Mechanisms of diabetic complications. (2013, background): “Diastolic dysfunction is observed in up to 40–60% of subjects with heart failure (32, 689, 690), with diabetic individuals overrepresented (348).”
Systolic and diastolic heart failure in the community. (2006, background): “All stratified analyses were performed on the basis of the prespecified aim to describe the distribution of EF and diastolic function among patients with HF. Logistic regression was used to test the hypothesis that patients with reduced EF had more severe diastolic dysfunction than patients with pre”
The clinical significance of subclinical thyroid dysfunction. (2008, background): “This cardiac finding may be an important negative prognostic factor, because isolated left ventricular diastolic dysfunction has been associated with increased morbidity and mortality in the general population (140).”
Myocardial matrix remodeling and the matrix metalloproteinases: influence on cardiac form and function. (2007, background): “Indeed, recent clinical evidence suggests that progressive ECM accumulation and diastolic dysfunction are important underlying pathophysiological mechanisms for heart failure in patients with POH (196, 544, 545).”
