Abstract
- Heart failure is common in the diabetic population, but while diabetic cardiomyopathy can cause heart failure, it is underestimated. Hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia and inflammation in diabetes are thought to play key roles in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Echocardiography has been the optimal noninvasive imaging test to evaluate the presence of cardiac dysfunction and it can provide clues to detect diabetic cardiomyopathy. This review discusses the echocardiographic findings of diabetic cardiomyopathy.
