ABSTRACT: Background
Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is caused by a decreased left ventricle relaxation and is associated with an increased risk of symptomatic heart failure (HF) and excessive mortality.Aim
To evaluate the frequency and factors related to LVDD in the population with chronic coronary syndromes (CCS).Methods
200 patients (mean age 63.18 ± 8.12 years, 75.5% male) with CCS were included. LVDD was diagnosed based on the recent echocardiography guidelines.Results
LVDD was diagnosed in 38.5% of CCS population. From the studied factors, after adjustment for age, sex, and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), LVDD associated positively with android/gynoid (A/G) fat mass ratio, left ventricular mass index (LVMI), and negatively with Z-score and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). In stepwise backward logistic regression analysis, the strongest factors associated with LVDD were pulse wave velocity value, handgrip strength and waist to hip ratio (WHR).Conclusions
LVDD is common among CCS patients and it is associated with parameters reflecting android type fat distribution regardless of NT-proBNP and high-sensitivity troponin T concentrations. Deterioration in diastolic dysfunction is linked with increased aortic stiffness independently of age and sex. Further studies evaluating the effects of increasing physical fitness and lowering abdominal fat accumulations on LVDD in CCS patients should be considered.
