Key result
Metabolic syndrome in young adults was associated with significantly lower global longitudinal, circular, radial, and area strain of the ventricles compared to a control group.
Why the study?
The study evaluated LV and RV systolic function and myocardial strain in young adults with newly diagnosed metabolic syndrome to identify potential early markers of myocardial dysfunction.
Does metabolic syndrome impair ventricular systolic function and myocardial strain in young adults?
Observational
Does metabolic syndrome impair ventricular systolic function and myocardial strain in young adults?
Young adults with newly diagnosed metabolic syndrome exhibit early signs of biventricular myocardial dysfunction detectable by 2D and 4D speckle tracking echocardiography.

May indicate early biventricular dysfunction in young adults with metabolic syndrome; hypothesis-generating for strain imaging before clinical adoption.
The purpose of this article is to evaluate the systolic function of the left and right ventricles and measure myocardial Strain in young people (from 18 to 44 years old) with a newly established clinical and laboratory diagnosis of metabolic syndrome (MS) according to the criteria of the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), to identify possible early markers of myocardial dysfunction. All patients underwent standard transthoracic echocardiography (EchoCG) with assessment of systolic function of the left and right ventricles (LV and RV). The work detects early markers of ventricular myocardial dysfunction using speckle tracking 2D and 4D EchoCG, and also investigates the relationship between the main components of MS and echocardiographic parameters. With the help of a comparative analysis, statistical data were revealed on the low global longitudinal strain of the left and right ventricle in 2D and 4D in the main group compared with the control group. In individuals with MS, the mean values of global circular strain (GCS), radial (GRS) strain and global area strain (GAS) of the left ventricle were also significantly lower than the control group. Indicators obesity diseases (body weight and waist circumference) had a negative correlation with the ejection fraction (EF) and parameters of ventricular strain.

Bartosh‐Zelenaya et al. (2023) conducted an observational in Metabolic syndrome. Metabolic syndrome vs. Control group was evaluated on Systolic function and myocardial strain of the left and right ventricles. Metabolic syndrome in young adults was associated with significantly lower global longitudinal, circular, radial, and area strain of the ventricles compared to a control group.
