- The study aims to explore how various factors affect early heart dysfunction in younger adults with Type 2 diabetes using advanced imaging techniques.
- It involved 20 participants under 40 years with Type 2 diabetes and 20 control subjects, measuring heart volume, function, and other cardiovascular metrics through cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging.
- Results showed that longer diabetes duration and decreased aortic flexibility are linked to diastolic dysfunction, suggesting the need for further research on potential treatments for these patients.
