Objectives The purpose of this study was to assess the independent effect of increased body size on left ventricular (LV) diastolic function.Background Obese and overweight persons are at increased risk of heart failure. Left ventricular diastolic dysfunction is an asymptomatic condition associated with future heart failure. It is unclear whether obesity and overweight are independently associated with LV diastolic dysfunction.Methods The LV diastolic function was evaluated in 950 participants from the CABL (Cardiovascular Abnormalities and Brain Lesions) study by traditional and tissue Doppler imaging. Peak early transmitral diastolic flow velocity (E), late transmitral diastolic flow velocity (A), and early diastolic mitral annulus velocity (E') were measured, and E/A and E/E' were calculated. The study sample was divided into 3 groups: normal weight (body mass index [BMI] = 30 kg/m(2)).Results In multivariate analyses, BMI was independently associated with higher E, A, and E/E', an indicator of LV filling pressure (all p
