Key result
Diabetes mellitus was associated with lower time-domain and frequency-domain heart rate variability parameters compared to healthy controls, with further reductions in those with chronic complications.
Why the study?
Does diabetes mellitus reduce heart rate variability compared to healthy controls?
Case-Control (n=61)
Does diabetes mellitus reduce heart rate variability compared to healthy controls?
Diabetes mellitus is associated with reduced heart rate variability, indicative of cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy, which is more pronounced in patients with chronic complications.

Diabetes-associated HRV reduction supports CAN evaluation; leaves open prospective validation for risk prediction.
Kudat et al. (2006) conducted a case-control in Diabetes mellitus (n=61). Diabetes mellitus vs. Healthy controls was evaluated on Heart rate variability (time-domain and frequency-domain parameters). Diabetes mellitus was associated with lower time-domain and frequency-domain heart rate variability parameters compared to healthy controls, with further reductions in those with chronic complications.
