Cardiac myopathy manifesting as arrhythmias is common in the neurological disease, myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). The purpose of the present study was to evaluate heart rate variability (HRV) in patients with DM1.
In a multicenter study, history, ECG, and genetic testing were performed in DM1 patients.
In 289 patients in whom the diagnosis of DM1 was confirmed by a prolonged cytosine-thymine-guanine (CTG) repeat length the most common ambulatory ECG abnormality was frequent ventricular ectopy (16.3%). The 24-hour time domain parameters of SDNN (SD of the NN interval) and SDANN (SD of the mean NN, 5-minute interval) declined as age and CTG repeat length increased (SDNN: -8.5 ms per decade, 95% confidence intervals [CI]-12.9, -4.2, -8.7 ms per 500 CTG repeats, CI -15.7, -1.8, r=0.24, P<0.001; SDANN: -8.1 ms per decade, CI -12.4, -3.8, -8.8 ms per 500 CTG repeats, CI -15.7, -1.9, r=0.23, P<0.001). Short-term frequency domain parameters declined with age only (total power: -658 ms2 per decade, CI: -984, -331, r=0.23, P<0.001; low frequency (LF) power -287 ms2 per decade, CI: -397, -178, r=0.30, P<0.001; high frequency (HF) power: -267 ms2 per decade, CI: -386, -144, r=0.25, P<0.001). The LF/HF ratio increased as the patient aged (0.5 per decade, CI: 0.1, 0.9, r=0.13, P=0.03).
In DM1 patients a decline in HRV is observed as the patient ages and CTG repeat length increases.
在神经疾病1型强直性肌营养不良症(DM1)中,表现为心律失常的心肌病很常见。本研究的目的是评估DM1患者的心率变异性(HRV)。
在一项多中心研究中,对DM1患者进行了病史、心电图和基因检测。
在289例通过延长的胞嘧啶 - 胸腺嘧啶 - 鸟嘌呤(CTG)重复长度确诊为DM1的患者中,最常见的动态心电图异常是频发室性早搏(16.3%)。随着年龄和CTG重复长度增加,24小时时域参数正常NN间期标准差(SDNN)和平均NN间期标准差(SDANN,5分钟间隔)下降(SDNN:每十年 -8.5毫秒,95%置信区间[CI] -12.9, -4.2;每500个CTG重复 -8.7毫秒,CI -15.7, -1.8,r = 0.24,P < 0.001;SDANN:每十年 -8.1毫秒,CI -12.4, -3.8;每500个CTG重复 -8.8毫秒,CI -15.7, -1.9,r = 0.23,P < 0.001)。短期频域参数仅随年龄下降(总功率:每十年 -658毫秒²,CI: -984, -331,r = 0.23,P < 0.001;低频(LF)功率每十年 -287毫秒²,CI: -397, -178,r = 0.30,P < 0.001;高频(HF)功率:每十年 -267毫秒²,CI: -386, -144,r = 0.25,P < 0.001)。随着患者年龄增长,LF/HF比值增加(每十年0.5,CI:0.1,0.9,r = 0.13,P = 0.03)。
在DM1患者中,随着患者年龄增长和CTG重复长度增加,观察到HRV下降。
