چکیده

Introduction Familial Mediterranean Fever (FMF) is an autoinflammatory disorder characterized by recurrent fever associated with inflammation of serous membranes. There is no study reporting the assessment of autonomic functions by using heart rate variability (HRV) in children with FMF. HRV is a practical and reliable method for evaluation of autonomic functions. HRV studies have pointed to the presence of autonomic dysfunctions in many autoinflammatory disorders, possible contributing factors to ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death in these patients.
