Myocardial Abnormalities Across the AHA/ACC Stages of Heart Failure in Patients With Diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) could serve as a robust tool for comprehensive evaluation of early changes across heart failure (HF) stages classified by the American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology guideline in diabetes mellitus (DM).

Objectives

The authors aimed to explore phenotypic imaging features characterizing DM participants at different HF stages by CMR.

Methods

DM participants with preserved ejection fraction who underwent CMR examination between January 2020 and December 2021 were evaluated. Left ventricular strain analysis and myocardial fibrosis was evaluated by CMR.

Results

A total of four hundred seventy-five DM participants at different HF stages (mean age 56 ± 12 years; 326 men) and 78 healthy control subjec
