DOI: 10.4239/wjd.v15.i6.1280] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2024] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a common complication of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Patients with T2DM have twice the risk of PVD as nondiabetic patients. AIM To evaluate left ventricular (LV) systolic function by layer-specific global longitudinal strain (GLS) and peak strain dispersion (PSD) in T2DM patients with and without PVD. METHODS Sixty-five T2DM patients without PVD, 57 T2DM patients with PVD and 63 normal controls were enrolled in the study. Layer-specific GLS [GLS of the epimyocardium (GLSepi), GLS of the middle myocardium (GLSmid) and GLS of the endocardium (GLSendo)] and PSD were calculated. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed to calculate the sensitivity and specificity of LV systolic dysfunction in T2DM patients with PVD. We calculated Pearson's correlation coefficients between biochemical data, echocardiographic characteristics, and layer-specific GLS and PSD. RESULTS There were significant differences in GLSepi, GLSmid and GLSendo between normal controls, T2DM patients without PVD and T2DM patients with PVD (P < 0.001). Trend tests revealed a ranking of normal controls > T2DM patients without PVD > T2DM patients with PVD in the absolute value of GLS (P < 0.001). PSD differed significantly between the three groups, and the trend ranking was as follows: normal controls < T2DM patients without PVD < T2DM patients with PVD (P < 0.001). ROC analysis revealed that the combination of layer-specific GLS and PSD had high diagnostic efficiency for detecting LV systolic dysfunction in T2DM patients with PVD. Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol was positively correlated with GLSepi, GLSmid and PSD (P < 0.05), while LV ejection fraction was negatively correlated with GLSepi, GLSmid and GLSendo in T2DM patients with PVD (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION PVD may aggravate the deterioration of LV systolic dysfunction in T2DM patients. Layer-specific GLS and PSD can be used to detect LV systolic dysfunction accurately and conveniently in T2DM patients with or without PVD.

Abstract
Cardiovascular complications are the most deadly and cost-driving effects of diabetes mellitus (DM). One of them, which is steadily attracting attention among scientists, is diabetes-induced heart failure, also known as diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM). Despite significant progress in the research concerning the disease, a universally accepted definition is still lacking. The pathophysiology of the processes accelerating heart insufficiency in diabetic patients on molecular and cellular levels also remains elusive. However, the recent interest concerning extracellular vesicles (EVs) has brought promise to further clarifying the pathological events that lead to DCM. In this review, we sum up recent investigations on the involvement of EVs in DCM and show their therapeutic and indicatory potential.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy, a multifaceted complication of diabetes mellitus, remains a major challenge in clinical management due to its intricate pathophysiology. Emerging evidence underscores the pivotal role of autophagy dysregulation in the progression of diabetic cardiomyopathy, providing a novel avenue for therapeutic intervention. Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), a diverse class of regulatory molecules, have recently emerged as promising candidates for targeted therapeutic strategies. The exploration of various classes of ncRNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs), long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), and circular RNAs (circRNAs) reveal their intricate regulatory networks in modulating autophagy and influencing the pathophysiological processes associated with diabetic cardiomyopathy. The nuanced understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying ncRNA-mediated autophagic regulation offers a rationale for the development of precise and effective therapeutic interventions. Harnessing the regulatory potential of ncRNAs presents a promising frontier for the development of targeted and personalized therapeutic strategies, aiming to ameliorate the burden of diabetic cardiomyopathy in affected individuals. As research in this field advances, the identification and validation of specific ncRNA targets hold immense potential for the translation of these findings into clinically viable interventions, ultimately improving outcomes for patients with diabetic cardiomyopathy. This review encapsulates the current understanding of the intricate interplay between autophagy and diabetic cardiomyopathy, with a focus on the potential of ncRNAs as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the development of myocardial dysfunction in patients with diabetes despite the absence of comorbidities such as hypertension, atherosclerosis or valvular defect. The cardiovascular complications of poorly controlled diabetes are very well illustrated by the U.K. Prospective Diabetes Study (UKPDS), which showed a clear association between increasing levels of glycated hemoglobin and the development of heart failure (HF). The incidence of HF in patients with diabetes is projected to increase significantly, which is why its proper diagnosis and treatment is so important. Providing appropriate therapy focusing on antidiabetic and hypolipemic treatment with the consideration of pharmacotherapy for heart failure reduces the risk of CMD and reduces the incidence of cardiovascular complications. Health-promoting changes made by patients such as a low-carbohydrate diet, regular exercise and weight reduction also appear to be important in achieving appropriate outcomes. New hope for the development of therapies for DCM is offered by novel methods using stem cells and miRNA, which, however, require more thorough research to confirm their efficacy.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DbCM) is one of the most common vascular complications of diabetes, and can cause heart failure and threaten the life of patients. The pathogenesis is complex, and key genes have not fully identified. In this study, bioinformatics analysis was used to predict DbCM-related gene targets. Published datasets from the NCBI Gene Expression Omnibus with accession numbers GSE62203 and GSE197850 were selected for analysis. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified by the online tool GEO2R. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses were performed using the DAVID online database. Protein-protein interaction network construction and hub gene identification were performed using STRING and Cytoscape. We used 30 mM and 1 μM hydrocortisone-stimulated AC16 cells as an in vitro model of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was performed to validate the expression levels of hub genes. A total of 73 common DEGs were identified in both datasets, including 47 upregulated and 26 downregulated genes. GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses revealed that the DEGs were significantly enriched in metabolism, hypoxia response, apoptosis, cell proliferation regulation, and cytoplasmic and HIF signalling pathways. The top 10 hub genes were LDHA, PGK1, SLC2A1, ENO1, PFKFB3, EGLN1, MYC, PDK1, EGLN3 and BNIP3. In our in vitro study, we found that PGK1, SLC2A1, PFKFB3, EGLN1, MYC, EGLN3 and BNIP3 were upregulated, ENO1 was downregulated, and LDHA was unchanged. Except for PGK1 and ENO1, these hub genes have been previously reported to be involved in DbCM. In summary, we identified DEGs and hub genes and first reported PGK1 and ENO1 in DbCM, which may serve as potential candidate genes for DbCM targeted therapy.

Beyond the beat: A pioneering investigation into exercise modalities for alleviating diabetic cardiomyopathy and enhancing cardiac health. Curr Probl Cardiol 2024; 49:102222. [PMID: 38000567 DOI: 10.1016/j.cpcardiol.2023.102222] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2023] [Accepted: 11/18/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023]
Abstract
Patients with preexisting cardiovascular disease or those at high risk for developing the condition are often offered exercise as a form of therapy. Patients with cancer who are at an increased risk for cardiovascular issues are increasingly encouraged to participate in exercise-based, interdisciplinary programs due to the positive correlation between these interventions and clinical outcomes following myocardial infarction. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC) is a cardiac disorder that arises due to disruptions in the homeostasis of individuals with diabetes. One of the primary reasons for mortality in individuals with diabetes is the presence of cardiac structural damage and functional abnormalities, which are the primary pathological features of DC. The aetiology of dilated cardiomyopathy is multifaceted and encompasses a range of processes, including metabolic abnormalities, impaired mitochondrial function, dysregulation of calcium ion homeostasis, excessive cardiomyocyte death, and fibrosis. In recent years, many empirical investigations have demonstrated that exercise training substantially impacts the prevention and management of diabetes. Exercise has been found to positively impact the recovery of diabetes and improve several metabolic problem characteristics associated with DC. One potential benefit of exercise is its ability to increase systolic activity, which can enhance cardiometabolic and facilitate the repair of structural damage to the heart caused by DC, leading to a direct improvement in cardiac health. In contrast, exercise has the potential to indirectly mitigate the pathological progression of DC through its ability to decrease circulating levels of sugar and fat while concurrently enhancing insulin sensitivity. A more comprehensive understanding of the molecular mechanism via exercise facilitates the restoration of DC disease must be understood. Our goal in this review was to provide helpful information and clues for developing new therapeutic techniques for motion alleviation DC by examining the molecular mechanisms involved.

