Alterations in cardiac autonomic function, lipid profile, and arterial stiffness in type 1 diabetic children

Abstract: We investigated whether alterations in autonomic nervous system (ANS) activity were associated with metabolic. Ten type 1 diabetic children (11.8 ± 0.8 yr) and ten healthy children (10.7 ± very low-frequency (VLF) reflecting thermogenic sympathetic function; low-frequency (LF), an indicator of sympatho-vagal activity; high-frequency (HF) reflecting parasympathetic activity exclusively; and total power (TOTAL) representing overall ANS activity. All ANS activities including thermogenic sympathetic activity were … Show more

“…In non-diabetic children, glucose intolerance assessed during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) predicts adult premature death (Franks et al 2010 ). The metabolic effects of elevated blood glucose (GLU) concentration ([GLU]) following an OGTT have implications for the arterial and autonomic systems, as evidenced by decreased autonomic modulation and increased vascular stiffness in diabetic adolescents (Shin et al 2010 ), which may contribute to chronic BRS dysfunction in youth with diabetes (Honzikova and Zavodna 2016 ). However, a lowered BRS caused by a rise in [GLU] is not only observed in diseased populations.…”

“…Although growth and maturation are associated with an augmented BRS due to maturation of the autonomic component (Lenard et al 2004 ), the influence of a glucose load on the BRS and its associated mechanisms is unknown in youth. As glucose intolerance is associated with poor vascular and autonomic functions in diabetic youth (Shin et al 2010 ), it is plausible that elevated [GLU] may reduce BRS in healthy adolescents. A better understanding of the BRS physiology under different challenges, such as during an OGTT, can help inform strategies to target cardiovascular disease risk reduction in paediatric groups.…”
