Autonomic function is improved transiently in individuals with long-duration type 1 diabetes and normoalbuminuria or macroalbuminuria by acute oxygen inhalation and slow deep breathing. There is a risk of survival bias. Autonomic dysfunction might be a reversible condition, and hypoxia might represent a target of intervention.