Abstract
The global prevalence of type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) has caused harm to human health and economies. Cardiovascular disease is one main cause of T2DM mortality. Increased prevalence of diabetes and associated heart failure (HF) is common in older populations, so accurately evaluating heart-related injury and T2DM risk factors and conducting early intervention are important. Quantitative cardiovascular system imaging assessments, including functional imaging during cardiovascular disease treatment, are also important. The left-ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) has been traditionally used to monitor cardiac function; it is often preserved or increased in early T2DM, but subclinical heart deformation and dysfunction can occur. Myocardial strains are sensitive to global and regional heart dysfunction in subclinical T2DM. Cardiac magnetic resonance feature-tracking technology (CMR-FT) can visualize and quantify strain and identify subclinical myocardial injury for early management, especially with preserved LVEF. Meanwhile, CMR-FT can be used to evaluate the multiple cardiac chambers involvement mediated by T2DM and the coexistence of complications. This review discusses CMR-FT principles, clinical applications, and research progress in the evaluation of myocardial strain in T2DM.

Abstract
Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Hence, early detection of cardiac changes by imaging is crucial to reducing cardiovascular complications. Purpose Early detection of cardiac changes is crucial to reducing cardiovascular complications. The study aimed to detect the dynamic change in cardiac morphology, function, and diffuse myocardial fibrosis(DMF) associated with T1DM and T2DM mice models. Materials and methods 4-week-old C57Bl/6J male mice were randomly divided into control (n=30), T1DM (n=30), and T2DM (n=30) groups. A longitudinal study was conducted every 4 weeks using serial 7.0T CMR and echocardiography imaging. Left ventricular ejection fraction (LV EF), tissue tracking parameters, and DMF were measured by cine CMR and extracellular volume fraction (ECV). Global peak circumferential strain (GCPS), peak systolic strain rate (GCPSSR) values were acquired by CMR feature tracking. LV diastolic function parameter (E/E') was acquired by echocardiography. The correlations between the ECV and cardiac function parameters were assessed by Pearson's test. Results A total of 6 mice were included every 4 weeks in control, T1DM, and T2DM groups for analysis. Compared to control group, an increase was detected in the LV mass and E/E' ratio, while the values of GCPS, GCPSSR decreased mildly in DM. Compared to T2DM group, GCPS and GCPSSR decreased earlier in T1DM(GCPS 12W,P=0.004; GCPSSR 12W,P=0.04). ECV values showed a significant correlation with GCPS and GCPSSR in DM groups. Moreover, ECV values showed a strong positive correlation with E/E'(T1DM,r=0.757,P<0.001;T2DM, r=0.811,P<0.001). Conclusion The combination of ECV and cardiac mechanical parameters provide imaging biomakers for pathophysiology, early diagnosis of cardiac morphology, function and early intervention in diabetic cardiomyopathy in the future.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), a serious diabetic complication, is a kind of low-grade inflammatory cardiovascular disorder. Due to the high risk of morbidity and mortality, DCM has demanded the attention of medical researchers worldwide. The pathophysiological nature of DCM is intricate, and the genesis and development of which are a consequence of the coaction of many factors. However, the exact pathogenesis mechanism of DCM remains unclear. Pyroptosis is a newly identified programmed cell death (PCD) that is directly related to gasdermin D(GSDMD). It is characterized by pore formation on the cell plasma membrane, the release of inflammatory mediators, and cell lysis. The initiation of pyroptosis is closely correlated with NOD-like receptor 3 (NLRP3) activation, which activates caspase-1 and promotes the cleaving of GSDMD. In addition to adjusting the host’s immune defense, NLRP3 inflammasome/pyroptosis plays a critical role in controlling the systemic inflammatory response. Recent evidence has indicated that NLRP3 inflammasome/pyroptosis has a strong link with DCM. Targeting the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome or pyroptosis may be a hopeful therapeutic strategy for DCM. The focus of this review is to summarize the relevant mechanisms of pyroptosis and the relative contributions in DCM, highlighting the potential therapeutic targets in this field.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is defined as the presence in diabetic patients of abnormal cardiac structure and performance (such as left ventricular hypertrophy, fibrosis, and arrhythmia) in the absence of other cardiac risk factors (such as hypertension or coronary artery disease). Although the pathogenesis of DCM remains unclear currently, mitochondrial structural and functional dysfunctions are recognised as a central player in the DCM development. In this review, we focus on the role of mitochondrial dynamics, biogenesis and mitophagy, Ca2+ metabolism and bioenergetics in the DCM development and progression. Based on the crucial role of mitochondria in DCM, application of mitochondria-targeting therapies could be effective strategies to slow down the progression of the disease.

