The present meta-analysis aimed to quantify current evidence on sex differences in the
autonomic control of the heart, indexed by measures of heart rate variability (HRV) in healthy …

It is well known that cardiovascular disease manifests differently in women and men. The
underlying causes of these differences during the aging lifespan are less well understood …

Covering everything from historical and international perspectives to basic science and
current clinical practice, Miller's Anesthesia, 9th Edition, remains the preeminent reference in …

In the recent years, short-term heart rate variability (HRV) describing complex variations of
beat-to-beat interval series that are mainly controlled by the autonomic nervous system …

There is an increasing awareness that sex is a major determinant of the incidence,
aetiology, and clinical presentation of arrhythmias, and that there are sex differences in …

Objectives. This study sought to define the effects of age and gender effects on the normal
range of time domain heart rate variability (HRV) over nine decades in healthy subjects …

Alterations of the baroreceptor‐heart rate reflex (baroreflex sensitivity, BRS) contribute to the
reciprocal reduction of parasympathetic activity and increase of sympathetic activity that …

Long-term endurance training significantly influences how the autonomic nervous system
controls heart function. Endurance training increases parasympathetic activity and …

Background: It is unclear from prior reports whether the relationships between self-ratings of
anxiety or emotional stress and parasympathetic nervous system components of heart rate …

Hypertension (HTN) is a primary risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) events, target organ
damage (TOD), premature death and disability worldwide. The pathophysiology of HTN is …
