Table 2.
Univariate association of heart rate measures with SBI and upper quartile of log-WMHV.
SBI | Log-WMHV4 | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
Odds ratio (95% CI) | p value | Odds ratio (95% CI) | p value | |
Daytime heart rate | 0.95 (0.76 to 1.19) | 0.676 | 1.02 (0.85 to 1.21) | 0.855 |
Nighttime heart rate | 0.98 (0.76 to 1.26) | 0.875 | 1.23 (1.01 to 1.49) | 0.041 |
24-hour heart rate | 0.94 (0.74 to 1.20) | 0.619 | 1.09 (0.90 to 1.32) | 0.377 |
Heart rate variability | 0.89 (0.71 to 1.11) | 0.289 | 0.96 (0.81 to 1.14) | 0.620 |
Odds ratio for each increase of 10 beats/min and for increase of 0.04 heart rate variability.
CI = confidence interval, SBI = silent brain infarcts, and WMHV = white matter hyperintensity volume.