Abstract
Alterations in myocardial structure, function, tissue composition (e.g., fibrosis) may be associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS). This study aimed to determine the relation of MetS and its individual components to markers of cardiovascular disease in patients with type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM). A total of 978 subjects of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications T1DM cohort (age: 49 ± 7 years, 47% female, DM duration 28 ± 5 years) underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance. In a subset of 200 patients, myocardial tissue composition was measured with cardiovascular magnetic resonance T1 mapping after contrast administration. MetS was defined as T1DM plus 2 other abnormalities based on the American Heart Association/National Cholesterol Education Program criteria. MetS was present in 34.1% of subjects. After adjustment for age, height, scanner, study cohort, gender, smoking, mean glycated hemoglobin levels, history of macroalbuminuria and end-stage renal disease, left ventricle mass was greater by 12.3 g, end-diastolic volume was higher by 5.4 ml, and mass to end-diastolic volume ratio was higher by 5% in patients with MetS versus those without MetS (p <0.001 for all). Myocardial T1 times were lower by 29 ms in patients with MetS than those without (p <0.001). Elevated waist circumference showed the strongest associations with left ventricle mass (+10.1 g), end-diastolic volume (+6.7 ml), and lower myocardial T1 times (+31 ms) in patients with MetS compared with those without (p <0.01). In conclusion, in a large cohort of patients with T1DM, 34.1% of subjects met MetS criteria. MetS was associated with adverse myocardial structural remodeling and change in myocardial tissue composition.

Atrioventricular coupling and left atrial abnormality in type 2 diabetes mellitus with functional mitral regurgitation patients verified by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2022; 21:100. [PMID: 35681217 PMCID: PMC9185866 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-022-01536-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/21/2022] [Accepted: 05/30/2022] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients induced by left ventricular (LV) enlargement and mitral valve abnormality may aggravated the impairment in left atrial (LA) compliance. Thus, this study aimed to depict how FMR and LV dysfunction affect LA compliance in T2DM patients with FMR. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 148 patients with T2DM and 49 age- and sex-matched normal controls underwent cardiac magnetic resonance examination. LA longitudinal strain and LA and LV functional indices were compared among controls and different T2DM patients. The multivariate analysis was used to identify the independent indicators of LA longitudinal strain. RESULTS T2DM Patients without FMR had a lower total LA empty fraction (LAEF) compared with the controls (all P < 0.05). T2DM patients with mild and moderate FMR showed increased LA volume (LAV) and LV volume while decreased LAEF, LA strain, and LV ejection fraction (P < 0.05). T2DM patients with severe FMR showed markedly increased LAV and LV volume while decreased LAEF, LA strain, and LVEF (P < 0.05). In T2DM patients with FMR, reservoir strain (εs) was independently correlated with LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV) (β = - 0.334) and regurgitation degree (β = - 0.256). The passive strain (εe) was independently correlated with regurgitation degree (β = - 0.297), whereas the active strain (εa) was independently correlated with LVESV (β = - 0.352) and glycated haemoglobin (β = - 0.279). CONCLUSION FMR may aggravate LA and LV dysfunction in T2DM patients. Regurgitation degree was an independent determinant of the εs and the εe, LVEDV was an independent determinant of the εs, and LVESV was an independent determinant of the εa in T2DM patients with FMR.

