Overview

Speckle-tracking may detect subclinical RV dysfunction in asymptomatic young T1DM; leaves open prognostic value and management implications.

Structured PICO

Does two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography detect subclinical right ventricular dysfunction in asymptomatic young patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus?

P
Population
Young Egyptians with asymptomatic type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)
I
Intervention
Two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography (2D-STE) and standard echocardiography
C
Comparator
Control group (implied as group 2)
O
Outcome
Right ventricular (RV) myocardial performance including peak RV global longitudinal strain (RV-GLS) and functional capacity by treadmill stress testsurrogate

Two-dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography can detect early, subclinical right ventricular systolic and diastolic dysfunction in asymptomatic young patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
