dc.description.abstractObjectives: In children, cancer chemotherapy may impair the functioning of the cardiac autonomic nervous system. Moreover, it is not known whether there are any differences between intensive and maintenance phases of chemotherapy. Therefore, the aim of the current study was to assess autonomic nervous system activity using heart rate variability, in children receiving intensive or maintenance cancer chemotherapy. Methods: For that purpose, children who were healthy (healthy control, n = 30), receiving intensive chemotherapy (chemotherapy, n = 30), and receiving maintenance chemotherapy (maintenance, n = 25) were included in the study. Autonomic nervous system activity was measured by means of heart rate variability. Electrocardiogram recordings were used to calculate time- and frequency-domain heart rate variability parameters. Results: Time-domain parameters such as standard deviation of NN intervals and frequencydomain parameters such as total power were lower during the intensive chemotherapy but not during maintenance phase (standard deviation of NN intervals: 50 +/- 5, 33 +/- 3, and 48 +/- 3 ms, and total power: 2613 +/- 504, 1379 +/- 296 and 2295 +/- 264 ms2, respectively for healthy control, chemotherapy and maintenance groups, P<0.001 for both standard deviation of NN intervals and total Discussion: The present results indicate that intensive chemotherapy perturbs the function of heart rate variability in children, with recovery during the maintenance phase. This suggests that intensive chemotherapy is likely to affect the autonomic nervous system but this effect does not appear to be permanent. (c) 2021 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.en_US
