OBJECTIVE: We describe associations among the heart-rate-corrected QT (QTc) interval, QTc dispersion (QTc-d), circadian BP variation, and autonomic function in obese normotensive women and the effect of sustained weight loss.
RESEARCH METHODS AND PROCEDURES: In 71 obese (BMI = 37.14 +/- 2.6 kg/m(2)) women, 25 to 44 years of age, circadian BP variations (24-hour ambulatory BP monitoring), autonomic function (power spectral analysis of RR interval oscillations), and cardiac repolarization times (QTc-d and QTc interval) were recorded at baseline and after 1 year of a multidisciplinary program of weight reduction.
RESULTS: Compared with nonobese age-matched women (n = 28, BMI = 23 +/- 2.0 kg/m(2)), obese women had higher values of QTc-d (p < 0.05) and QTc (p < 0.05), an altered sympathovagal balance (ratio of low-frequency/high-frequency power, p < 0.01), and a blunted nocturnal drop in BP (p < 0.01). In obese women, QTc-d and the QTc interval correlated with diastolic nighttime BP (p < 0.01) and sympathovagal balance (p < 0.01). Waist-to-hip ratio, free fatty acids, and plasma insulin levels correlated with QT intervals and reduced nocturnal drops in both systolic and diastolic BP and sympathovagal balance (p < 0.01). After 1 year, obese women lost at least 10% of their original weight, which was associated with decrements of QTc-d (p < 0.02), the QTc interval (p < 0.05), nighttime BP (p < 0.01), and sympathovagal balance (p < 0.02).
DISCUSSION: Sustained weight loss is a safe method to ameliorate diastolic nighttime BP drop and sympathetic overactivity, which may reduce the cardiovascular risk in obese women.