Simple Predictors for Cardiac Fibrosis in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: The Role of Circulating Biomarkers and Pulse Wave Velocity. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11102843. [PMID: 35628969 PMCID: PMC9147134 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11102843] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/01/2022] [Revised: 05/11/2022] [Accepted: 05/16/2022] [Indexed: 12/29/2022] Open
Abstract
Cardiac fibrosis is the basis of structural and functional disorders in patients with diabetes mellitus (T2DM). A wide range of laboratory and instrumental methods is used for its prediction. The study aimed to identify simple predictors of cardiac fibrosis in patients with T2DM based on the analysis of circulating fibrosis biomarkers and arterial stiffness. The study included patients with T2DM (n = 37) and cardiovascular risk factors (RF, n = 27) who underwent ECHO, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), pulse wave analysis (PWV), reactive hyperemia (RH), peripheral arterial tonometry, carotid ultrasonography, and assessment of serum fibrosis biomarkers. As a control group, 15 healthy subjects were examined. Left ventricular concentric hypertrophy was accompanied by an increased serum galectin-3 level in T2DM patients. There was a relationship between the PICP and HbA1c levels in both main groups (R2 = 0.309; p = 0.014). A negative correlation between PICP level and the global longitudinal strain (GLS) was found (r = −0.467; p = 0.004). The RH index had a negative correlation with the duration of diabetes (r = −0.356; p = 0.03), the carotid-femoral PWV (r = −0.371; p = 0.024), and the carotid intima-media thickness (r = −0.622; p < 0.001). The late gadolinium-enhanced (LGE) cardiac MRI was detected in 22 (59.5%) T2DM and in 4 (14.85%) RF patients. Diabetes, its baseline treatment with metformin, HbA1c and serum TIMP-1 levels, and left ventricle hypertrophy had moderate positive correlations with LGE findings (p < 0.05). Using the multivariate regression analysis, increased TIMP-1 level was identified as an independent factor associated with cardiac fibrosis.

Abstract
Background Young adult populations with the sedentary lifestyle-related risk factors overweight, hypertension, and type 2 diabetes (T2D) are growing, and associated cardiac alterations could overlap early findings in non-ischemic cardiomyopathy on cardiovascular MRI. We aimed to investigate cardiac morphology, function, and tissue characteristics for these cardiovascular risk factors. Methods Non-athletic non-smoking asymptomatic adults aged 18-45 years were prospectively recruited and underwent 3Tesla cardiac MRI. Multivariate linear regression was performed to investigate independent associations of risk factor-related parameters with cardiac MRI values. Results We included 311 adults (age, 32 ± 7 years; men, 49%). Of them, 220 subjects had one or multiple risk factors, while 91 subjects were free of risk factors. For overweight, increased body mass index (per SD = 5.3 kg/m2) was associated with increased left ventricular (LV) mass (+7.3 g), biventricular higher end-diastolic (LV, +8.6 ml), and stroke volumes (SV; +5.0 ml), higher native T1 (+7.3 ms), and lower extracellular volume (ECV, -0.38%), whereas the higher waist-hip ratio was associated with lower biventricular volumes. Regarding hypertension, increased systolic blood pressure (per SD = 14 mmHg) was associated with increased LV mass (+6.9 g), higher LV ejection fraction (EF; +1.0%), and lower ECV (-0.48%), whereas increased diastolic blood pressure was associated with lower LV EF. In T2D, increased HbA1c (per SD = 9.0 mmol/mol) was associated with increased LV mass (+2.2 g), higher right ventricular end-diastolic volume (+3.2 ml), and higher ECV (+0.27%). Increased heart rate was linked with decreased LV mass, lower biventricular volumes, and lower T2 values. Conclusions Young asymptomatic adults with overweight, hypertension, and T2D show subclinical alterations in cardiac morphology, function, and tissue characteristics. These alterations should be considered in cardiac MRI-based clinical decision making.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a pathophysiological condition of cardiac structure and function changes in diabetic patients without coronary artery disease, hypertension, and other types of heart diseases. DCM is not uncommon in people with diabetes, which increases the risk of heart failure. However, the treatment is scarce, and the prognosis is poor. Since 1972, one clinical study after another on DCM has been conducted. However, the complex phenotype of DCM still has not been fully revealed. This dilemma hinders the pace of understanding the essence of DCM and makes it difficult to carry out penetrating clinical or basic research. This review summarizes the literature on DCM over the last 40 years and discusses the overall perspective of DCM, phase of progression, potential clinical indicators, diagnostic and screening criteria, and related randomized controlled trials to understand DCM better.

