Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| We analyze difference in myocardial blood flow (MBF) at rest and stress, and myocardial flow reserve (MFR) as determined by ammonia-13 PET, cardiac function and size of LGE as determined by cardiac MRI between patients with DMCM and diabetes control. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| We analyze relationship between coronary calcification and MBF and MFR. In diabetes controls, we compare the MBF and MFR with clinical characteristics such as HbA1c, fasting glucose, plasma cholesterol and diabetic history. | — |
