Context It has been hypothesized that depression is associated with lower heart rate
variability and decreased cardiac vagal control. This may play an important role in the risk of …

BACKGROUND: Depression is associated with an increase in the likelihood of cardiac
events; however, studies investigating the relationship between depression and heart rate …

Objective: To determine whether patients with different types of anxiety disorder (panic
disorder, social phobia, generalized anxiety disorder) have higher heart rate and lower heart …

BackgroundPeople with depression tend to have lower heart rate variability (HRV), but the
temporal sequence is poorly understood. In a sample of the general population, we …

Objective To determine whether older primary care patients with a Major Depressive
Disorder (MDD) have lower heart rate variability (HRV) compared to non‐depressed …

BackgroundHeart rate variability (HRV) is known to be reduced in depression; however, is
unclear whether this is a consequence of the disorder or due to antidepressant medication …

Context Depression is associated with low heart rate variability (HRV) in patients following
myocardial infarction, suggesting that alterations in the autonomic nervous system may …

Context There is evidence that heart rate variability (HRV) is reduced in major depressive
disorder (MDD), although there is debate about whether this effect is caused by medication …

Background The literature measuring effects of antidepressant and electroconvulsive
therapy (ECT) for major depression on heart rate variability (HRV) in medically well …

Objective: There is a reciprocal association between major depressive disorder (MDD) and
coronary heart disease (CHD). These conditions are linked by a causal network of …
