| Abstract | Background/aims Ventricular–arterial coupling (VAC) plays a crucial role in cardiovascular physiology, affecting cardiac function and arterial properties for optimal organ perfusion. Considering that diabetes mellitus (DM) is a known risk factor for incident heart disease and vascular damage, this study aims to investigate whether changes in VAC due to DM occur earlier, even before the onset of clinically evident cardiovascular disease in the general population. Methods This retrospective study included 2,884 participants (mean age 57 years, 48% male) of the Swedish CArdioPulmonary BioImage Study (SCAPIS), where data on echocardiography and Pulse wave velocity (PWV) were available. Of these, 162 individuals (6%) had prevalent type 2 diabetes (DM), and 334 (12%) had prediabetes. VAC was quantified as the ratio of PWV to Global longitudinal strain (GLS). Linear regression models were used to assess associations between glycemic status (DM, prediabetes), HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose (fP-glucose), and VAC, adjusting for relevant covariates. Results I the fully adjusted model, prevalent DM and the combination of DM and prediabetes were significantly associated with increased values of PWV/GLS (Beta = 0.28, p < 0.001 and Beta = 0.14, p < 0.001 respectively), while no significant association was found between prediabetes and PWV/GLS. Increasing values of HbA1c and fP-glucose were significantly associated with higher values of PWV/GLS (Beta = 0.01,p < 0.001 and Beta = 0.07,p < 0.001, respectively) signaling worse VAC. In participants without prevalent DM, higher HbA1c levels were linked to increased PWV/GLS in the age- and sex-adjusted model; however, this association was attenuated after further adjustment for additional confounders. Conversely, fP-glucose remained significantly associated with elevated PWV/GLS across all adjusted models. Conclusions This study demonstrates a significant association between DM and impaired VAC, as reflected by elevated PWV/GLS, while no such link was observed in prediabetes. The transition from prediabetes to DM appears critical for VAC deterioration. Additionally, higher HbA1c and fP-glucose levels, even in non-diabetic individuals, were associated with worsened VAC, highlighting the impact of glycemic control on vascular function.

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
