| Objective The aim of this study was to determine autonomic nerve system (ANS) functions by using clinical and electrophysiological tests of ANS in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. We also examined relations between the disease activity and indicators of autonomic activity. Material and Methods Twenty-five RA patients and 25 healthy control subjects were recruited to the study. Data about demographic characteristics of the subjects and disease characteristics of the RA patients were determined. A detailed neurological examination was performed in all subjects and the clinical autonomic symptoms were recorded. Clinical and electrophysiological assessments of ANS were performed in all subjects. Clinical measurements including the heart rate variation with deep breathing (HRV), heart rate response to standing (HRS) were used to assess the parasympathetic functions. The systolic blood pressure response to … |
