Background: Recent studies have shown that triglyceride (TG), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) are related to the prevalence of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN). However, little is known about the association of lipid profile with diabetic cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (DCAN), or its severity in the Chinese population. The purpose of this study is to explore the extent of this phenomenon using a Chinese sample.
Methods: A subgroup analysis on 455 diabetic patients with undiagnosed DCAN was performed to evaluate the relationships of lipids profile and DCAN. DCAN was diagnosed if there were at least two abnormal cardiovascular autonomic reflex test results, based on short-term heart rate variability tests. Multivariable logistic regression (MLR)was carried out to control potential confounders for determining the independent association of variables with DCAN in different models.
Results: MLR analysis indicated that TG was significantly and independently associated with DCAN when controlling for confounding factors (P < 0.1 for two models). Additionally, TG combined with TC (LRS-1) and LDL (LRS-2) was associated with this outcome (P < 0.1 for LRS-1 and LRS-2).
Conclusion: Our findings indicate that TG and the severity of lipids profile is significantly and independently associated with DCAN, respectively.

Dysregulation of hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis) and of the autonomic nervous system may link stress throughout the life course with poorer health. This study aims to investigate whether multiple adverse childhood experiences have a long-term impact on markers of these systems - cortisol secretion and heart rate variability - in adulthood. Data were from the Whitehall II cohort study.

Background: Calcium-mediated autonomic denervation has been shown to suppress postoperative atrial fibrillation (POAF) after coronary artery bypass grafting.
Objectives: This study sought to evaluate whether similar autonomic denervation can prevent POAF after mitral or aortic valve surgeries.
Methods: This research consisted of 2 single-center, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trials: CAP-AF2 (Calcium Autonomic Denervation Prevents Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Undergoing Isolated Mitral Valve Surgery for Mitral Regurgitation) for mitral valve (MV) surgery and CAP-AF3 (Calcium Autonomic Denervation Prevents Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation in Patients Undergoing Isolated Aortic Valve Surgery) for aortic valve surgery.

This review emphasises the importance of the cardiovascular response to facial cooling (FC) and breath holding in both sexes. The trigemino-cardiac reflex, triggered by FC, reduces heart rate (HR) and constricts blood vessels. When combined with breath holding, this effect intensifies, enhancing the cardiodepressive impact.

Objectives: The objective of this study is to determine if the detection of DAN through Sudoscan can reclassify cardiovascular risk in patients with T2DM according to the European Society of Cardiology guidelines 2023 (ESC 2023) compared to other risk scales.
Methods: A retrospective cross-sectional analytical study was conducted on 161 patients with T2DM who had undergone Sudoscan in a Northern Mexico Hospital between December 2022 and July 2023. We compared the cardiovascular risk with SCORE-2, SMART, ADVANCE, ASCVD plus, and Globo Risk scales.

Introduction: As a prevalent and severe complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) has garnered increasing attention. Reports suggested that CAN may be related to the disease activity of SLE. This study aims to explore whether Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity Index (SLEDAI) is associated with CAN and to evaluate its diagnostic value for CAN.
