Does 2D/3D CMR tissue tracking accurately assess myocardial systolic and diastolic functions compared to CMR tagging in spontaneous T2DM rhesus monkeys with isolated diastolic dysfunction?
2D CMR tissue tracking is an effective and reproducible method for evaluating early-stage diabetic cardiomyopathy in a nonhuman primate model, showing acceptable correlation with the gold-standard CMR tagging.

BACKGROUND: Spontaneous T2DM in rhesus monkeys manifests as isolated diastolic dysfunction in the early stage of diabetic cardiomyopathy, similar to humans. Myocardial deformation measurements have emerged as a superior way to measure left ventricular (LV) function in the early stage of cardiac dysfunction, making it possible to further evaluate early-stage LV dysfunction in spontaneous T2DM rhesus monkeys. METHODS: Spontaneous T2DM rhesus monkeys with isolated diastolic dysfunction (T2DM-DD, n = 10) and corresponding nondiabetic healthy animals (ND, n = 9) were prospectively scanned for a CMR study. Circumferential and longitudinal peak systolic strain (Ecc, Ell), time to peak strain (tEcc, tEll) and peak diastolic strain rate (CSR, LSR) obtained from 2D/3D CMR-TT were compared with those obtained from CMR tagging separately. In addition, all CMR imaging protocols were performed twice in 9 ND animals to assess test-retest reproducibility. RESULTS: Compared with the ND group, the T2DM-DD monkeys demonstrated significantly impaired LV Ecc (- 10.63 ± 3.23 vs - 14.18 ± 3.19, p < 0.05), CSR (65.50 ± 14.48 vs 65.50 ± 14.48, p < 0.01), Ell (- 9.11 ± 2.59 vs - 14.17 ± 1.68, p < 0.05), and LSR (59.43 ± 19.17 vs 108.46 ± 22.33, p < 0.01) with the tagging. Only Ecc (- 13.10 ± 2.47 vs - 19.03 ± 3.69, p < 0.01) and CSR (148.90 ± 31.27 vs 202.00 ± 51.88, p < 0.01) were significantly reduced with 2D CMR-TT, and only Ecc (- 13.77 ± 1.98 vs - 17.26 ± 3.78, p < 0.05) was significantly reduced with 3D CMR-TT. Moreover, 2D/3D CMR-TT-derived Ecc and CSR correlated with the corresponding tagging values collectively, with a statistically significant ICC value (p < 0.05). Test-retest repeatability analysis showed that most tagging-derived biomarkers had acceptable repeatability (p < 0.01). In addition, 2D CMR-TT-derived indicators were poorer than those derived from the tagging method but better than those obtained using the 3D method, with larger ICCs except for tEcc (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: LV systolic and diastolic deformations were impaired in spontaneous T2DM rhesus monkeys previously diagnosed with isolated diastolic dysfunction by echocardiography. The 2D CMR-TT-derived Ecc and CSR were effective in the evaluation of the myocardial systolic and diastolic functions of early-diabetic cardiomyopathy, with relatively higher test-retest reproducibility and acceptable correlation with the tagging method compared with the 3D CMR-TT method.
Zhu et al. (Mon,) conducted a observational in Spontaneous Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus with isolated diastolic dysfunction (n=19). 2D CMR tissue tracking vs. Nondiabetic healthy controls was evaluated on Peak systolic circumferential strain (Ecc) using 2D CMR-TT (p=<0.01). 2D CMR tissue tracking demonstrated significantly impaired peak systolic circumferential strain (-13.10% vs -19.03%) and peak diastolic circumferential strain rate in spontaneous T2DM rhesus monkeys compared to healthy controls.
