Preliminary studies showed improvement in left ventricular (LV) function during glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist administration. Underlying mechanisms, however, are unclear. The purpose of this study was to investigate myocardial perfusion and oxidative metabolism in type 2 diabetic (T2DM) patients with LV systolic dysfunction as compared to healthy controls. Furthermore, effects of 26-weeks of exenatide versus insulin glargine administration on cardiac function, perfusion and oxidative metabolism in T2DM patients with LV dysfunction were explored %K Diabetes mellitus type 2 %K Exenatide %K Cardiac function %K Myocardial perfusion %K Myocardial oxidative metabolism %U https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5438489/
