Abstract
Coronary flow velocity reserve (CFR) and aortic distensibility are altered not only in significant coronary artery disease (CAD) [1], but even in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) with normal epicardial coronary arteries [2]. Aortic distensibility is reduced, but coronary flow velocity reserve is similar in diabetic versus nondiabetic patients with coronary artery disease [3,4]. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate CFR and aortic distensibility indices in patients with different kinds of multivessel disease (MVD) with and without DM.
