Abstract

Background: Adverse cardiac outcomes like morbidity and mortality are eventually associated with Type 1 or
Type 2 DM. The cardiovascular risk may eventually be increased with increased LVM. LVM is a lifethreatening prognostic sign because of developing ventricular arrhythmia, myocardial ischemia, CHD, and HF.
Aim: This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and risk factors for the development of LVH
in age-and gender-matched normotensive population with T2DM and comparison of LVH among diabetic and
non-diabetic normotensive patients
