Ambulatory blood pressure recording in diabetic patients with abnormal responses to cardiovascular autonomic function tests

Abstract: The aim of our study was to analyse the 24-h periodic pattern of blood pressure (BP) in diabetic patients with abnormal responses to cardiovascular reflexes, in order to evaluate the extent of the initial autonomic damage. We studied 44 patients with diabetes mellitus (14 insulin-dependent, 30 non-insulin-dependent; mean duration of disease 6.5 +/- 1.8 years) in good metabolic control (fasting glycaemia less than 140 mg/dl, postprandial glycaemia less than 180 mg/dl, fructosamine less than 285 mg/dl), divided … Show more

“…In addition to elevated BP 29,[42][43][44] with an attenuated circadian rhythm, 30,45 vagal function is impaired with an abnormal sympathovagal interaction, 46,47 the lipid profile is more atherogenic, 48,49 there are features of endothelial dysfunction, [50][51][52] and retinopathy is more prevalent. [81][82][83] Records with more than two missing night or day readings were excluded. 54 In addition, ultrastructural findings 55,56 indicate the presence of glomerular and arteriolar abnormalities in Type 1 diabetic patients with incipient nephropathy.…”
