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 …

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

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

To determine the feasibility of deformation analysis in the right ventricle (RV) using
cardiovascular magnetic resonance myocardial feature tracking (CMR-FT) in type 2 diabetes …

Background To investigate the difference of right ventricular (RV) structural and functional
alteration in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) with preserved left ventricular ejection …

Aims The aim of this study was to evaluate alterations in left ventricular (LV) systolic and
diastolic function in subjects with prediabetes and diabetes using cardiovascular magnetic …

Background Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) is a major health burden
worldwide with high morbidity and mortality. Comorbidities of HFrEF complicate treatment …

Background Previous studies have found that impaired global myocardial systolic strain is
associated with cardiovascular events in T2DM patients. However, the effect of hypertension …

The aims of this study were to use cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) cine to assess
left atrium (LA) and left ventricle (LV) function and structure in normotensive type 2 diabetes …