Abstract
Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a common complication of diabetes, in which endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) serves an important role. Rutin can treat the myocardial dysfunction of diabetic rats. However, to the best of our knowledge, studies on the effects of Rutin on myocardial injury caused by diabetes from the perspective of ERS have not previously been reported. In the present study, the role of rutin in the regulation of ERS in myocardial injury was assessed. Different high glucose concentrations were used to treat H9C2 myoblast cells to establish a myocardial damage model. A cell counting kit-8 assay was used to determine cell viability. A lactate dehydrogenase kit was used to detect cytotoxicity. Apoptosis levels were determined using a TUNEL assay. Western blotting was used to determine the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins and ERS-related proteins, including heat shock protein A family member 5, inositol-requiring enzyme-1α, X-box binding protein 1, activating transcription factor 6, C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP), cleaved caspase-12 and caspase-12. The anti-apoptotic and anti-ERS effects of Rutin on H9C2 cardiac cells induced by high glucose were examined after the administration of the ERS activator thapsigargin (TG). The results indicated that rutin could dose-dependently inhibit the level of apoptosis and ERS induced by high glucose in H9C2 cells. After administration of the ERS activator TG, it was demonstrated that TG could reverse the anti-apoptotic and anti-ERS effects of rutin on H9C2 cells stimulated with high glucose. Collectively, the present results suggested that rutin may alleviate cardiomyocyte model cell injury induced by high glucose through the inhibition of apoptosis and ERS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) is one of the most common heart valve diseases in diabetes and may increase left ventricular (LV) preload and aggravate myocardial stiffness. This study aimed to investigate the aggravation of FMR on the deterioration of LV strain in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients and explore the independent indicators of LV peak strain (PS). MATERIALS AND METHODS In total, 157 T2DM patients (59 patients with and 98 without FMR) and 52 age- and sex-matched healthy control volunteers were included and underwent cardiac magnetic resonance examination. T2DM with FMR patients were divided into T2DM patients with mild (n = 21), moderate (n = 19) and severe (n = 19) regurgitation. LV function and global strain parameters were compared among groups. Multivariate analysis was used to identify the independent indicators of LV PS. RESULTS The T2DM with FMR had lower LV strain parameters in radial, circumferential and longitudinal direction than both the normal and the T2DM without FMR (all P < 0.05). The mild had mainly decreased peak diastolic strain rate (PDSR) compared to the normal. The moderate had decreased peak systolic strain rate (PSSR) compared to the normal and PDSR compared to the mild and the normal. The severe FMR group had decreased PDSR and PSSR compared to the mild and the normal (all P < 0.05). Multiple linear regression showed that the regurgitation degree was independent associated with radial (β = - 0.272), circumferential (β = - 0.412) and longitudinal (β = - 0.347) PS; the months with diabetes was independently associated with radial (β = - 0.299) and longitudinal (β = - 0.347) PS in T2DM with FMR. CONCLUSION FMR may aggravate the deterioration of LV stiffness in T2DM patients, resulting in decline of LV strain and function. The regurgitation degree and months with diabetes were independently correlated with LV global PS in T2DM with FMR.

Abstract
Chronic heart failure (CHF) occurs in 4.3-28% of patients with diabetes mellitus and is most often associated with the presence of coronary heart disease, arterial hypertension and the direct adverse effects of insulin-resistance, hyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia on the myocardium. Diabetes mellitus occurs in 12-47% of patients with CHF and can develop within several years after a diagnosis of HF in 22% of patients due to insulin-resistance of failure tissues. The presence of diabetes mellitus leads to a greater severity of clinical symptoms and hospitalization rate, worsening of quality of life and prognosis in CHF. A decreased left ventricular ejection fraction is an independent predictor of the poor prognosis in the patients with diabetes mellitus. The algorithm of the treatment of CHF in the patients with and without diabetes mellitus is not fundamentally different, but it requires taking into account the metabolic effects of the prescribed drugs. Angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor are increasingly used in clinical practice and are gradually replacing angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and sartans in CHF both without diabetes mellitus and in its presence. Recently, the effectiveness of type 2 sodium glucose cotransporter inhibitors has been proven in patients with CHF with and without diabetes mellitus. This review is devoted to the relationship of diabetes mellitus and CHF, as well as the approaches to the management of such comorbid patients.

