Autonomic Neural Dysfunction in Recently Diagnosed Diabetic Subjects
Abstract
Because onset of autonomic neural dysfunction in the diabetic syndrome has not been well established, sensitive and quantitative measures of autonomic nervous system (ANS) function were made in 19 non-insulin-dependent (NIDD) and 14 insulin-dependent (IDD) recent-onset diabetic subjects. The known duration of diabetes mellitus in the NIDD subjects was ≤ 12 mo. The duration in the IDD subjects was ≤ 24 mo. RR-variation during beta adrenergic blockade (an index of an ANS reflex involving the cardiac parasympathetic nervous system [PNS] pathway) was smaller than that of control subjects in both NIDD (P < 0.001) and IDD subjects (P < 0.01). This PNS abnormality was not likely to be due to volume depletion since acute volume depletion induced by furosemide in six normal subjects (1608 ± 105 ml, mean ± SEM) did not change RR-variation. Dark-adapted pupil size after topical PNS blockade (an index of iris sympathetic nervous system [SNS] activity) was also smaller in both groups of diabetic subjects (NIDD, P < 0.01; IDD, P < 0.05). Pupillary latency time (an index of an ANS reflex involving iris PNS pathway) was prolonged in the NIDD subjects (P < 0.005) but was not significantly altered in the IDD subjects. Thus, it would appear that the ANS is impaired soon after the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus. We hypothesize that early impairment of the ANS is common in IDD and NIDD subjects. This finding is consistent with the hypothesis that abnormal carbohydrate metabolism is an important factor in the etiology of diabetic autonomic neuropathy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
