Subclinical LV dysfunction may persist despite standard hypoglycaemic therapy in maturity-onset diabetes; hypothesis-generating for targeted interventions.
Does standard hypoglycaemic treatment affect left ventricular function in maturity onset diabetics without clinical heart disease?
Maturity onset diabetics without clinical heart disease frequently exhibit subclinical left ventricular dysfunction that persists during standard hypoglycemic treatment.
Shapiro et al. (1980) studied this question.
