Abstract
BACKGROUND: Color Doppler flow imaging can exam the early myocardial
disorder in type 2 diabetic patients. What does exercise tolerance test work
for the examination of such disorder in combination with color Doppler flow
imaging (CDFI) ?
OBJECTIVE: To analyze in comparison the early evaluation on reduced
diastolic function in left ventricle in patients with type 2 diabetes between the
examinations of exercise tolerance test combined with color Doppler flow
image and simple color Doppler flow imaging.
DESIGN: Cases-controlled comparison and self-comparison.
SETTING: Department of electrodiagnosis and department of Endocrinology
in a municipal hospital.
PARTICIPANTS: Thirty-six cases of inpatients with type 2 diabetes were
selected from Department of Endocrinology of Shenyang Red Cross Hospital
from March to December in 2004, of which, 25 cases were males and 11
cases females. The diabetic patients included had no cardiac vascular com-
plications and participated in the study in volunteer. Thirty-two patients who
received annual routine health check at the same period were selected as the
control, of which, 20 cases were males and 12 cases females.
METHODS: Metronics treadmill exercise test equipment was used for exer-
cise tolerance in two groups. Before exercise (at quiescent state) and after
exercise tolerance, Vivid 4 CDFI was used to determine flow velocity at E and
A peak values respectively, ratio between flow velocities at E peak value and
A peak value as well as isovolumtric relaxation time (IRT).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Comparison of cardiac functional indexes
before and after exercise tolerance in two groups
RESULTS: Thirty-four diabetic patients accomplished exercise tolerance
test, of which, 1 case presented frequent ventricular extrasystole, another one
presented precordial pain and stopped the test. In the control, all of 32 cases
accomplished the test.①Before the exercise, in experimental group, the
ratio between flow rates of E peak value and A peak value was remarkably
lower than that in the control (0. 90士0.25, 1.40土0. 30, P<0.05); IRT
was remarkably longer than that in the control [ (112. 07士20.16),
(98.4518.55) ms, P<0.051.②After the exercise tolerance, in exper-
imental group, the ratio between flow rates of E peak value and A peak value
was remarkably lower than that in the control (0. 62土0. 12,1.28士0. 87, P
<0.01);IRT was remarkably longer than that in the control [(138. 10
士19. 21), (97. 37土9. 61) ms, P<0.011.
CONCLUSION: CDFI can supervise and evaluate at early stage the cardiac
functional changes in type 2 diabetic patients. Due to the induction

INTRODUCTION
The exercise tolerance test was used together with color Doppler flow
imaging (CDFI) to determine diastolic function of left ventricle in
type 2 diabetic patients so as to discover the cardiac functional al-
ternations at early stage.
Department of Endocrinology of Shenyang Red Cross Hospital from
March to December in 2004, of which, 25 cases were males and 11
cases females; aged varied from 30 to 59 years, at average of (46
士8) years. Inclusion criteria: to comply with Diabetes Diagnostic
Standards of 97' American Diagnostic Association and get rid of
various complications of cardiac disease and hypertension. Exclusion
criteria: hypertension, pressure>140/90 mm Hg(1 mm Hg
=0. 133 kPa); abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG), shifting-down ST
〕0. 05 mV, auricular fibrillation, atrioventricular block and ar-
rhythmia; Cardiac disorders, like congenital cardiac disease, coronary
heart disease, valvulopathy and myocardial disease; renal dysfunc-
tion; cerebral vascular accidents; arterial disorder in lower limbs;
joint disorders of lower limbs; pulmonary dysfunction; lumbar disor-
der, etc. Thirty-two patients who received annual routine health check
at the same period were selected as the control, of which, 20 cases
were males and 12 cases females, aged varied for 32 to 58 years, at
average of(47土7) years.
Methods
Exercise tolerance was administrated in both groups. The concrete
method of exercise tolerance: Metronics treadmill exercise test e-
quipment was used. In the experiment, 10 stages were designed. 0
stage is quiescent state. In 2 to 7 stages, exercise speed and treadmill
slope were increased gradually, meaning that the exercise started
from low speed and tolerance amount and increased gradually. Eight
to 10 stages represented recovery state. During exercise, blood pres-
sure, heart rate and responses of acceptors were monitored and ECG
was recorded before the exercise of every stage. The terminal stan-
dards of exercise tolerance:①To reach target heart rate I according to
predicted age( 190一age), 85% of the maximum heart rate].②
Pressure change. The basic pressure was increased or decreased by
20 mm Hg.③ECG. ST segment was raised。:shifted down by
0. 1 mv.④To present typical angina pectoris.⑤To present severe
arrhythmia.⑥To present symptoms in central neural system, such
as motor disturbance, dizziness.⑦To present inadaptability0'.
Vivid 4 CDFI diagnostic apparatus was used, with 1. 5 to 3. 6 MHz of
prober. The patient was in left recumbence. The tetro-cavity sections
of cardiac apex were collected. The sample capacity was placed in
mitral orifice on the left ventricular side. The angle formed between
sound velocity and blood flowing direction of mitral valve was near to
00. The frequent spectrum of blood flow at diastolic户ase in mitral
orifice was recorded. The measured indexes included flow velocity of
E peak value (E), flow velocity of A peak value (A) , ratio between
flow velocities at E peak value and at A peak value(E/A) and
isovolumtric relaxation time (IRT). The measured result of each index
was the average of continuous 3 cardiac periods. The cardiac func-
tional indexes were measured before exercise(at quiescent state) and
right after the end of exercise tolerance. Statistical analysis: Data
were managed statistically with SPSS 11.0 software by the first
writer. The data were expressed with Mean士SD and t test was used
for grouped difference.

