Myocardial structure, function, and scar in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:We report relationships between cardiovascular disease risk factors and myocardial structure, function, and scar in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus in the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications (DCCT/EDIC) study. METHODS AND RESULTS:Cardiac magnetic resonance was obtained in 1017 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. Gadolinium cardiac magnetic resonance was also obtained in 741 patients. The mean age was 49±7 years; 52% were men; and mean duration of diabetes mellitus was 28±5 years. Associations of cardiovascular disease risk factors with cardiac magnetic resonance parameters were examined with linear and logistic regression models. History of macroalbuminuria was positively associated with left ventricular mass (by 14.8 g), leading to a significantly higher ratio of left ventricular mass to end-diastolic volume (by 8%). Mean hemoglobin A(1c) levels over the preceding 22 years were inversely associated with end-diastolic volume (-3.0 mL per unit mean hemoglobin A(1c) percent) and stroke volume (-2.3 mL per unit mean hemoglobin A(1c) percent) and positively related to the ratio of elevated left ventricular mass to end-diastolic volume (0.02 g/mL per unit). The overall prevalence of myocardial scar was 4.3% by cardiac magnetic resonance and 1.4% by clinical adjudication of myocardial infarction. Both mean hemoglobin A(1c) (odds ratio, 1.5 [95% confidence interval, 1.0-2.2] per unit) and macroalbuminuria (odds ratio, 3.5 [95% confidence interval, 1.2-9.9]) were significantly associated with myocardial scar and traditional cardiovascular disease risk factors. CONCLUSIONS:In addition to traditional cardiovascular disease risk factors, elevated mean hemoglobin A(1c) and macroalbuminuria were significantly associated with alterations in left ventricular structure and function. The prevalence of myocardial scar was 4.3% in this subcohort of DCCT/EDIC participants with relatively preserved renal function. Clinical Trial Registration-URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Project description:Myocardial extracellular matrix expansion and reduced coronary flow reserve (CFR) occur in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without heart failure or coronary artery disease. Because aldosterone is implicated in the pathophysiology of cardiac fibrosis and vascular injury, the aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that aldosterone is associated with extracellular matrix expansion and reduced CFR in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without evidence of coronary artery disease were recruited. Blood pressure, lipid management, and glycemic control were optimized over 3 months. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging with T1 mapping was used to measure myocardial extracellular volume (ECV). Cardiac positron emission tomography was used to assess CFR. On a liberal, 250 mEq/day sodium diet, 24-hour urinary aldosterone and change in serum aldosterone with angiotensin II stimulation were measured. Fifty-three participants with type 2 diabetes (68% men, mean age 53 ± 7 years, mean body mass index 32.2 ± 4.3 kg/m², mean glycosylated hemoglobin 6.8 ± 0.7%, mean systolic blood pressure 126 ± 14 mm Hg) without infarction or ischemia by cardiac magnetic resonance and positron emission tomography were studied. Subjects had impaired CFR (2.51 ± 0.83) and elevated ECV (0.36 ± 0.05), despite normal echocardiographic diastolic function and normal left ventricular function. Myocardial ECV, but not CFR, was positively associated with 24-hour urinary aldosterone excretion (r = 0.37, p = 0.01) and angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone increase (r = 0.35, p = 0.02). In a best-overall multivariate model (including age, gender, body mass index, glycosylated hemoglobin, and blood pressure), 24-hour urinary aldosterone was the strongest predictor of myocardial ECV (p = 0.004). In conclusion, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus without coronary artery disease, aldosterone is associated with myocardial extracellular matrix expansion. These results implicate aldosterone in early myocardial remodeling in type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Project description:BackgroundType 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a risk factor for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and a common comorbidity in patients with AMI. T2DM doubles the fatality rate of patients with AMI in the acute phase of AMI and the follow-up period. However, the mechanisms by which T2DM increases the fatality rate remain unknown. This study sought to investigate changes in the gut microbiota of patients with AMI and T2DM (AMIDM) to extend understandings of the relative mechanisms from the aspects of gut microbiota.MethodsPatients were recruited and divided into 2 groups comprising 15 patients with AMIDM and 15 patients with AMI but without T2DM (AMINDM). Their stool samples and clinical information were collected. 16S ribosomal DNA sequencing was used to analyze the structure and composition of the gut microbiota based on the operational taxonomic units.ResultsA significant difference was observed in the gut microbiota β diversity between the 2 groups. At the phylum level, the AMIDM patients showed an increase in the abundance of Firmicutes and a decrease in the abundance of Bacteroidetes compared to the AMINDM patients. At the genus level, the AMIDM patients showed an increase in the abundance of Companilactobacillus, Defluvitaleaceae UCG-011 and UCG-009, and a decrease in the abundance of Phascolarctobacterium and CAG 56 compared to the AMINDM patients. At the species level, the AMIDM patients showed an increase in the abundance of species unclassified NK4A214 group, Bacteroides clarus, Coprococcus comes, unclassified Defluviltaleaceae UCG-011, uncultured rumen bacterium, unclassified CAG 56, Barnesiella intestinihominis, Lachnospiraceae bacterium, Bacteroides nordii, unclassified UCG-009, and the Family XIII AD3011 group compared to the AMINDM patients. The gut microbiota function predictions indicated that the nucleotide metabolism-related pathway was significantly more increase in the patients with AMIDM than those with AMINDM. Additionally, the patients with AMIDM showed an increase in gram-positive bacteria and a decrease in the proportion of gram-negative bacteria. Our correlation analysis results on the gut microbiota and clinical parameters might extend understandings of the progression of AMI.ConclusionsChanges in the gut microbiota composition of patients with AMIDM affect the severity of the metabolic disturbance and may be responsible for poorer clinical outcomes and worse disease progression in patients with AMIDM compared to those with AMINDM.
