Popis: Background: Left ventricular (LV) remodeling and diastolic properties are affected by both underlying cardiovascular disease/cardiovascular disease risk factors (CVDRFs) and corresponding medication therapy. However, these effects may not be apparent in patients with multiple CVDRFs. We evaluated the effect of medication classes on hemodynamics in a patient cohort with normal LV dimensions and systolic function. Methods: In 38 participants (61 ± 7 years, 64 ± 9% LV ejection fraction) undergoing coronary angiography, LV pressure measurement and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging was performed. The effects of coronary artery disease (CAD), CVDRFs and their corresponding medication therapy on LV parameters were analyzed considering the number of CAD/CVDRFs and ‘adequacy’ of medication therapy to address each existing condition with specific indication-based medication classes. Results: Of the patients studied, 68% had CAD, 87% had hypertension, 87% had dyslipidemia, and 45% had diabetes. Neither individual or total number of CAD/CVDRFs were associated with overall differences in LV diastolic parameters. However, those without (n = 20) and with (n = 18) ‘adequate’ medication therapy for underlying CAD/CVDRFs differed in values of LV end diastolic pressure (17 ± 4 vs. 11 ± 5 mm Hg, P
