Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Possible involvement of autonomic dysfunction in the frailty was investigated. Changes in autonomic nervous function were evaluated by power spectral analysis of heart rate in 288 participants in Anti-aging doc in Ehime University Hospital. Diastolic blood pressure was significantly increased after standing, while systolic BP was not. Low frequency power area (LF) (0.04-0.15Hz) was significantly increased (p<0.0001) after standing, while high frequency power area (HF) was significantly decreased (p<0.0001) 3 minutes after standing. Neither LF nor HF was associated with basal BP as well as BP after standing. Both LF and HF were significantly associated with age, one leg standing time and indices of body sway in standing position. These findings indicate autonomic dysfunction may associate to the frailty related to the fall.
