Aim: The assessment of heart rate variability (HRV) has been considered as an important
non-invasive method to evaluate cardiac autonomic function. Concerning recent evidence …

BACKGROUND: Little is known about autonomic dysfunction in patients with sarcoidosis.
Heart rate variability (HRV) studies provide information regarding sympathetic and vagal …

Purpose: The identification of subjects with systemic sarcoidosis at higher risk for sudden
death is an unresolved issue. An influence of the autonomic activity on the genesis of …

Background: Patients with sarcoidosis (Sarc) often have autonomic dysfunction, which could
be evaluated noninvasively by heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. Nonlinear HRV …

Background Sarcoidosis, an inflammatory granulomatous disease, is associated with
various cardiac disorders, including threatening ventricular arrhythmias and sudden cardiac …

Objective: Cardiac sarcoidosis (CS) can manifest with different clinical signs and has a poor
prognosis, but the heart is rarely affected alone. We aim to evaluate the arrhythmogenic …

The clinical manifestations of cardiac involvement are seen in about 5% of patients with
sarcoidosis; however, the incidence of cardiac involvement is higher in the autopsy series …

Background Early detection of cardiac involvement in sarcoidosis is difficult but essential to
achieve optimal treatment. Signal-averaged electrocardiography (SAECG) can detect subtle …

Autonomic dysfunction seems to be involved in the progression and prognosis of congestive
heart failure. Measurement of heart rate variability (HRV) provides a noninvasive method to …
