    Purpose Although ulcerative colitis (UC) shows obvious similarities with other autoimmune diseases, cardiac consequences have not adequately introduced. The aim of our study was to evaluate left ventricular (LV) function in UC patients by using novel echocardiographic parameters. Results Forty-five UC patients (mean age 37, 18 female) and 90 age-and sex-matched healthy volunteers (mean age 40, 38 female) included in the study. The mean disease activity score according to partial Mayo score was 2.16 +/- 2.13. Mean global longitudinal strain (GLS) and global longitudinal strain rate (GLSR) measurements were significantly lower (-21.16 +/- 2.71 vs. -23.36 +/- 3.34; p < 0.001 and -1.33 +/- 0.24 vs. -1.43 +/- 0.24; p = 0.037, respectively), whereas global circumferential (-22.67 +/- 3.66 vs. -23.37 +/- 3.99; p = 0.140) and global radial strain (43.07 +/- 8.58 vs. 44.12 +/- 9.32; p = 0.545) measurements of the LV were similar in patients with UC compared with controls. The correlation coefficient (r) between GLS and partial Mayo score was -0.578 (p < 0.001). Conclusion Our study suggests that systolic cardiac deformation values are impaired in UC patients. Reduced GLS and GLSR might be an early indicator of cardiac involvement in this population.

    Effect of acute sleep deprivation on heart rate recovery in healthy young adults

    Sleep deprivation (SD) is known to be associated with increased incidence of adverse cardiovascular events, but underlying pathophysiological mechanism has not been clearly demonstrated. Autonomic nervous system plays an important role in the regulation of cardiovascular function, and impairment in this system is associated with increased cardiovascular mortality. The aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of acute SD on autonomic regulation of cardiac function by determining heart rate recovery (HRR). Twenty-one healthy security officers and nine nurses (mean age 33.25 +/- 8.18) were evaluated. Treadmill exercise test was applied once after a night with regular sleep and once after a night shift in hospital. The HRR was calculated as the reduction in heart rate from peak exercise to the 30th second (HRR30), 1st minute (HRR1), 2nd minute (HRR2), 3rd minute (HRR3), and 5th minute (HRR5). The change in blood pressure (BP) measurements was also determined. Exercise capacity of individuals with SD was significantly lower (10.96 +/- 1.01 vs. 11.71 +/- 1.30 metabolic equivalent task (MET)s; p = 0.002), and peak systolic BP was significantly higher (173.8 +/- 16.3 vs. 166.2 +/- 9.9; p = 0.019). There was a signicant difference in HRR30 (12.74 +/- 6.19 vs. 17.66 +/- 5.46; p = 0.003) and HRR1 (31 +/- 6.49 vs. 36.10 +/- 7.78; p = 0.004). The ratio of these indices to peak HR was also significantly lower with SD (HRR%(30) 8.04 +/- 4.26 vs. 10.19 +/- 3.21; p = 0.025 and HRR%(1): 18.66 +/- 4.43 vs. 20.98 +/- 4.72; p = 0.013). The difference in other indices of HRR was not significant. Our findings suggest that SD blunts cardiovascular autonomic response, and consequences of this relation might be more pronounced in subjects who are exposed to sleeplessness regularly or in subjects with baseline cardiovascular disease.