exercise tolerance test. Two of them broke off the test, one was due
to frequent attack of ventricular extrasystole and the other one was
due to precordial pain. The rate of accomplishment was 94% (34/
36), of which, 4 cases presented chest oppression, 2 cases occasional
ventricular extrasystole and 2 cases occasional atrial extrasystole. In
the control group, the rate of accomplishment was 100%,of which, 1
cases presented chest oppression, 1 cases occasional ventricular ex-
trasystole and 1 cases occasional atrial extrasystole. The
above-mentioned symptoms disappeared when the test ended. In ex-
perimental group, 21 cases reached target heart rate at the 5" stage
and 13 cases at the 6`h stage. In the control group, 8 cases reached
target heart rate at the 5" stage, 22 cases at the 6th stage and 2 cases
at the 7`" stage

crovascular disorder is complicated in mechanism. The basic etiology
of it is chronic high blood glucose due to absolute and relative insulin
deficiency. It is viewed generally that diabetic microvascular disorder
results from the integrative factors151.The cases in this paper had
been firmly diagnosed as type 2 diabetes, without cardiac disease and
hypertension and had received exercise tolerance test. In the exer-
cise, the heart rate was increased by the increased exercise
amount. It is indicated that the increased heart rate presents linear
correlation with cardiac intolerance and oxygen consumption
amount, and the increased exercise tolerance prolongs the stable
duration of heart rate.

DISCUSSION
Before occurrence of coronary arterial disorder, persistent metabolic
disturbance of high blood glucose, by various approaches, leads to
myocardial fibrosis, cardiac microvascular disorders and cardiac
vegetative disorders. It has been further verified that such disorder
may present early cardiac functional abnormity without clinical car-
diac symptoms, which manifested at the early stage as declined di-
astolic function of left ventricle 12, 31.Exercise tolerance increases
cardiac tolerance, which results in strengthened myocardial contrac-
tion, accelerated heart rate and increased oxygen consumption. Since
cardiac relaxation is an active process in which a large amount of
ATP is consumed. For diabetic patients, due to the metabolic dis-
turbance, it is impossible for myocardium to utilize adequately free
lipid acid. As a result, more triglycerides deposited, leading to de-
generated stiffness and fibrosis of myocardium and decreased com-
pliance. In addition, exercise tolerance test consumes even more en-
ergies, which more sensitively reflexes the alternations of ventricular
diastolic function in diabetic patients [41.It was indicated in the re-
sults of this study that before exercise tolerance test, in diabetic pa-
tients, the diastolic function of left ventricle was altered, the early
diastolic filling speed in left ventricle slowed down, later diastolic
compensatory contraction in left ventricle was strengthened, early
diastolic rapid filling speed slowed down, early diastolic blood flow
integral was reduced and later diastolic one was increased, E/A was
decreased and less than 1, and IRT was prolonged. Since exercise
tolerance consumes more energy, the diastolic functional indexes of
left ventricle were decreased more significantly, which indicated
significant difference in comparison with the control. Diabetes results
in cardiac microvasicular disorder, extensive cardiac necrosis and
decreased cardiac function. Terminally, it leads to diabetic myocar-
dial disorder and induces cardiac failure. Therefore, it is importance
to discover early the potential myocardial disorders in diabetic pa-
tients to prevent from cardiac vascular complications. Diabetic mi-
