Asymptomatic cardiovascular manifestations in diabetes mellitus: left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and silent myocardial ischemia.
INTRODUCTION Several cardiovascular manifestations in patients with diabetes may be asymptomatic. Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction (LVDD) is considered to be the earliest metabolic myocardial lesion in these patients, and can be diagnosed with tissue Doppler echocardiography. Silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) is a characteristic and frequently described form of ischemic heart disease in pa...
متن کاملKey words: silent myocardial ischemia - diagnosis and treatment, diabetes mellitus
Silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) is defined as the presence of objective evidence of myocardial ischemia in the absence of chest discomfort or other anginal equivalents. Most silent ischemic episodes occur during minimal or no physical exertion. The exact reasons for the development of angina during some episodes of myocardial ischemia and the absence of symptoms during other episodes are not k...
متن کاملSilent myocardial ischemia screening in patients with diabetes mellitus.
The prevalence of diabetes mellitus is fairly increasing, especially in the developing countries. Diabetes is a major cardiovascular risk factor; it often leads to severe cardiovascular complications, and coronary artery disease (CAD) is the main cause of death in diabetic patients. Silent myocardial ischemia (SMI) is more frequent in diabetic patients. The progress made in detection and treatm...
متن کاملSilent myocardial ischemia in patients with diabetes mellitus.
50 patients with diabetes were compared with 20 non-diabetic subjects, with respect to the prevalence of silent myocardial ischemia, by means of treadmill exercise testing. Results of treadmill exercise testing showed ischemia in 14 of the 50 diabetic patients (mean age 49.2 * 1.3) and in 2 of 20 non-diabetic control subjects (mean age 49 * 6 y.) (28%VS lo%, P < 0.05). Diabetics with “positive ...
متن کاملechocardiographic assessment of inappropriate left ventricular mass and left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with diastolic dysfunction
background: early diagnosis of left ventricular mass (lvm) inappropriateness and left ventricular hypertrophy (lvh) can result in preventing diastolic left ventricular dysfunction and its related morbidity and mortality. this study was performed to determine if diastolic dysfunction is associated with lvh and inappropriate lvm. methods: one hundred and twenty five uncomplicated hypertensi...
