RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Autonomic description in patients with very early TTR amyloidosis (Familial Amyloid Polyneuropathy). (P2.115) JF Neurology JO Neurology FD Lippincott Williams & Wilkins SP P2.115 VO 90 IS 15 Supplement A1 Duarte, Maria Alejandra Gonzalez A1 Bañuelos, Carlo Enrico A1 García, Karen A1 Fueyo, Omar A1 Dominguez, Carolina A1 Cardenas-Soto, Karla YR 2018 UL http://n.neurology.org/content/90/15_Supplement/P2.115.abstract AB Objective: To describe autonomic dysfunction between different methods of assessment in patients with ATTR at an early stage of the disease.Background: Autonomic dysfunction is infrequently considered or limited to orthostatic hypotension or erectile dysfunction. These is insufficient to warrant treatment for life, and more objective measurements should be regarded.Design/Methods: Thirty-three patients were selected from a cohort of patients with TTR amyloidosis that fulfilled the diagnostic criteria: a positive amyloid mutation, stage 0 or I in Coutinho’s classification, and abnormal neurophysiologic or cardiologic tests that would show initiation of the disease. All patients completed all the clinical and autonomic evaluations.Results: Peripheral Neuropathy: Mean NIS was 6.9±12.8 points (0–61), mean UTAH Scale was 4.5±5.2 points (0–18), and mean Neuropathic score NTSS-6 was 3.9±5.4 points (health care professional) and 15.2±5.5 (self-administated). HRDB: All patients were below the 5th percentil for their age with HR response to DB. Mean E:I ratio was significantly more impaired in patients older than 40yo (24 vs 7 beats, p=0.001). Valsalva Ratio: VR was abnormal in 42% of patients above 40 years old. Tilt Test: SBP drop was higher in the tilt test than the standing up test with a mean drop of the SBP 74±17.7mmHg (100–27mmHg) with a maximum HR at minimum SBP significantly lower in patients older than 40 years old (125.9 vs 74 beats), p=0.000). 24-h BP recording: Mean SBP change was −84±26.6mmHg(−139—36mmHg), and DBP change was −83±31.9mmHg (−172-0). Spectral Analysis of HRV: Statistical difference was found between older than 40 years old and younger in SDNN (19.2±9.4 vs 56.6±31.1, P=0.003), TINN (230.99±126.7 vs 571.62±284.8, P=0.006), rMSSD (7±9.53 vs 24±34, P=0.42).Conclusions: Even at a very early stage of somatic neuropathy the patients showed important alterations in all autonomic tests.Disclosure: Dr. Gonzalez Duarte has nothing to disclose.
