In our study on CABGS candidates, in the patients without diabetes, obesity, an increased maximal LA volume, calcium-channel blocker usage, and a decreased lateral e'/a' ratio and in the diabetic patients, diuretic usage and a decreased lateral e'/a' ratio independently determined increased LIAEMD. The prevention or treatment of factors that are detrimental to the LA electromechanical function may be helpful for the preservation of the LA electromechanical integrity.
