Potential Correlation Between Heart Rate Variability With Cardiovascular Risk at Different Stages of Metabolic Syndrome: Impact of Some Antidiabetic Drugs

Overview

The study aims to assess the beat-to-beat Heart rate variability (HRV) in different stages of metabolic diseases, including pre-diabetic and diabetic patients, compared to non-diabetic individuals. Heart rate variability will be compared for some antidiabetic drugs used in different stages of metabolic diseases and correlated to different metabolic and inflammatory mediators.

Interventions

  • Diagnostic test heart rate variability test
    First, the patient is required to lie on their back to have a 5-minute continuous ECG recorded, without performing any maneuvers. Following this, deep breath test, Valsalva and stand test are performed.

Primary outcome measures

  • Beat-to-beat Heart rate variability [Time frame: one year]
  • body mass index [Time frame: one year]
  • Valsalva ratio [Time frame: one year]
  • Stand 30:15 ratio [Time frame: one year]
  • deep breath test interpretation [Time frame: one year]
Secondary outcome measures (1)
  • Framingham risk score (FRS) [Time frame: one year]

Eligibility criteria

Inclusion criteria

  • Non-diabetic individuals: adults (18-70 Years) with glycated hemoglobin (HBA1C)<5.7 and/or Fasting blood glucose <100 mg/L and with no classic symptoms of hyperglycemia
  • Pre-diabetic: adults (18-70 Years) who fulfil one of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria :
  • glycated hemoglobin (HBA1C) =5.7-6.4%
  • Fasting blood glucose level = 100 mg/dL to 125 mg/dL. Fasting is defined as no caloric intake for at least 8 hours.
  • Diabetic patients: adults (18-70 Years) who fulfil one of the American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria:
  • glycated hemoglobin (HBA1C) ≥6.5%
  • Fasting blood glucose ≥126 mg/dL.
  • A random plasma glucose ≥200 mg/dL. Random is any time of the day without regard to the meals.

Exclusion criteria

  • Pediatric and elderly subjects
  • Pregnant subjects
  • Those with active Myocardial infarction
  • Those with acute decompensated heart failure
  • Patients with pacemaker
  • Patients with persistent Atrial fibrillation, long-standing persistent and permanent Atrial fibrillation
