Objective: To evaluate the effects of impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) on ventricular remodeling.

Methods: Parameters of every subject including left ventricular mass (LVM), left ventricular mass index (LVMI), E/A ratio, 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) data including 24-hour mean systolic blood pressure (mSBP) and 24-hour mean diastolic blood pressure (mDBP) were collected. Then the relationship of IGT and myocardial remodeling related parameters were analyzed.
