Effects of catecholamine stress on diastolic function and myocardial energetics in obesity.
BACKGROUND: Obesity is characterized by impaired cardiac energetics, which may play a role in the development of diastolic dysfunction and inappropriate shortness of breath. We assessed whether, in obesity, derangement of energetics and diastolic function is further altered during acute cardiac stre...
