Abstract

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) involves a series of metabolic conditions associated with hyperglycaemia which is caused by defects in insulin secretion and./or insulin action. The aim of this work was assessment of the relationship between Aortic Root (AOR) diameter and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in Hypertension (HTN) cases. Methods: This prospective case control study was carried out on 80 HTN cases. Cases were divided in to three groups: Group A (30 HTN cases) with type 2 DM with good metabolic control (Hb AIC ≤ 7.0), group B: (30 HTN cases) with type 2 DM with poor metabolic control (Hb AIC > 7.0) and C (Control group) 20 HTN, non-DM subjects of the same age and sex group with no other comorbid conditions. Results: FS had a significant decline in group A (P2 = 0.001) and in group B (P3 <0.001) than C. EF had a significant difference among all groups (P <0.001). Early wave declaration time (DT) had a significant decline in group A (P2 = 0.049) and in group B (P3= 0.023) than C. Tissue doppler early velocity wave had a significant difference among all groups (P = 0.004). Tissue doppler early velocity wave had a significant decline in group A and B than C. (P2 = 0.038. P3 = 0.003). Conclusions: AOR in HTN cases had a significant decline in DM cases compared with non-DM cases. In our results, glycaemic control didn’t play a significant role in aortic root.
