Objective: We aimed to comprehensively determine the effects of hypertension on left
ventricular (LV) structure, microcirculation, tissue characteristics, and deformation in type 2 …

Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) increases the risks of heart failure and
mortality in patients with hypertension, however the underlying mechanism is unclear. This …

Background Essential hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are two common
chronic diseases that often coexist, and both of these diseases can cause heart damage …

Background Diabetic cardiomyopathy is characterized by cardiac structural and functional
abnormalities. Additionally, chronic pressure overload conditions are highly prevalent …

Although the association of systemic hypertension (SH) with diabetes mellitus (DM) is well
established, the cardiac features and hemodynamic profile of patients with SH and DM …

Background Diabetes mellitus-related cardiomyopathy has recently been described as a
distinct progression of left ventricular (LV) systolic and diastolic dysfunction. Pathological …

Concentric left ventricular (LV) remodeling is associated with adverse cardiovascular events
and is frequently observed in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Despite this, the …

Background Previous studies reported that there was right ventricular (RV) systolic
dysfunction in patients with hypertension. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of …

Aims To characterize left ventricular function in hypertensive patients with Type 2 diabetes
and normal ejection fraction, and to relate these findings to pathogenic factors and clinical …

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Diabetes is associated with left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) and
impaired systolic function in hypertensive patients, but less is known about its impact on LVH …
