Abstract:Background: The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and chronic aortic regurgitation (AR) increases with age and might increase cardiac morbidity and mortality; however, their comprehensive effects based on cardiac strain remain unexplored. This study aimed to use cardiac magnetic resonance feature tracking to investigate the additive effects of T2DM and AR on the left heart and left-atrioventricular (LA) interaction in patients with T2DM and AR.
Methods: A total of 286 patients with T2DM (203 withou… Show more
