Key result
LVGFI strongly correlates with LVEF in diabetic patients with chronic ischemic heart disease.
Why the study?
The role of the left ventricular global function index in patients with chronic ischemic disease of the heart on the background of diabetes mellitus had not been studied.
Does left ventricular global function index correlate with cardiac systolic functions in patients with chronic ischemic disease of the heart and diabetes mellitus?
Cross-Sectional (n=118)
Does left ventricular global function index correlate with cardiac systolic functions in patients with chronic ischemic disease of the heart and diabetes mellitus?
Effect estimate: r = 0.84
p-value: p=<0.05
The left ventricular global function index is strongly associated with systolic functions and may serve as a useful assessment tool for heart functional performance in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease and diabetes.

LVGFI strongly correlates with LVEF in CIDH+DM patients; leaves open its incremental prognostic value beyond standard systolic measures.
Mukhamedova et al. (2019) conducted a cross-sectional in Chronic ischemic disease of the heart and diabetes mellitus (n=118). Left ventricular global function index (LVGFI) was evaluated on Relationship between LVGFI and ejection fraction (r = 0.84, p=<0.05). Left ventricular global function index was strongly correlated with ejection fraction (r=0.84, p<0.05) and other systolic functions in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease and diabetes.
