Preliminary evidence of cardiac dysfunction in subacute sclerosing panencephalitis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
The few available studies provide preliminary evidence suggesting that cardiac autonomic disturbances, including elevated heart rates and reduced HRV, occur in a subset of patients with SSPE. More rigorously designed investigations are needed to clarify the prevalence, mechanisms, and clinical impact of cardiac dysfunction in SSPE.
