Cross-sectional study identified prevalence of left ventricular dysfunction in T2DM, suggesting the need for early echocardiographic evaluation.

Subclinical myocardial dysfunction is prevalent in T2DM populations, affecting 53.9% of patients.
Standard transthoracic echocardiography and speckle-tracking echocardiography were utilized for assessment.
Logistic regression identified major predictors of diastolic dysfunction and reduced GLS.
Incorporating GLS evaluation could enhance cardiovascular risk management in diabetic patients.

Nghiem et al. (2025) studied this question.
