Background and objectives Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a global health burden and is
independently associated with increased cardiovascular disease risk. Assessment of …

Heart rate variability (HRV) is significantly associated with average heart rate (HR),
therefore, HRV actually provides information on two quantities, that is, on HR and its …

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

Stroke prediction is a key health issue for preventive medicine. Atrial fibrillation (AF)
detection is well established and the importance of obstructive sleep apneas (OSA) has …

Abstract Background/Aims: Low heart rate variability (HRV) is a risk factor for adverse
outcomes in the general population. We aimed to determine the factors associated with HRV …

Adequate sympathetic nervous system activation is essential for the compensatory
mechanisms of blood pressure maintenance during the hemodialysis (HD) procedure …

Inflammation and autonomic dysfunction are common findings in chronic and end-stage
kidney disease and contribute to a markedly increased risk of mortality in this patient …

While diabetes is characterized by hyperglycemia, nutrient metabolic pathways like amino
acid and tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle are also profoundly perturbed. As glycemic control …

Omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) may modulate autonomic control of the heart
because omega-3 PUFA is abundant in the brain and other nervous tissue as well as in …

Objective Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) appear to have
impaired cardiac autonomic modulation with depressed heart rate variability (HRV) …
