Short-term heart rate variability and factors modifying the risk of coronary artery disease in a population sample

Impact of Diet‐Induced Weight Loss on the Cardiac Autonomic Nervous System in Severe Obesity

“…We found an inverse correlation between LDL‐C levels and cardiac autonomic nervous system modulation. This is in accordance with a study reporting an inverse relationship between plasma levels of LDL‐C and cardiac parasympathetic activity in young normocholesterolemic subjects free of clinical heart disease (33). In contrast to Kupari et al (33), we found an inverse correlation between insulin levels and indices of parasympathetic activity.…”

In contrast to Kupari et al (33), we found an inverse correlation between insulin levels and indices of parasympathetic activity. The subjects in the study of Kupari et al were lean, with a BMI of 24 kg/m 2 , and had a low probability of being insulin resistant.…”

Effects of smoking status, history and intensity on heart rate variability in the general population: The CHRIS study

“…Our results support recent findings from the SAPALDIA study showing a dose-response effect of smoking on different HRV indicators [15]. Results showing that HRV levels are lower in heavy smokers than in non-smokers were reported by several clinical studies of smaller sample size [31; 32; 33]. Alyan et al .…”

Association of health behaviour with heart rate variability: a population-based study

“…Some authors reported a positive association in women [22,26], but others found a negative association [10,11] or no association [4,23,25]. Our results are in accordance with the latter findings.…”
