Longitudinal changes of Left and Right Ventricular architecture and function (A) and exercise capacity (B) of patients grouped with regard to insulin action impairment. Delta changes of selected variables of left ventricle (LV) and right ventricle (RV) architecture and function from baseline at 36 months (A). Whereas delta changes of LV parameters did not significantly differ between three groups, T2D patients displayed a more prominent progression of RV parameters. This phenomenon is paralleled by a more important impairment in cardiovascular performance, as testified by the delta change of peak VO2 from baseline (B)
