Abstract：
:Left ventricular mass index (LVMI) increase has been described in hypertension (HTN), but less is known about its association with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). As these conditions frequently co-exist, we investigated the association of T2DM, HTN and both with echocardiographic parameters, and hypothesized that patients with both had highest LVMI, followed by patients with only T2DM or HTN. Study population included 101 T2DM patients, 62 patients with HTN and no T2DM, and 76 patients with T2DM and HTN, excluded for ischemic heart disease. Demographic and clinical data, biochemical measurements, stress echocardiography, transthoracic 2D Doppler and tissue Doppler echocardiography were performed. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine the independent association with T2DM. Linear regression models and Pearson's correlation were used to assess the correlations between LVMI and other parameters. Patients with only T2DM had significantly greater LVMI (84.9 ± 20.3 g/m2) compared to patients with T2DM and HTN (77.9 ± 16 g/m2) and only HTN (69.8 ± 12.4 g/m2). In multivariate logistic regression analysis, T2DM was associated with LVMI (OR 1.033, 95%CI 1.003-1.065, p = 0.029). A positive correlation of LVMI was found with fasting glucose (p < 0.001) and HbA1c (p = 0.0003). Increased LVMI could be a potential, pre-symptomatic marker of myocardial structural change in T2DM.
