  • Title: [Echocardiographic studies and electrocardiographic examination by the Holter method of patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus].
    Author: Piszczek I, Ochotny R, Błaszyk K.
    Journal: Kardiol Pol; 1989; 32(5):241-7. PubMed ID: 2635236.
    Abstract:
    The aim of the study was to evaluate the left ventricular function and cardiac arrhythmias in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes, but without observable changes of the circulatory system in clinical examination. 30 patients underwent the study with the insulin-dependent diabetes treated for 2 months--30 years. There was no evidence of hypertension, renal and hepatic failure. Well controlled diabetes was stated in all of them. The control group consisted of 20 healthy persons. M-mode echocardiographic examination and 24-hour Holter ecg monitoring was performed in all patients. Decreased left ventricular compliance and complex ventricular arrhythmias were stated in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes.
