Correlation between Diastolic Function and Endothelial Function in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes and Hypertension.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Endothelial dysfunction may be involved in the pathophysiology of cardiac abnormalities in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). A correlation between endothelial dysfunction and diastolic dysfunction in patients with type 1 DM has been demonstrated, but this relationship has not been well investigated in type 2 DM. OBJECTIVE:Compare groups of patients with type 2 DM and hypertension with and without diastolic dysfunction using endothelial function indexes, and to assess whether correlations exist between the diastolic function and the endothelial function indexes. METHOD:This was a cross-sectional study of 34 men and women with type 2 DM and hypertension who were aged between 40 and 70 years and were categorized based on assessments of their Doppler echocardiographic parameters as having normal (14 patients) and abnormal (20 patients) diastolic function. Flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) assessments of the brachial artery evaluated the patients' endothelial function. RESULTS:The mean maximum FMD was 7.15 ± 2.80% for the patients with diastolic dysfunction and it was 11.85 ± 4.77% for the patients with normal diastolic function (p = 0.004). Correlations existed between the maximum FMD and the E/e' ratio (p = 0.040, r = -0.354) and the early wave velocity (e') at the lateral mitral annulus (p = 0.002, r = 0.509). CONCLUSION:The endothelial function assessed by FMD was worse in hypertensive diabetic patients with diastolic dysfunction. There were correlations between the diastolic function indexes and the endothelial function indexes in our sample.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) greatly increases the risks of cardiovascular disease and heart failure. In particular, left ventricular diastolic dysfunction that develops from the early stages of T2DM is an important factor in the onset and exacerbation of heart failure. The effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on left ventricular diastolic function has not been elucidated. We have performed the first prospective study on the effects of canagliflozin on left ventricular diastolic function in T2DM. METHODS:This study was performed to evaluate the effects of additional treatment with canagliflozin for 3 months on left ventricular diastolic function in patients with T2DM. A total of 38 patients with T2DM were consecutively recruited for this study. Left ventricular diastolic function was assessed by echocardiography. The primary study outcome was a change in the septal E/e' as a parameter of left ventricular diastolic function. RESULTS:A total of 37 patients (25 males and 12 females) were included in the analysis. Mean age of participants was 64.2?±?8.1 years (mean?±?SD), mean duration of diabetes was 13.5?±?8.1 years, and mean HbA1c was 7.9?±?0.7%. Of the participants, 86.5% had hypertension, 100% had dyslipidemia, and 32.4% had cardiovascular disease. Canagliflozin significantly improved left ventricular diastolic function (septal E/e' ratio 13.7?±?3.5-12.1?±?2.8, p?=?0.001). Furthermore, among the various parameters that changed through the administration of canagliflozin, only changes in hemoglobin significantly correlated with changes in the septal E/e' ratio (p?=?0.002). In multiple regression analysis, changes in hemoglobin were also revealed to be an independent predictive factor for changes in the septal E/e' ratio. CONCLUSIONS:This study showed for the first time that canagliflozin could improve left ventricular diastolic function within 3 months in patients with T2DM. The benefit was especially apparent in patients with substantially improved hemoglobin values. Trial registration UMIN Clinical Trials Registry UMIN000028141.

Project description:AimsTo examine the effect of pioglitazone on epicardial (EAT) and paracardial adipose tissue (PAT) and measures of diastolic function and insulin sensitivity in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).MethodsTwelve patients with T2DM without clinically manifest cardiovascular disease and 12 subjects with normal glucose tolerance (NGT) underwent cardiac magnetic resonance imaging to quantitate EAT and PAT and diastolic function before and after pioglitazone treatment for 24 weeks. Whole-body insulin sensitivity was measured with a euglycaemic insulin clamp and the Matsuda Index (oral glucose tolerance test).ResultsPioglitazone reduced glycated haemoglobin by 0.9% (P < 0.05), increased HDL cholesterol by 7% (P < 0.05), reduced triacylglycerol by 42% (P < 0.01) and increased whole-body insulin-stimulated glucose uptake by 71% (P < 0.01) and Matsuda Index by 100% (P < 0.01). In patients with T2DM, EAT (P < 0.01) and PAT (P < 0.01) areas were greater compared with subjects with NGT, and decreased by 9% (P = 0.03) and 9% (P = 0.09), respectively, after pioglitazone treatment. Transmitral E/A flow rate and peak left ventricular flow rate (PLVFR) were reduced in T2DM versus NGT (P < 0.01) and increased following pioglitazone treatment (P < 0.01-0.05). At baseline normalized PLVFR inversely correlated with EAT (r = -0.45, P = 0.03) but not PAT (r = -0.29, P = 0.16). E/A was significantly and inversely correlated with EAT (r = -0.55, P = 0.006) and PAT (r = -0.40, P = 0.05). EAT and PAT were inversely correlated with whole-body insulin-stimulated glucose uptake (r = -0.68, P < 0.001) and with Matsuda Index (r = 0.99, P < 0.002).ConclusionPioglitazone reduced EAT and PAT areas and improved left ventricular (LV) diastolic function in T2DM. EAT and PAT are inversely correlated (PAT less strongly) with LV diastolic function and both EAT and PAT are inversely correlated with measures of insulin sensitivity.

Project description:AIMS: Diastolic reserve is the ability of left ventricular filling pressures to remain normal with exercise. Impaired diastolic reserve may be an early sign of diabetic cardiomyopathy. We aimed to determine whether diastolic reserve differs in type 2 diabetes (DM) compared with non-DM, and to identify clinical, anthropological, metabolic and resting echocardiographic correlates of impaired diastolic reserve in patients with DM. METHODS AND RESULTS: 237 patients (aged 53±11 years, 133 DM, ejection fraction 68±9%) underwent rest and exercise echocardiography. Mitral E and septal e' were measured at rest, immediately post, and 10 min into recovery. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) and binary regression with continuous outcomes were used to model e' and E/e' changes with exercise to identify impaired diastolic reserve defined as post-exercise E/e' ≥15. After adjusting for baseline differences, patients with DM immediately post-exercise had a lower septal e', a lower Δe' (1.2 vs 2.3 cm/s, p=0.006) and a higher Δ septal E/e' (1.7 vs 0.08, p<0.001) than patients without DM. In patients with normal resting E/e' of ≤8 (n=130), DM had a significantly higher post-exercise septal E/e' and a higher Δseptal E/e' (2.63 vs 0.50, p<0.001). E/e' in patients with DM remained significantly elevated up to 10 min post-exercise. Hypertension, longer duration of insulin therapy, poorer glycaemic control, worse renal function, larger left atrial volume and lower septal e' were independent correlates of impaired diastolic reserve in patients with DM. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with DM have impaired diastolic reserve manifest as a blunted e' response with exercise, persisting into recovery. Clinical, anthropometric, metabolic and echocardiographic correlates of impaired diastolic reserve in patients with DM were identified. An impaired LV diastolic reserve may be the underlying pathophysiological mechanism in patients with DM with unexplained exertional dyspnoea and may allow earlier detection of DM cardiomyopathy.
