Reduced heart rate variability predicts incident diabetic polyneuropathy

Notes a cohort study assessing whether autonomic dysfunction and reduced heart rate variability predict future distal symmetric polyneuropathy in people with diabetes.

Key takeaways

Study followed 194 diabetes patients without baseline DSPN longitudinally to assess incident neuropathy.
Reduced HRV indices at baseline predicted higher incidence of DSPN over about three years.
Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy defined by abnormal CARTs was associated with increased DSPN risk.
