389 Pooled Summary of Subclinical Left Ventricular Longitudinal Systolic Dysfunction in Diabetes Mellitus Using 2D and 3D Speckle Tracking: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of 7256 Diabetics

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major independent risk factor for developing heart failure. Many studies reported reduced global longitudinal strain (GLS) but there is significant heterogeneity among the reported GLS values. Thus, we aimed to estimate pooled 2D and 3D GLS in asymptomatic DM patients with healthy subjects.
