Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 2
Abstract
Background: Type 2 Diabetes mellitus is the most common metabolic and endocrine disorder that is characterized by hyperglycemia (high blood sugar) in the context of insulin resistance and shortage of insulin. Obesity and lack of physical activity is thought to be the primary cause of type 2 diabetes and known to cause chronic complications particularly neuropathy, retinopathy, and nephropathy. One of the most over looked of all serious complications of diabetes is Cardiovascular Autonomic Neuropathy (CAN) which encompasses damage to the autonomic nerve fibers. Aim: The present study aims at assessing cardiovascular autonomic efficiency in diabetic people of urban region. Methods: cardiovascular autonomic activity was assessed with help of Ewing’s autonomic function test parameters. Age matched 50 non diabetic and 50 diabetic subjects were included in this study. Results: It was observed that heart rate response to deep breathing, immediate standing and Valsalva manouvre in diabetic groups showed significant difference when compared to control group. It also shows that blood pressure response to immediate standing and resting systolic blood pressure were significantly increased in diabetic groups. Conclusion: we found that diabetic people exhibit autonomic dysfunction
