Associations of age-adjusted coefficient of variation of R-R intervals with autonomic and peripheral nerve function in non-elderly persons with diabetes.

ABSTRACT:

Aims/introduction

Early diagnosis of diabetes-associated cardiac autonomic neuropathy using the coefficient of variation of R-R intervals (CVRR) may improve outcomes for individuals with diabetes. The present study examined the associations of decreased CVRR at rest and during deep breathing (DB) with other autonomic nerve function parameters.

Materials and methods

The electronic records of 141 inpatients with diabetes (22-65 years) admitted to our hospital between March 2015 and March 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. After assessment by exclusion criteria, 51 inpatients were included. All inpatients were assessed for peripheral and autonomic nerve function, clinical characteristics, and physical abilities.

Results

Inpatients with decreased CVRR at rest (n = 9 (17.
