In patients with type 2 diabetes, correlation between LV diastolic dysfunction and HbA1c was interactively affected by BMI. Glycemic control is beneficial to the heart function in normal body weight patients. For overweight/obese patients, the risk of LV diastolic dysfunction was not determined by the HbA1c level, indicating it may be affected by other confounding factors.
