Zusammenfassung: | Aim.
To study the dynamics of left ventricular (LV) structure and function, as well as vasomotor activity of arterial endothelium, in patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM-2) and diastolic heart failure (DHF) who are treated with an angiotensin II receptor antagonist olmesartan.
Material and methods.
The study included 56 patients (26 men and 30 women; mean age 58,2±5,3 years) with NYHA Functional Class I-II chronic heart failure (CHF), diastolic LV dysfunction (abnormal relaxation), and LV ejection fraction (EF) >50%. Other inclusion criteria were DM-2 duration |
