cortex (ACC), amygdala, hypothalamus, periaqueductal gray matter, parabrachial nucleus …

The understanding of heart rate variability (HRV) has increased parallel with the
development of modern physiology. Discovered probably first in 1847 by Ludwig, clinical …

The normal heartbeat slightly fluctuates around a mean value; this phenomenon is called
physiological heart rate variability (HRV). It is well known that altered HRV is a risk factor for …

Chronic treatment with acetylcholinesterase inhibitors may be a promising therapeutic
strategy for treatment of cardiovascular diseases. The aim of our study was to analyze the …

Heart rate variability is significantly associated with cardiovascular complications in various
neurological disorders with cardiac impairment. Measures of spontaneous heart rate …

Objective To describe heart rate variability (HRV) in horses with acute gastrointestinal
disease that undergo exploratory laparotomy. We hypothesized that horses with ischemic …

Background Autonomic arousal-responses to emotional stimuli change with age. Age-
dependent autonomic responses to music-onset are undetermined. Objective To determine …

Background: Atherosclerotic carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) may be associated with
alterations in the sensitivity of carotid baroreceptors. The aim of this study was to investigate …

Background: Predicting perinatal outcomes based on patterns of fetal heart rate (FHR)
remains a challenge. The aim of this study was to evaluate intrapartum FHR variability as …

Background MS-associated autonomic dysfunction (AD) in multiple sclerosis (MS) is poorly
understood and the best method for its detection unestablished. We compared classical …
