OBJECTIVES: This study sought to identify whether impaired global longitudinal strain (GLS), diastolic dysfunction (DD), or left atrial enlargement (LAE) should be added to stage B heart failure (SBHF) criteria in asymptomatic patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. BACKGROUND: SBHF is a precursor to clinical heart failure (HF), and its recognition justifies initiation of cardioprotective therapy. However, original definitions of SBHF were based on LV hypertrophy and impaired ejection fraction. METHODS: Patients with asymptomatic type 2 diabetes mellitus ≥65 years of age (age 71 ± 4 years; 55% men) with preserved ejection fraction and no ischemic heart disease were recruited from a community-based population. All underwent a standard clinical evaluation, and a comprehensive echocardiogram, including assessment of left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), LAE, DD (abnormal E/e'), and GLS (<16%). Over a median follow-up of 1.5 years (range 0.5 to 3), 20 patients were lost to follow-up, and 290 individuals were entered into the final analyses. RESULTS: In this asymptomatic group, LV dysfunction was identified in 30 (10%) by DD, 68 (23%) by LVH, 102 (35%) by LAE, and 68 (23%) by impaired GLS. New-onset HF developed in 45 patients and 4 died, giving an event rate of 112/1,000 person-years. Survival free of the composite endpoint (HF and death) was about 1.5-fold higher in patients without a normal, compared with an abnormal echocardiogram. LVH, LAE, and GLS <16% were associated with increased risk of the composite endpoint, independent of ARIC risk score and glycosylated hemoglobin, but abnormal E/e' was not. The addition of left atrial volume and GLS provided incremental value to the current standard of clinical risk (ARIC score) and LVH. In a competing-risks regression analysis, LVH (hazard ratio: 2.90; p < 0.001) and GLS <16% (hazard ratio: 2.26; p = 0.008), but not DD and LAE were associated with incident HF. CONCLUSIONS: Subclinical left ventricular systolic dysfunction is prevalent in asymptomatic elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, and impaired GLS is independent and incremental to LVH in the prediction of incident HF.
目的:本研究旨在探讨对于无症状 2 型糖尿病患者,是否应将局部纵向应变(GLS)受损、舒张功能障碍(DD)或左心房扩大(LAE)加入到 B 期心力衰竭(SBHF)标准中。
背景:SBHF 是临床心力衰竭(HF)的前兆,识别 SBHF 可证明启动心脏保护治疗的合理性。然而,SBHF 的最初定义是基于左心室肥厚和射血分数降低。
方法:本研究纳入了年龄≥65 岁(71±4 岁;55%为男性)、无缺血性心脏病且射血分数正常的社区人群中无症状 2 型糖尿病患者。所有患者均接受了标准的临床评估以及全面的超声心动图检查,包括左心室肥厚(LVH)、LAE、DD(异常 E/e')和 GLS(<16%)的评估。中位随访时间为 1.5 年(0.5-3 年),共有 20 例患者失访,290 例患者纳入最终分析。
结果:在这个无症状的患者群体中,通过 DD 发现 30 例(10%)存在左室功能障碍,68 例(23%)存在 LVH,102 例(35%)存在 LAE,68 例(23%)存在 GLS 降低。45 例患者新发 HF,4 例死亡,发生率为 112/1000 人年。与超声心动图异常的患者相比,无正常超声心动图的患者发生复合终点(HF 和死亡)的风险低约 1.5 倍。LVH、LAE 和 GLS<16%与复合终点风险增加相关,独立于 ARIC 风险评分和糖化血红蛋白,但异常 E/e'则不然。左心房容积和 GLS 的加入为当前临床风险(ARIC 评分)和 LVH 的标准提供了额外的价值。在竞争风险回归分析中,LVH(风险比:2.90;p<0.001)和 GLS<16%(风险比:2.26;p=0.008),而非 DD 和 LAE,与 HF 事件相关。
结论:亚临床左心室收缩功能障碍在无症状的老年 2 型糖尿病患者中较为常见,GLS 受损与 LVH 一样,是 HF 事件的独立且增量预测因子。
