Combination of Composite Autonomic Symptom Score 31 and Heart Rate Variability for Diagnosis of Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy in People with Type 2 Diabetes.

ABSTRACT: Objective:Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is a common but severe problem of diabetes, which a timely diagnosis may have important clinical implications. This study was carried out to investigate the diagnostic performance of Composite Autonomic Symptom Score 31 (COMPASS 31) combined with heart rate variability (HRV) for cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy in type 2 diabetes. Methods:A total of 103 hospitalized subjects with type 2 diabetes were recruited in the study. All cases received clinical data collection, laboratory examination, and related complication examinations. Cardiovascular autonomic function was assessed using CARTs, COMPASS 31, and HRV analyses. A score of at least 2 based on CARTs was defined as CAN. Results:Of the 103 subjects with type 2 diabetes, 41.8% were diagnosed with confirmed CAN. Participants with CAN had considerably higher COMPASS 31 scores. The CAN group showed a significant decrease in all HRV indices. COMPASS 31 scores and HRV indices were closely correlated with CARTs (P < 0.05). Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve results showed that COMPASS 31 score identified CAN with an AUC value of 0.816, while the AUC values of HRV indices were 0.648 to 0.919, among which SDNN and LF had the best diagnostic value, with the AUC values of 0.919 and 0.865, respectively. When combining COMPASS 31 score with SDNN and LF, the AUC value increased to 0.958, with a sensitivity of 90.7% and a specificity of 86.7%. Conclusions:The combination of COMPASS 31 and HRV could improve the diagnostic performance of CAN in type 2 diabetes, which might be conducive to the diagnosis of CAN.

Project description:BackgroundDysautonomic symptoms (DS) are frequent but often underrecognized in multiple sclerosis (MS) patients, despite the relevant impact on quality of life and physical performance.ObjectivesTo assess frequency and characteristics of DS in our MS population compared with healthy controls (HC). To investigate the relationship between DS and disease characteristics (MS subtype, disease duration, Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS), clinical and/or radiological activity, disability progression).Patients and methodsCross-sectional study includes 324 MS patients (mean age 44.9 ± 10.7 years; 66% female) and 190 HC (mean age 40.60 ± 12.83 years; 63% female). DS were assessed using the Italian validated version of the Composite Autonomic Symptom Score-31 (COMPASS-31). Possible confounding factors were considered.ResultsMore than 94% of enrolled MS patients reported alterations in ≥ 2 domains of the COMPASS-31 scale (score > 0) and significantly higher COMPASS-31 total and single domain median scores compared with HC, independently from possible confounding factors (orthostatic intolerance: p = 0.001; vasomotor: p = 0.017; secretomotor: p = 0.040; gastrointestinal: p = 0.047; bladder: p < 0.001; pupillomotor: p < 0.001; COMPASS-31 total score: p < 0.001). COMPASS-31 total, secretomotor, gastrointestinal, and bladder domain scores showed weak to moderate correlation with disease duration (Rho = 0.19, p < 0.001; Rho = 0.18, p = 0.01; Rho = 0.25, p = 0.030; Rho = 0.28, p < 0.001, respectively). A moderate correlation between EDSS score, COMPASS-31 total, and bladder domain scores (Rho = 0.32, p < 0.001 and Rho = 0.48, p < 0.001, respectively) was observed. Progressive subtypes showed higher COMPASS-31 total (p = 0.025), gastrointestinal (p = 0.07), and bladder (p < 0.001) domain scores vs relapsing-remitting patients.ConclusionsOur findings confirm that MS-related DS are frequent and tend to increase paralleling disease duration and clinical worsening, reaching the highest clinical impact in progressive subtypes.

Project description:BackgroundFabry patients have symptoms and signs compatible with autonomic dysfunction. These symptoms and signs are considered to be due to impairment of the peripheral nervous system, but findings indicative of autonomic neuropathy in other diseases, such as orthostatic intolerance and male sexual dysfunction, are infrequently reported in Fabry disease. The aim of our study was to investigate autonomic symptoms and cardiovascular autonomic function in a large cohort of male and female Fabry patients.MethodsForty-eight Fabry patients (15 male, 30 treated with enzyme replacement therapy) and 48 sex- and age-matched controls completed a questionnaire on autonomic symptoms (the Autonomic Symptom Profile). Thirty-six Fabry patients underwent cardiovascular function tests.ResultsThe Autonomic Symptom Profile revealed a significantly higher sum score in Fabry patients than in healthy control subjects (22 versus 12), but a relatively low score compared to patients with proven autonomic neuropathy. Fabry patients scored worse than healthy controls in the orthostatic intolerance domain. Scores in the male sexual dysfunction domain were comparable between healthy controls and male Fabry patients. The cardiovascular autonomic function tests revealed only mild abnormalities in seven patients. None of these seven patients showed more than one abnormal test result. Enzyme replacement therapy was not associated with less severe disease, lower ASP scores or less frequent abnormal cardiovascular function test results.ConclusionsMale sexual function and autonomic control of the cardiovascular system are nearly normal in Fabry patients, which cast doubt on the general accepted assumption that autonomic neuropathy is the main cause of symptoms and signs compatible with autonomic dysfunction in Fabry disease. Possibly, end-organ damage plays a key role in the development of symptoms and signs in Fabry patients. An exceptional kind of autonomic neuropathy is another but less likely explanation.
