Abnormal aortic elasticity serves as a marker for cardiovascular mortality and has a negative impact on the left ventricular (LV) afterload. Noncompaction cardiomyopathy (NCCM) is characterized by hypertrabeculation of the LV endomyocardial wall, with an underdeveloped endocardial helix. This may result in absence of LV twist, disturbed aortic elasticity, LV dysfunction, and ultimately premature heart failure (HF). This study compared the aortic stiffness and clinical outcome in patients with NCCM to that of a control group with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Sixty NCCM patients, matched by age and sex, were compared with 60 DCM controls. Transthoracic echocardiography was performed to measure the systolic (SD) and diastolic diameters (DD) of the ascending aorta. These measurements, along with systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP), were utilized to calculate the aortic stiffness index defined as ln(SBP/DBP)/[(SD-DD)/DD]. This index was then compared to clinical features and outcome. The mean age was 49 ± 16 years (55% males) in the NCCM group and 49 ± 16 years (55% male) in the DCM group. Aortic stiffness index (ASI) was significantly higher in the NCCM group than in the DCM group (7.0 [5.8–10.2] vs. 6.2 [4.8–7.7], p = 0.011). This difference remained statistically significant after adjustment for established risk factors associated with aortic stiffness (β = 1.771; 95% CI [0.253–3.289], p = 0.023). Patients with NCCM demonstrated increased aortic stiffness when compared to those with DCM, which may reflect the underlying pathophysiological processes. Additional research is necessary to evaluate the impact of aortic stiffness on the advancement of LV dysfunction, the onset of heart failure, and long-term outcomes.
