摘要
战斗相关的创伤性损伤(CRTI)与心血管疾病(CVD)风险增加有关。CRTI对心率变异性(HRV)的长期影响——一种强有力的心血管疾病风险指标——尚未被探索。本研究探讨CRTI、损伤机制和损伤严重程度与HRV的关系。方法:这是对来自武装部队创伤和康复结局(ADVANCE)前瞻性队列研究的基线数据的分析。样本包括在部署期间(2003-2014年,阿富汗)患有CRTI的英国军人和一个未受伤的对照组,该对照组根据年龄、军衔、部署期间和战区角色与受伤组进行频率匹配。通过结果测量连续差异均方根(RMSSD)作为超短期HRV的测量:总体而言,纳入了862名年龄为33.9±5.4岁的参与者,其中428人(49.6%)受伤,434人(50.3%)未受伤。从受伤/部署到评估的平均时间为7.91±2.05年。伤者的中位(IQR) NISS为12(6-27),爆炸是主要的损伤机制(76.8%)。损伤组的中位RMSSD (IQR)显著低于未损伤组(39.47 ms (27.77 ~ 59.77) vs 46.22 ms(31.14 ~ 67.84)。结论:CRTI、较高严重程度和爆炸损伤与HRV呈负相关。需要对CRTI-HRV关系中的潜在中介因素进行纵向研究和检查。
Relationship between combat-related traumatic injury and ultrashort term heart rate variability in a UK military cohort: findings from the ADVANCE study.
Introduction: Combat-related traumatic injury (CRTI) has been linked to an increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. The long-term impact of CRTI on heart rate variability (HRV)-a robust CVD risk marker-has not been explored. This study investigated the relationship between CRTI, the mechanism of injury and injury severity on HRV.
Methods: This was an analysis of baseline data from the ArmeD SerVices TrAuma and RehabilitatioN OutComE (ADVANCE) prospective cohort study. The sample consisted of UK servicemen with CRTI sustained during deployment (Afghanistan, 2003-2014) and an uninjured comparison group who were frequency matched to the injured group based on age, rank, deployment period and role in theatre. Root mean square of successive differences (RMSSD) was measured as a measure of ultrashort term HRV via <16 s continuous recording of the femoral arterial pulse waveform signal (Vicorder). Other measures included injury severity (New Injury Severity Scores (NISS)) and injury mechanism.
Results: Overall, 862 participants aged 33.9±5.4 years were included, of whom 428 (49.6%) were injured and 434 (50.3%) were uninjured. The mean time from injury/deployment to assessment was 7.91±2.05 years. The median (IQR) NISS for those injured was 12 (6-27) with blast being the predominant injury mechanism (76.8%). The median (IQR) RMSSD was significantly lower in the injured versus the uninjured (39.47 ms (27.77-59.77) vs 46.22 ms (31.14-67.84), p<0.001). Using multiple linear regression (adjusting for age, rank, ethnicity and time from injury), geometric mean ratio (GMR) was reported. CRTI was associated with a 13% lower RMSSD versus the uninjured group (GMR 0.87, 95% CI 0.80-0.94, p<0.001). A higher injury severity (NISS ≥25) (GMR 0.78, 95% CI 0.69-0.89, p<0.001) and blast injury (GMR 0.86, 95% CI 0.79-0.93, p<0.001) were also independently associated with lower RMSSD.
Conclusion: These results suggest an inverse association between CRTI, higher severity and blast injury with HRV. Longitudinal studies and examination of potential mediating factors in this CRTI-HRV relationship are needed.
