Abstract

Heart rate deceleration capacity and acceleration capacity are novel autonomic nervous system indicators of cardiac neural regulation. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) changes cardiac electrophysiology; however, how deceleration capacity and acceleration capacity associated with DCM remain unclear. To evaluate the association between heart rate acceleration capacity, deceleration capacity and DCM, 66 DCM patients with DCM and 209 controls were enrolled in the study. Demographic data, echocardiographic data, heart rate variability, deceleration capacity and acceleration capacity were collected. The association pattern between DCM and these indexes were studied by multiple logistic regression analysis. Deceleration capacity and acceleration capacity were independent risk factors for DCM with an odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI), determined by multiple logistic regression analysis, of 7·97 (3·87-16·42) and 0·09 (0·05-0·19), respectively. Univariate ordinal logistic regression analysis showed that acceleration capacity, fastest heart rate, standard deviation of normal-to-normal RR intervals (SDNN) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LEVF) associated with heart failure grade. The OR for each covariate was further adju...Continue Reading

Cardiomyopathy

Cardiomyopathy is a disease of the heart muscle, that can lead to muscular or electrical dysfunction of the heart. It is often an irreversible disease that is associated with a poor prognosis. There are different causes and classifications of cardiomyopathies. Here are the latest discoveries pertaining to this disease.

Cardiac Electrophysiology

Cardiac electrophysiology is the study of electrical activities of the heart and includes the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of cardiac events. Find the latest research on cardiac electrophysiology here.

Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
