Effects of aerobic training on heart rate dynamics in sedentary subjects

TL;DR: Aerobic training in sedentary subjects results in altered autonomic regulation of HR toward vagal dominance and a moderate training volume is a sufficient intervention to induce these beneficial effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of sympathetic nerve activity in skin blood flow oscillations in humans

TL;DR: The wavelet transform is used to evaluate the time-frequency content of laser-Doppler flowmetry signals measured simultaneously on the surfaces of free microvascular flaps deprived of sympathetic nerve activity and on adjacent intact skin, in humans to determine the frequency interval within which SNA manifests itself in peripheral blood flow oscillations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sympathetic restraint of respiratory sinus arrhythmia: implications for vagal-cardiac tone assessment in humans.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined modulation of respiratory sinus arrhythmia by sympathetic outflow and fitted changes of respiratory frequency R-R interval spectral power with a damped oscillator model: frequency-dependent oscillations with a resonant frequency, generated by driving forces and modified by damping influences.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heart rate dynamics during three forms of meditation.

TL;DR: The results support the concept of a "meditation paradox," since a variety of relaxation and meditative techniques may produce active rather than quiescent cardiac dynamics, associated with prominent low frequency heart rate oscillations or increases in mean resting heart rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fractal analysis of heart rate variability and mortality after an acute myocardial infarction.

TL;DR: Short-term fractal scaling analysis of HR variability is a powerful predictor of mortality among patients surviving an acute myocardial infarction, and alpha(1) was the most significant independent HR variability index that predicted subsequent mortality.

A new look at the statistical model identification

TL;DR: In this article, a new estimate minimum information theoretical criterion estimate (MAICE) is introduced for the purpose of statistical identification, which is free from the ambiguities inherent in the application of conventional hypothesis testing procedure.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the use of windows for harmonic analysis with the discrete Fourier transform

F.J. Harris
TL;DR: A comprehensive catalog of data windows along with their significant performance parameters from which the different windows can be compared is included, and an example demonstrates the use and value of windows to resolve closely spaced harmonic signals characterized by large differences in amplitude.
Journal ArticleDOI

Power spectrum analysis of heart rate fluctuation: a quantitative probe of beat-to-beat cardiovascular control

TL;DR: It is shown that sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous activity make frequency-specific contributions to the heart rate power spectrum, and that renin-angiotensin system activity strongly modulates the amplitude of the spectral peak located at 0.04 hertz.
Journal ArticleDOI

Power spectral analysis of heart rate and arterial pressure variabilities as a marker of sympatho-vagal interaction in man and conscious dog.

TL;DR: The spontaneous beat-to-beat oscillation in R-R interval during control recumbent position, 90° upright tilt, controlled respiration and acute and chronic β-adrenergic receptor blockade was analyzed, indicating that sympathetic nerves to the heart are instrumental in the genesis of low-frequency oscillations in R -R interval.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decreased heart rate variability and its association with increased mortality after acute myocardial infarction

TL;DR: HR variability remained a significant predictor of mortality after adjusting for clinical, demographic, other Holter features and ejection fraction, and a hypothesis to explain this finding is that decreased HR variability correlates with increased sympathetic or decreased vagal tone, which may predispose to ventricular fibrillation.
