Increased arterial stiffness and impaired right atrial function are key characteristics of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes.
Does combined CAVI and RA strain assessment aid in the early detection of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in patients with type 2 diabetes?
Combined assessment of arterial stiffness and right atrial strain may serve as a useful tool for the early detection of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes.
Both increased arterial stiffness and impaired RA function characterized CAN, indicating a key cardiovascular interaction. Combined CAVI and RA strain assessment may aid early detection.
Tabata et al. (2026) studied this question. Increased arterial stiffness and impaired right atrial function are key characteristics of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes.
