Syväoja, Heidi. 2010. Effects of exercise intensity on recovery of autonomic nervous system immediately after exercise and during sleep, and on subjective and objective sleep quality. Master´s thesis in Exercise Physiology. Department of Biology of Physical Activity. University of Jyväskylä, 90. The exercise can be considered as a one form of stress, because it induces marked changes in the autonomic regulation of heart rate (HR). During acute exercise, parasympathetic activity decreases and sympathetic activity increases. Parasympathetic activity declines a lot or even disappears, when the exercise intensity is high. After acute exercise cessation, fast changes occur in the cardiac functio…
Reliability and Sensitivity of Nocturnal Heart Rate and Heart-Rate Variability in Monitoring Individual Responses to Training Load
2022
Purpose: To assess the reliability of nocturnal heart rate (HR) and HR variability (HRV) and to analyze the sensitivity of these markers to maximal endurance exercise. Methods: Recreational runners recorded nocturnal HR and HRV on nights after 2 identical low-intensity training sessions (n = 15) and on nights before and after a 3000-m running test (n = 23). Average HR, the natural logarithm of the root mean square of successive differences (LnRMSSD), and the natural logarithm of the high-frequency power (LnHF) were analyzed from a full night (FULL), a 4-hour (4H) segment starting 30 minutes after going to sleep, and morning value (MOR) based on the endpoint of the linear fit through all 5-m…
The red ear syndrome and migraine: the role of the parasympathetic system in a complex and intriguing clinical association
2010
Background and aims: The red ear syndrome (RES) is a rare syndrome characterized by burning pain and cutaneous erythema in the ear. It is probably due to an autonomic dysfunction, because of a hypofunction of sympathetic and/or a hyperactivity of parasympathetic control. We have previously described an intriguing association with migraine. In the present study, we have investigated the pathophysiological links between the RES and the clinical features of migraine, and pointed out the crucial role of the parasympathetic system. Methods: A total of 172 young migraine sufferers (92 M and 80 F, aged 4–17 years) underwent a clinical and instrumental evaluation. A semi-structured interview about …
Heart rate variability and self-control–A meta-analysis
2016
We read the commentary on our meta-analysis with great interest and we greatly appreciate that the authors developed suggestions for further research on heart rate variability (HRV) and self-control. While we mostly support these suggestions, we believe that it is necessary to clarify some points raised with respect to our meta-analysis. The first point brought up by the authors of the commentary is the focus of our meta-analysis on HRV instead of vagal tone and the inclusion of studies using the standard deviation of RR intervals (SDNN). They argue that only vagal tone and HRV metrics reflecting vagal tone are expected to be linked to self-control according to both the Neurovisceral Integr…
