Assessing coronary artery stenosis exacerbated impact on left ventricular function and deformation in metabolic syndrome patients by 3.0 T cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) and coronary artery stenosis (CAS) independently increase the risk of cardiovascular events, while the impact of CAS on left ventricular (LV) function and deformation in MetS patients remains unclear. This study investigates how varying degrees of CAS exacerbate LV function and myocardial deformation in MetS patients.

Methods

One hundred thirty-one MetS patients who underwent CMR examinations were divided into two groups: the MetS(CAS-) group (n = 47) and the MetS(CAS+) group (n = 84). The MetS(CAS+) group was divided into MetS with non-obstructive CAS(NOCAS+) (n = 30) and MetS with obstructive CAS(OCAS+) group (n = 54). Additionally, 48 age- and sex-matched subjects were included as a control group. LV functional and deformation paramete
