Nitric oxide (NO), a potent vasodilator and anti-inflammatory mediator released from the subendocardial and coronary endothelium, favors left ventricular distensibility and relaxation. In type 2 diabetes (T2D), the NO bioavailability is reduced due to the oxidative stress and inflammatory state of the endothelium, because of chronic hyperglycemia. The aim of the present research is to evaluate the relationship between endothelial function and diastolic function in subjects with T2D.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Subjects with T2D and age and sex-matched healthy controls were consecutively recruited.

T2D presented different abnormalities in diastolic function compared to controls: lower E\/A (early to late diastolic transmitral flow velocity), lower septal and lateral e\u2032 (early diastolic myocardial tissue velocity at septum and lateral wall), and higher E\/e\u2032 (surrogate of filling pressure).