Assessment of subclinical diabetic cardiomyopathy by speckle-tracking imaging. Eur J Clin Invest 2021; 51:e13475. [PMID: 33326612 DOI: 10.1111/eci.13475] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2020] [Revised: 11/28/2020] [Accepted: 12/05/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Diastolic dysfunction is traditionally believed to be the first subclinical manifestation of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM), leading to systolic dysfunction and then overt heart failure. However, in the last few years, several studies suggested that systolic subclinical dysfunction measured by speckle-tracking echocardiography (STE) may appear ahead of diastolic dysfunction. In this review, the main endpoint is to show whether subclinical myocardial systolic dysfunction appears ahead of diastolic dysfunction and the implication this may have on the evolution and management of DCM. MATERIALS AND METHODS We performed a search in PubMed for all relevant publications on the assessment of DCM by STE from 1 June 2015 to 1 June 2020. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS The results illustrate that subclinical systolic dysfunction assessed by STE is present in early DCM stages, with or without the association of diastolic dysfunction. This could be a promising perspective for the early management of patients with DCM leading to the prevention of the overt form of disease.

The additive effects of kidney dysfunction on left ventricular function and strain in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients verified by cardiac magnetic resonance imaging. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2021; 20:11. [PMID: 33413395 PMCID: PMC7792094 DOI: 10.1186/s12933-020-01203-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/09/2020] [Accepted: 12/24/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are susceptible to coexisted with chronic kidney disease (CKD), which may increase cardiovascular mortality in these patients. The present study aimed to verify whether CKD aggravates the deterioration of left ventricular (LV) myocardial strain in T2DM patients and to explore the risk factors associated with LV strain. Materials and methods In total, 105 T2DM patients and 52 healthy individuals were included and underwent cardiac magnetic resonance examination. Patients were divided into the following two groups: T2DM with CKD (n = 33) and T2DM without CKD (n = 72). The baseline clinical and biochemical indices were obtained from hospital records before the cardiac magnetic resonance scan. Cine sequences, including long-axis views (2-chamber and 4-chamber) and short-axis views, were acquired. LV function and global strain parameters were measured based on cine sequences and compared among three groups. Pearson’s analysis was performed to investigate the correlation between LV strain parameters and clinical indices. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify the independent indicators of LV strain. Results Compared with normal controls, T2DM patients without CKD had a significantly decreased magnitude of peak strain (PS; radial), peak systolic strain rate (radial), and peak diastolic strain rate (radial and circumferential) (all P < 0.05). Furthermore, T2DM patients with CKD displayed markedly lower magnitudes of PS (radial, circumferential, and longitudinal) and peak diastolic strain rate (circumferential and longitudinal) than both normal controls and T2DM patients without CKD (all P < 0.05). The eGFR was positively associated with the magnitude of PS (R = radial, 0.392; circumferential, 0.436; longitudinal, 0.556), while uric acid was negatively associated with the magnitude of PS (R = radial, − 0.361; circumferential, − 0.391; longitudinal, − 0.460) (all P < 0.001). Multivariable linear regression indicated that the magnitude of PS was independently associated with eGFR (β = radial, 0.314; circumferential, 0.292; longitudinal, 0.500) and uric acid (β = radial, − 0.239; circumferential, − 0.211; longitudinal, − 0.238) (all P < 0.05). Conclusions Kidney dysfunction may aggravate the deterioration of LV strain in T2DM patients. LV strain is positively associated with the estimated glomerular filtration rate and negatively associated with uric acid, which may be independent risk factors for predicting reduction of LV strain.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The metabolic syndrome (MetS) is an adverse metabolic state composed of obesity, hyperglycemia/pre-diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. It substantially increases the risk of type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality, and has a huge impact on public health. AREA COVERED The present review gives an update on the definition and prevalence of MetS, and its impact on cardiac structure and function as well as on the brain and central arteries. The association with CVD and mortality risk is discussed. Focus is mainly directed toward the subclinical target organ damage related to MetS. Data is also critically reviewed to provide evidence on the incremental prognostic value of overall MetS over its individual components. EXPERT COMMENTARY MetS is a clinical risk condition associated with subclinical and clinical CVD and mortality. Roughly, 30% of the world population suffer from MetS. As all components of the MetS are modifiable, optimal preventive and therapeutic measures should be initiated to improve CV risk control, particularly aggressively treating hypertension and hyperglycemia, and encouraging people to adopt healthy lifestyle as early as possible is of great importance.
