Excerpt

The following editorial was focused on the most relevant points of the article by Malik et al.:1 firstly, normal cut-off values of phase analysis parameters and different variables that influence in the ventricular synchrony analysis; secondly, the impact of the duration of type II diabetes mellitus on left ventricular mechanical synchrony analysis; thirdly, the repercussions on the cardiac function of the diseases associated with diabetes mellitus (DM), and its complications; and fourthly, a normal gated SPECT definition. …
