Age-associated alteration of sympatho-vagal balance in a female population assessed through the tone-entropy analysis.

Abstract:

:Through our recent studies on heart rate variability (Oida et al. J Appl Physiol 82:1794-1801, 1997; J Gerontol 54A:M219-M224, 1999a; Acta Physiol Scand 165:129-134, 1999b; Acta Physiol Scand 165:421-422, 1999c), we discover that autonomic functions could be assessed quantitatively in time domain by the tone-entropy (T-E) methodology, where the tone represents sympatho-vagal balance, and the entropy, autonomic regulatory activity. The purpose of this study was then to elucidate an age-associated alteration of sympatho-vagal balance in a female population through this T-E method. ECG R-R time intervals at rest were acquired on 10 min for 73 female subjects. Ageing influence was examined by comparisons between two groups: middle-aged group (40-50), (51.5 +/- 0.7 year, n = 28) and old-aged (60-70), (69.5 +/- 0.8 year, n = 45)]. Evaluated tone: [-0.058 +/- 0.011 (40-50), and 0.027 +/- 0.003 (60-70) (P < 0.01)], and entropy: [3.46 +/- 0.11 (40-50), and 3.06 +/- 0.08 bit (60-70) (P<0.01)]. The result showed that the tone was high and the entropy was low in the old-aged compared with the middle-aged group. When the result was plotted in two-dimensional T-E space, it revealed a curvi-linear relation between the tone and the entropy, consistent with our previous studies on pharmacological blockades, on heart recovery after dynamic exercise and on a male ageing. In conclusion, the result suggested that the sympatho-vagal balance altered or the vagal predominance was impaired with age significantly in this female population. Interestingly, comparing with corresponding male, the female had better autonomic functions.
