J Magn Reson Imaging 2024; 59:548-560. [PMID: 37222658 DOI: 10.1002/jmri.28794] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2023] [Revised: 05/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/05/2023] [Indexed: 05/25/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND It is uncertain how various degree of glycemic status affect left ventricular (LV) myocardial strain in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients undergoing primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI). PURPOSE To investigate the relationship of glycemic status and myocardial strain in STEMI patients. STUDY TYPE Prospective cohort study. POPULATION 282 STEMI patients with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging 5 ± 2 days post-PPCI. Patients were divided into three groups based on the level of glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) (group 1: HbA1c < 5.7%; group 2: 5.7% ≤ HbA1c < 6.5%; group 3: HbA1c ≥ 6.5%). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3.0-T; late gadolinium enhancement, balanced steady-state free precession cine sequence, black blood fat-suppressed T2-weighted. ASSESSMENT LV function, myocardial strain, and infarct characteristics (infarct size, microvascular obstruction, and intramyocardial hemorrhage) were compared among the three groups by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) or Wilcoxon rank sum test. Intraobserver and interobserver reproducibility of LV myocardial strain was evaluated. STATISTICAL TESTS ANOVA or Wilcoxon rank sum test, Pearson chi-square or Fisher's exact test, Spearman's correlation analyses and multivariable linear regression analysis. A two-tailed P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS Infarct characteristics were similar among the three groups (P = 0.934, P = 0.097, P = 0.533, respectively). Patients with HbA1c ≥ 6.5% had decreased LV myocardial strain compared with HbA1c 5.7%-6.4%, as evidenced by global radial (GRS), global circumferential (GCS), and global longitudinal (GLS) strain. However, no significant differences in myocardial strain were observed between patients with HbA1c 5.7%-6.4% and HbA1c < 5.7% (P = 0.716; P = 0.294; P = 0.883, respectively). After adjustment for confounders, HbA1c as a continuous variable (beta coefficient [β] = -0.676; β = 0.172; β = 0.205, respectively) and HbA1c ≥ 6.5% (β = -3.682; β = 0.552; β = 0.681, respectively) were both independently associated with decreased GRS, GCS, and GLS. DATA CONCLUSION Patients with uncontrolled blood glucose (categorized in group HbA1c ≥ 6.5%) had worse myocardial strain. The level of HbA1c appeared to be independently associated with decreased myocardial strain in STEMI patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE 2 TECHNICAL EFFICACY STAGE: 2.

Insights Imaging 2023; 14:7.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Poor glycemic control is associated with left ventricular (LV) dysfunction in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Nonetheless, the association between glycemic control and right ventricular (RV) function in T2DM has not been studied. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between glycemic control and biventricular function and assess whether one ventricular function was mediated by the other ventricular changes using cardiac magnetic resonance. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 91 T2DM patients with normal ejection fraction were enrolled and divided into two groups according to glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) with a cut off 7%. Twenty controls were included. Biventricular ventricular strain parameters, including global peak systolic radial strain, global peak systolic circumferential strain (GCS), global peak systolic longitudinal strain (GLS), peak diastolic radial strain rate (RSR), peak diastolic circumferential strain rate (CSR) and peak diastolic longitudinal strain rate (LSR) were measured. RESULTS Compared with controls, patients with both HbA1c < 7% and HbA1c ≥ 7% showed significantly lower LVGCS, LVGLS, LVCSR, LVLSR, RVGLS, RVRSR, RVCSR and RVLSR. Patients with HbA1c ≥ 7% elicited significantly higher RVGCS than controls and lower LVGLS, LVCSR, LVLSR, RVGLS and RVLSR. Multivariable linear regression demonstrated that HbA1c was independently associated with LVGLS, LVLSR, RVGLS and RVLSR after adjustment for traditional risk factors. LV (RV) was not statistically mediated by the other ventricular alterations. CONCLUSION In T2DM patients, glycemic control was independently associated with impaired LV and RV systolic and diastolic function and these associations were not mediated by the other ventricular changes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Evidence for the relationship between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and risk of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in patients with gout remained sparse and limited. This study aims to explore the associations between HbA1c levels and risks of incident CVD in patients with gout. METHODS We included patients with gout who had an HbA1c measurement at baseline from the UK Biobank. CVD events were identified from through medical and death records. We used multivariable Cox proportional hazards model with a restricted cubic spline to assess the potential non-linear effect of HbA1c on CVD risk. RESULTS We included a total of 6,685 patients (mean age 59.7; 8.1% females) with gout for analyses. During a mean follow-up of 7.3 years, there were 1,095 CVD events documented with an incidence of 2.26 events per 100 person-years (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.13-2.40). A quasi J-shaped association between HbA1c and risk of CVD was observed, with the potentially lowest risk found at the HbA1c of approximately 5.0% (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.65, 95% CI: 0.53-0.81). When compared with the HbAlc level of 7%, a significantly decreased risk of CVD was found from 5.0 to 6.5%, while an increased risk was observed at 7.5% (HR = 1.05) and 8.0% (HR = 1.09). Subgroup analyses yielded similar results to the main findings in general. CONCLUSIONS Based on data from a nationwide, prospective, population-based cohort, we found a quasi J-shaped relationship between HbA1c and risk of CVD in patients with gout. More high-quality evidence is needed to further clarify the relationship between HbA1c and CVD risk in patients with gout.

