Figure 3.
Correlation between changes in clinical and echocardiographic parameters from baseline to 3 years. The correlation of clinical parameters, including hemoglobin level, SBP, HbA1c, and triglyceride, and echocardiographic parameters, including (a) LVEDD, (b) RWT, and (c) LVMI, was demonstrated. Abbreviations: HbA1c, glycosylated hemoglobin; LVEDD, left ventricular end-diastolic dimension; LVMI, left ventricular mass index; SBP, systolic blood pressure; RWT, relative wall thickness.
