Zusammenfassung

Background: There is evidence to indicate that asymmetric septal hypertrophy (ASH) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is related to the left ventricular remodeling after myocardial infarction and systemic hypertension. We evaluated whether diabetes mellitus is associated with ASH in CAD patients. Methods: We recruited 2553 consecutive patients (age 51.4±7.6 years) with angiographic CAD (>50% stenosis). Echocardiography revealed ASH (interventricular septum to LV free wall thickness ratio >1.3) in 266 patients (10.4%) (Group 1). Group 2 consisted of 2287 patients without ASH. Patients with acute myoca…
