Does oxidative stress modulate left ventricular diastolic function in asymptomatic subjects with hereditary hemochromatosis?

BACKGROUND: Little is known about the early mechanisms mediating left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction in patients with hereditary hemochromatosis (HH). However, the increased oxidative stress related to iron overload may be involved in this process, and strain rate (SR), a sensitive echocardi...
