Key result
Cardiac function parameters measured by conventional echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging differed between children with type 1 diabetes mellitus and healthy controls.
Why the study?
Conventional echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging diagnose diastolic and systolic dysfunction, but their comparison in detecting cardiac dysfunctions in type 1 diabetes mellitus needed evaluation.
Do tissue Doppler imaging and conventional echocardiography detect differences in cardiac function in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus compared to healthy controls?
Case-Control (n=140)
No
Do tissue Doppler imaging and conventional echocardiography detect differences in cardiac function in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus compared to healthy controls?
Tissue Doppler imaging and conventional echocardiography identify significant differences in systolic and diastolic cardiac function parameters in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes compared to healthy controls.
Suggests early cardiac involvement in pediatric type 1 diabetes; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before screening implications.

Noori et al. (2019) conducted a case-control in Diabetes mellitus type 1 (n=140). Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus vs. Children referred to hospital for checkup was evaluated on Cardiac function parameters measured by conventional echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging. Cardiac function parameters measured by conventional echocardiography and tissue Doppler imaging differed between children with type 1 diabetes mellitus and healthy controls.
