Left ventricular function (LVF) was studied in 25 obese patients (four males and 21 females) by serial poligraphic measurements, namely systolic time intervals (STI), during a short period of dieting (2721 kJ/day (650 kcal/day) as single daily meal regimen). In the same period, all the patients underwent also three standardized exercise tests at the cycloergometer. At the end of the study (20th day), statistically significant differences were obtained in weight loss (P less than 0.001); two main parameters of STI, namely pre-ejection period index (PEPI) and PEP/LVET ratio were lowered (P less than 0.001): furthermore, peak and recovery systolic blood pressure (SBP) and heart rate (HR) during exercising, were also significantly reduced. These data suggest that an improvement of LVF and cardiac performance are present since the early phases of caloric restriction in obesity.
