Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between primary TCM syndromes and heart rate variability in hypertension, evaluate the development of disease. Methods 182 hypertension patients were recruited in accordance with the standard of hypertension. According to the Chinese medicine dialectical criteria, these patients were further divided into 5 groups, namely, hyperactivity of liver-fire group, phlegm-dampness retention group, blood stasis group, hyperactivity of Yang due to yin deficiency group and Qi and blood deficiency group. Another 60 healthy people were recruited as a control group. 24h Holter was adopted to monitor heart rate variability. Results Analysis of TCM syndromes and heart rate variability, anger on inflammation group had positive relation with SDNN, RMSSD, LF, HF and TP(r were respectively 0.161,0.372, 0.223, 0.281, 0.301);Phlegmy wet resistance groups had positive relation with SDNN, HRV triangular index, VLF, LF, VLF/HF, LF/HF, LFnorm.(r were respectively 0.175, 0.211, 0.174, 0.262, 0.159, 0.264, 0.263);blood stasis group had negative relation with LF/HF, LFnorm(r were respectively-0.185、-0.018).Yang due to yin deficiency group had negative relation with SDNN, RMSSD, VLF, LF.(r were respectively -0.204, -0.161,-0.184,-0.197);Qi and blood deficiency group had negative relation with SDNN, SDANN, RMSSD and HRV triangular index, VLF, LF, LFnorm, and had positive relation with HFnorm(r were respectively-0.353,-0.348,-0.258, -0.303, -0.268, -0.361, -0.352, 0.267). Conclusion Hypertension patients with different type of TCM syndromes had different characteristics of autonomic nerve functional disorders, which both reflected the important pathological changes of TCM syndromes and had close relation with the course of hypertension, providing objective basis for clinical diagnosis of syndrome differentiation.
