Diabetes alters cardiorespiratory dynamics: insights from short-term recurrence quantification analysis of pulse-respiration quotient by José Javier Reyes-Lagos, Kioko Guzmán-Ramos, Joel Lomelí, Adriana Cristina Pliego-Carrillo, Miguel Ángel Peña-Castillo, Pedro López-Sánchez, Virgilio Eduardo Trujillo-Condes, Laura Ivoone Garay-Jiménez, Juan Carlos Echeverría, María Fernanda Villegas-Zarco, Laura Mercedes Santiago-Fuentes, Laura Mercedes Santiago-Fuentes

“…In this cross-sectional, exploratory study, we investigated whether T2DM alters cardiorespiratory dynamics by analyzing short-term PRQ signals using conventional linear indices and Recurrence Quantification Analysis (RQA).MethodsThirty-eight participants (20 T2DM and 18 controls) completed four standardized tasks—supine rest, orthostatic challenge, paced breathing, and the Valsalva maneuver—while electrocardiographic and respiratory signals were continuously recorded. From these signals, R-to-R peak interval (RRI) and breath-to-breath (BB) time series were derived, allowing us to compute the PRQ time series as the ratio of instantaneous heart rate to instantaneous breathing rate. …”
