Diabetes Mellitus n = 24 | No Diabetes Mellitus n = 172 | P | |
---|---|---|---|
TO | −0.6 ± 3.1 | −2.5 ± 5.5 | <0.02 |
TS | 3.7 ± 3.3 | 5.1 ± 3.6 | n.s. (0.07) |
TO > 0% | 14 (58%) | 39 (23%) | <0.05 |
TS < 2.5 ms | 14 (58%) | 43 (26%) | <0.05 |
EF: left ventricular ejection fraction; TO: turbulence onset; TS: turbulence slope; P value < 0.05 is considered as significant.
