Summary of cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in asymptomatic individuals. DM or impaired insulin resistance are associated with adverse LV concentric remodeling, less spherical shape, and impaired systolic myocardial shortening in the general population. Torsion, however, is higher in participants who are treated for DM and impaired insulin resistance
