title: [Behavior of contractile and functional cardiac parameters of patients in the early stage of type I diabetes mellitus].
abstract: The echocardiographically obtained data for contractility and function of the heart showed that patients with type I diabetes mellitus known up to 1 year at the age of 29 +/- 7 years showed more unfavourable parameters concerning the contraction fraction of the two chambers and the ejection fraction of the left ventricle and had also a larger diastolic diameter of the posterior wall, those patients were compared with persons with healthy metabolism aged 43 +/- 2 years. Since the two groups did not show any evidences as to cardiovascular diseases, the echocardiographic results might be explained as early symptoms of a diabetic cardiopathy.
