Aim. To assess the influence of diabetic autonomous neuropathy (DAN) on left ventricular myocardial remodeling in type 1 diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods. The study included 78 patients (30 men and 48 women) with DM1 (mean age 28.9?8.3 years, DM1 duration9.7?7.5 years). DAN was diagnosed by standard ECG tests (Valsalva and breathing tests). The patients were examined using echocardiographywith the measurement of the thickness of interventricular septum (IVS) and left ventricle posterior wall (PW), end diastolic and systolic size (EDS and ESS) of the left ventricle, left ventricular myocardial mass (MM), MM index and relative wall thickness (RWT). LV hypertrophy(LVH) was diagnosed at MM index ?134 g/m2 in men and ?110 g/m2 in women; concentric and excentric types of LV hypertrophy wererecorded at RWT ?0.45 and
