Key result
Truncated abstract fails to report quantitative data linking autonomic neuropathy to LV function.
Why the study?
Does autonomic cardiovascular function influence left ventricular function in diabetic patients?
Observational (n=49)
Does autonomic cardiovascular function influence left ventricular function in diabetic patients?
This study aimed to investigate the relationship between autonomic cardiovascular function and left ventricular function in diabetic patients using tissue Doppler imaging, though results are not reported in the truncated abstract.
No results reported on autonomic neuropathy and LV function in diabetes; leaves open whether autonomic cardiovascular function influences cardiac performance.
No abstract yet. The journal hasn't published one we can show.

Humpert et al. (2008) conducted an observational in Type 2 diabetes (n=49). Autonomic neuropathy (autonomic cardiovascular function) vs. Different tertiles of expiration-to-inspiration ratio of heart rate variability was evaluated on Left ventricular diastolic function.
