Relationship between hemoglobin glycation index and myocardial mechano-energetic efficiency in non-diabetic individual

Cardiovasc DiabetolPublished Cross-sectional study

Authors' conclusion

These findings support the hypothesis that higher HGI values may affect myocardial mechano-energetic efficiency in non-diabetic individuals.

Study context

Population
Non-diabetic adults with different glucose tolerance statuses (normal glucose tolerance or prediabetes), CATAMERI study
Participants
1,074 adults
Exposure
Highest vs lowest hemoglobin glycation index (HGI) quartile
Outcome
Myocardial mechano-energetic efficiency (MEE) per gram of left ventricular mass (MEEi) by echocardiography

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

MEEi

Inverse correlation between HGI and MEEi

r = - 0.210

P < 0.001

Observational data: associations, not effects.
