Assessment of new-onset heart failure prediction in a diabetic population using left ventricular global strain: a prospective cohort study based on UK Biobank.

BACKGROUND: Impaired glucose utilization influences myocardial contractile function. However, the prognostic importance of left ventricular global radial strain (LV-GRS), left ventricular global circumferential strain (LV-GCS), and left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV-GLS) in predicting new-onset heart failure (HF) in a population with diabetes is unclear.

METHODS: The study design is prospective cohort from the UK Biobank. Totally 37,899 participants had a complete data of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR), of which 940 patients with diabetes were included, and all the participants completed follow-up. LV-GRS, LV-GCS, and LV-GLS were measured by completely automated CMR with tissue tagging. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis and C-index was performed to evaluate the association between the strain parameters and the new-onset HF in patients suffering from diabetes.

RESULTS: The average age of the 940 participants was 57.67 ± 6.97 years, with males comprising 66.4% of the overall population. With an average follow-up period of 166.82 ± 15.26 months, 35 (3.72%) patients reached the endpoint (emergence of new-onset HF). Significant associations were found for the three strain parameters and the new-onset HF (LV-GRS-hazard ratio [HR]: 0.946, 95% CI: 0.916-0.976; LV-GCS-HR: 1.162, 95% CI: 1.086-1.244; LV-GCS-HR: 1.181, 95% CI: 1.082-1.289). LV-GRS, LV-GCS, and LV-GLS were closely related to the related indicators to HF, and showed a high relationship to new-onset HF in individuals with diabetes at 5 and 10 years: LV-GRS: 0.75 (95% CI, 0.41-0.94) and 0.76 (95% CI, 0.44-0.98), respectively; LV-GCS: 0.80 (95% CI, 0.50-0.96) and 0.75 (95% CI, 0.41-0.98), respectively; LV-GLS: 0.72 (95% CI, 0.40-0.93) and 0.76 (95% CI, 0.48-0.97), respectively. In addition, age, sex, body mass index (BMI), and presence of hypertension or coronary artery disease (CAD) made no impacts on the association between the global strain parameters and the incidence of HF.

CONCLUSION: LV-GRS, LV-GCS, and LV-GLS is significantly related to new-onset HF in patients with diabetes at 5 and 10 years.
