Figure 1 Relation of LVEDVI and the Estimate of LV Filling Pressure E/Ea

Relation between left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI) and the estimate of left ventricular (LV) filling pressure E/Ea in control subjects (open box, n = 24) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients (solid box, n = 78). Values are mean ± SD. The LVEDVI was significantly lower in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (p < 0.001) at similar estimates of LV filling pressure (E/Ea, p = 0.228) compatible with decreased LV compliance in T2DM patients.
