Heart rate variability and progression of coronary atherosclerosis.
Low heart rate (HR) variability is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, but the causes and mechanisms of this association are not well known. This prospective study was designed to test the hypothesis that reduced HR variability is related to progression of coronary atherosclerosis. Average HR and HR variability were analyzed in 12-hour ambulatory ECG record...
متن کاملThe relationship between resting heart rate and atherosclerosis risk factors.
BACKGROUND AND AIM The imbalance between sympathetic and parasympathetic activity is one of the important factors in pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD). There is a relationship between sympathetic activity and some CVD risk factors. Also heart rate (HR) is related to the autonomic nervous system. We analysed the relation of mean resting HR to hypertension, diabetes, obesity and to so...
متن کاملRetarding effect of lowered heart rate on coronary atherosclerosis.
The role of heart rate in the development of coronary atherosclerosis was assessed in adult male cynomolgus monkeys (Macaca fascicularis). Heart rate was lowered in six animals by surgical ablation of the sinoatrial node. A sham procedure, which included all of the surgical steps except for sinoatrial node ablation, was carried out in eight animals. All of the monkeys were fed an atherogenic hi...
متن کاملAssociations Between Resting Heart Rate and Antisocial Behavior
Studies testing the relationship between autonomic nervous system function as indexed by low resting heart rate and antisocial behavior have found that low resting heart rate is positively correlated with a wide range of antisocial behavior measures. The aim of this review was to assess the influence of heart rate (HR) level and HR variability (HRV) on the relationship between behavioral variab...
متن کاملParticulate Air Pollution, Metabolic Syndrome, and Heart Rate Variability: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA)
BACKGROUND Cardiac autonomic dysfunction has been suggested as a possible biologic pathway for the association between fine particulate matter ≤ 2.5 µm in diameter (PM2.5) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). We examined the associations of PM2.5 with heart rate variability, a marker of autonomic function, and whether metabolic syndrome (MetS) modified these associations. METHODS We used data fr...
