Cardiac autonomic neuropathy is not a rare complication of diabetes. In a selected diabetic population, the prevalence of this complication indicated by abnormal response in beat-to-beat variation during forced respiration was 26%. Patients with cardiac autonomic neuropathy had a two- to threefold higher frequency of diabetic retinopathy. The mortality rate during a 5 year period was increased in diabetics with cardiac autonomic neuropathy.
心脏自主神经病变并非糖尿病罕见的并发症。在特定的糖尿病患者群体中，通过强制呼吸期间逐搏变化的异常反应所表明的这种并发症的患病率为26%。患有心脏自主神经病变的患者患糖尿病视网膜病变的频率高出两到三倍。患有心脏自主神经病变的糖尿病患者在5年期间的死亡率有所增加。