Abstract
Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) increases the risk of worse long-term outcomes in patients with non-ischemic dilated cardiomyopathy (NIDCM). However, the additive effects of T2DM on left ventricular (LV) function in NIDCM remain unclear. Accordingly, we aimed to investigate the impact of comorbid T2DM on LV deformation in NIDCM individuals. Materials and methods Three hundred forty-two NIDCM patients without T2DM [NIDCM (T2DM−)], 93 with T2DM [NIDCM (T2DM+)] and 80 age- and sex-matched normal controls who underwent cardiac magnetic resonance scanning were included. LV geometry, function, and LV global strains, including peak strain (PS), peak systolic strain rate (PSSR) and peak diastolic strain rate (PDSR) in the radial, circumferential and longitudinal directions, were measured. NIDCM (T2DM+) patients were divided into two subgroups based on the HbA1c level (< 7.0% and ≥ 7.0%). The determinants of reduced LV myocardial strain for all NIDCM individuals and NIDCM (T2DM+) patients were assessed using multivariable linear regression analyses. Results Compared with normal controls, both NIDCM (T2DM −) and NIDCM (T2DM+) patients exhibited increased LV end-diastolic and end-systolic volume index and decreased LV ejection fraction. LV global strains progressively declined from the normal controls to the NIDCM (T2DM−) group to the NIDCM (T2DM+) group (all p < 0.017), except for radial PDSR and PSSR. Subgroup analysis showed that LV global radial PS and longitudinal PS, PSSR-L and PDSR-L were worse in NIDCM patients with poor glycemic control than in those with good glycemic control (p < 0.017). T2DM was an independent determinant of reduced LV global circumferential PS and longitudinal PS in patients with NIDCM (both p < 0.05). An increased HbA1c level was independently associated with a decreased global radial PS (β = − 0.285, p < 0.01) and longitudinal PS (β = 0.320, p < 0.01) in NIDCM (T2DM+) patients. Conclusions T2DM has an additive deleterious effect on LV systolic and diastolic function in NIDCM patients. Among NIDCM patients with T2DM, HbA1c was found to be associated with reduced LV myocardial strain.

Cardiovasc Toxicol 2022; 22:493-500.

Abstract
Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) is a useful biomarker for the diagnosis of diabetes and also for determination of individuals with an increased risk of a severe disease. Some subtle changes in myocardial contractile function is measurable by post-systolic index (PSI) which is defined as late systolic shortening after aortic valve closure. The aim of our study was to determine the relationship between HbA1c and PSI in patients with non-apparent coronary artery disease (CAD) on angiograms. This study was a historical cohort study on 85 consecutive patients with a left ventricular ejection fraction ≥ 50% and non-apparent CAD on angiogram. Patients were divided into two groups based on their HbA1c levels, regardless of the diagnosis of diabetes in these patients, to patients with an HbA1c level of equal or higher than 5.7% and those with an HbA1c of less than 5.7%. A speckle-tracking echocardiography was performed for all patients and global longitudinal strain, PSI, left ventricular diameters, left atrial volume, pulsed-Doppler-derived transmitral early (E wave) and late (A wave) diastolic velocities, and tissue-Doppler-derived mitral annular early diastolic (e') and peak systolic (s') velocities were determined. PSI, E/e' ratio, and A wave were higher and e' velocity was lower in patients with HbA1c ≥ 5.7% than those with a level of < 5.7% (P value = 0.04, 0.001, 0.014, and 0.004, respectively). Other echocardiographic variables were not different between two groups. Multiple linear regression analysis showed the association between HbA1c and PSI was independent of other demographic, biochemical, and echocardiographic variables (B = 35.674, 95% CI 10.741-60.606, P value = 0.006). Our study showed PSI is more pronounced in individuals with an HbA1c > 5.7% than those with a lower value in the absence of CAD. Because PSI is an important indicator of adverse outcome and increased mortality, these data can underline the importance of an abnormal HbA1c level and its association with subtle cardiac dysfunction, irrespective of the diagnosis of diabetes in patients with non-apparent CAD.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death in people with diabetes. Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC) is an important complication of diabetes and represents a distinct subtype of heart failure that occurs in absence of cardiovascular diseases. Chronic hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia along with insulin resistance and inflammatory milieu are the main mechanisms involved in the pathophysiology of DC. Changes in lifestyle favoring healthy dietary patterns and physical activity, combined with more innovative anti-diabetes therapies, are the current treatment strategies to safeguard the cardiovascular system. This review aims at providing an updated comprehensive overview of clinical, pathogenetic, and molecular aspects of DC, with a focus on the effects of anti-hyperglycemic drugs on the prevention of pump dysfunction and consequently on cardiovascular health in type 2 diabetes.

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.
