Nonlinear PD2i heart rate complexity algorithm detects autonomic neuropathy in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Objective: The aim of this study was to test whether a new heart rate variability (HRV) complexity measure, the Point Correlation Dimension (PD2i), provides diagnostic information regarding early subclinical autonomic dysfunction in diabetes mellitus (DM). We tested the ability of PD2i to detect diabetic autonomic neuropathy (DAN) in asymptomatic young DM patients without overt neuropathy and compared them to age- and gender-matched controls.

Methods: HRV in DM type 1 patients (n=17, 10 female, 7 male) aged 12.

Cardio-respiratory interaction and autonomic dysfunction in obesity.

We aimed to test whether the evaluation of the cardio-respiratory interaction using the analysis of heart rate and blood pressure variabilities and respiratory maneuvers can reveal cardiovagal dysfunction in obese adolescents 12-18 years old. The spectral power in high frequency band of the heart rate variability (HRV) reflecting respiratory sinus arrhythmia was used as an index of the cardiac vagal control, and the spectral power in high frequency band of the blood pressure variability (BPV) as an indicator of mechanical effects of respiration. The deep breathing test and Valsalva maneuver were applied.

Reduced short-term complexity of heart rate and blood pressure dynamics in patients with diabetes mellitus type 1: multiscale entropy analysis.

Multiscale entropy (MSE) analysis provides information about complexity on various time scales. The aim of this study was to test whether MSE is able to detect autonomic dysregulation in young patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). We analyzed heart rate (HR) oscillations, systolic (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) signals in 14 patients with DM type 1 and 14 age- and sex-matched healthy controls.

Recurrences in heart rate dynamics are changed in patients with diabetes mellitus.

Detection of subclinical autonomic dysfunction in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is of vital importance for risk stratification and subsequent management. Heart rate variability (HRV) analysis is a sensitive tool for assessment of cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction. As the heart is controlled by non-linear deterministic system, the non-linear dynamics measures should be preferred.

Short-term heart rate complexity is reduced in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Objective: The aim of this study was to test whether new heart rate variability (HRV) complexity measures provide diagnostic information regarding early subclinical autonomic dysfunction in diabetes mellitus (DM).

Methods: HRV in DM type 1 patients (n=17, 10f, 7m) aged 12.9-31.

Prevalence of permanent neonatal diabetes in Slovakia and successful replacement of insulin with sulfonylurea therapy in KCNJ11 and ABCC8 mutation carriers.

Context: Mutations in the KCNJ11 and ABCC8 genes encoding the pancreatic beta-cell K(ATP) channel have recently been shown to be the most common cause of permanent neonatal diabetes mellitus (PNDM). Information regarding the frequency of PNDM has been based mainly on nonpopulation or short-term collections only. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify the incidence of PNDM in Slovakia and to switch patients to sulfonylurea (SU) where applicable.

Parasympathetic versus sympathetic control of the cardiovascular system in young patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Autonomic neuropathy and cardiovascular dysregulation are common complications of the diabetes mellitus (DM). The aim of the study was to test the hypothesis that cardiovascular regulation is abnormal in young patients with type 1 DM. Patients with type 1 DM (17, 10 females, 7 males) aged 12.

Heart rate variability in young patients with diabetes mellitus and healthy subjects explored by Poincaré and sequence plots.

Autonomic neuropathy is a common complication of the diabetes mellitus (DM). The significance of its early diagnosis is very high because the mortality of the patients with this complication is elevated. Considering the effort to apply new mathematical methods to cardiac dysregulation diagnosis, the major aim of the study was to ascertain which of the new heart rate variability (HRV) parameters are different in young patients with DM type 1 compared with control group.

Heart rate variability and cardiovascular tests in young patients with diabetes mellitus type 1.

The aim of this study was to obtain information about parameters of heart rate variability (HRV) in three frequency bands (high frequency - HF, low frequency - LF and very low frequency - VLF), the sensitivity of cardiovascular tests, and subjective feelings depending on autonomic nervous system balance in a group of young patients with diabetes mellitus type 1 (IDDM). Sixty-four subjects were examined: 32 patients with diabetes with a mean age of 16.1 +/- 0.

Heart rate and its variability in juvenile hypertonics during respiratory maneuvers.

In 27 children (14 juvenile hypertonics and 13 healthy control children, with the mean age 14.7 +/- 0.4 y.
