CONCLUSION
LA remodeling is a recurrent condition in the adult T2DM population. The
reservoir and pump LA functions were the most affected. Assessment of LA
global strain allows early detection of LA remodeling and dysfunction
with comparison to LA size standard analyses and LV filling pressures
determined by E/E’ ratio respectively. Age, BMI, indexed LA volume, E/E’
ratio, reservoir and pump LA functions were associated to 2D LA global
strain impairment.
