Abstract

IntroductionType 2 diabetes is associated with an increased risk of coronary disease and is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in this population. The main objective of our work is to study the correlation of diastolic function of the left ventricle with coronary disease in type 2 diabetics. Material and methodsAnalytical cross-sectional, monocentric prospective-looking study of 703 type 2 diabetic patients performed at the Military Regional Hospital of Constantine over a period of 04 years (2016-2019). We excluded 338 patients who did not receive coronary angiography; thus 365 patients are ultimately analyzed. Evaluation of diastolic function was performed by two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography with the search of coronary disease. The data was analyzed using the Epi Info 7.2.1.0 with study of the relationship of the diastolic function to coronary disease by multiple logistic regression. ResultsThe average age of our final cohort is 57,7±6,5 years, an average of 7.4±1.8% of glycated hemoglobin, an average of 5,8±4,1 years of diabetes, a sex ratio to 1.27. 49.3% had diastolic dysfunction. The prevalence of coronary disease is 32,9%. In multivariate analysis; diastolic dysfunction is correlated with coronary involvement significantly (OR=2.02, 95% CI [1.50 - 2.90], p=0.02). ConclusionThe prevalence of diastolic dysfunction is high in type 2 diabetics and is significantly correlated with coronary heart disease.
