Cardiac innervation by the parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) and the sympathetic
nervous system (SNS) modulates the heart rate (HR)(chronotropic activity) and the …

Heart rate variability (HRV) non-invasively assesses the activity of the autonomic nervous
system. During the past 30years, an increasing number of studies have related the …

Background: Autonomic nervous system (ANS) dysfunction is an important factor in the
