Correlation between Heart rate recovery and Left Atrial phasic functions evaluated by 2D speckle-tracking Echocardiography after Acute Myocardial infarction. BMC Cardiovasc Disord 2023; 23:164. [PMID: 36991359 PMCID: PMC10061796 DOI: 10.1186/s12872-023-03194-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 03/31/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart rate recovery (HRR) in the exercise test is the index of cardiac autonomic system function and sympathovagal balance impaired in patients with myocardial infarction (MI). An instance is left atrial (LA) phasic function, which is impaired in such patients. In this study, we investigated the role of HRR in predicting LA phasic functions in patients with MI. METHODS The present study recruited 144 consecutive patients with ST-elevation MI. A symptom-limited exercise test was performed about 5 weeks after MI, with echocardiography conducted just before the exercise test. The patients were divided into abnormal and normal HRR at 60 s (HRR60) and again into abnormal and normal HRR at 120 s (HRR120) after the exercise test. LA phasic functions, evaluated by 2D speckle-tracking echocardiography, were compared between the 2 groups. RESULTS Patients with abnormal HRR120 had lower LA strain values and strain rates during the reservoir, conduit, and contraction phases, while those with abnormal HRR60 had lower LA strain values and strain rates during the reservoir and conduit phases. The differences were lost after adjustments for possible confounders, except for LA strain and strain rate during the conduit phase, in patients with abnormal HRR120. CONCLUSIONS Abnormal HRR120 in the exercise test can independently predict decreased LA conduit function in patients with ST-elevation MI.

[PMID: 37123354 PMCID: PMC10130527 DOI: 10.3389/fnins.2023.1113225] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/01/2022] [Accepted: 03/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/02/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Previous studies have shown that the predictive value of traditional linear (time domain and frequency domain) heart rate variability (HRV) for the survival of patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is controversial. Nonlinear methods, based on the concept of complexity, have been used to evaluate HRV, providing a new means to reveal the physiological and pathological changes in HRV. This study aimed to assess the association between heartbeat complexity and overall survival in patients with advanced NSCLC. Methods This study included 78 patients with advanced NSCLC (mean age: 62.0 ± 9.3 years). A 5-min resting electrocardiogram of advanced NSCLC patients was collected to analyze the following HRV parameters: time domain indicators, i.e., standard deviation of the normal-normal intervals (SDNN) and root mean square of successive interval differences (RMSSD); frequency domain indicators, i.e., total power (TP), low frequency power (LF), high frequency power (HF), and the ratio of LF to HF (LF/HF); nonlinear HRV indicators characterizing heartbeat complexity, i.e., approximate entropy (ApEn), sample entropy (SampEn), and recurrence quantification analysis (RQA) indexes: mean diagonal line length (Lmean), maximal diagonal line length (Lmax), recurrence rate (REC), determinism (DET), and shannon entropy (ShanEn). Results Univariate analysis revealed that the linear frequency domain parameter HF and nonlinear RQA parameters Lmax, REC, and DET were significantly correlated with the survival of advanced NSCLC patients (all p < 0.05). After adjusting for confounders in the multivariate analysis, HF, REC, and DET were found to be independent prognostic factors for the survival of patients with advanced NSCLC (all p < 0.05). Conclusion There was an independent association between heartbeat complexity and survival in advanced NSCLC patients. The nonlinear analysis method based on RQA may provide valuable additional information for the prognostic stratification of patients with advanced NSCLC and may supplement the traditional time domain and frequency domain analysis methods.

Martins AD, Brito JP, Oliveira R, Costa T, Ramalho F, Santos-Rocha R, Pimenta N. Relationship between Heart Rate Variability and Functional Fitness in Breast Cancer Survivors: A Cross-Sectional Study. Healthcare (Basel) 2021; 9:healthcare9091205. [PMID: 34574979 PMCID: PMC8469708 DOI: 10.3390/healthcare9091205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2021] [Revised: 09/06/2021] [Accepted: 09/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy among women worldwide. The treatments may also cause neuromuscular and skeletal disorders; therefore, the aim of this study was to verify the existence of a relationship between heart rate variability and different functional fitness parameters in women survivors of breast cancer. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 25 women survivors of breast cancer, with a mean ± SD age, height, and body mass of 50.8 ± 8.8 years, 1.6 ± 0.7 m, and 67.1 ± 12.3 kg, respectively. Patients underwent measurements of heart rate variability with time and frequency domain analyses, as well as a “30 s chair-stand test”, “6 min walking test”, “timed up and go test”, and “ball throwing test”. Results: A multiple linear regression analysis showed that from the heart rate variability frequency domain, high frequency explained 21% (R2 = 0.21) of the “30 s chair-stand test” performance. Conclusion: The findings of this study highlight high frequency as a predictor of “30 s chair-stand test” performance, regardless of age and time after diagnosis, suggesting its usefulness as a clinical indicator of functionality in breast cancer survivors. This study presents a straightforward and non-invasive methodology predicting functional fitness in women breast cancer survivors potentially applicable to clinical practice.

Abstract
The number of older adults with cancer is increasing. Over the past 3 decades, geriatric oncology research has focused on improving the assessment of frailty and fitness of older adults with cancer as well as methods of improving their outcomes. At the same time, advances in digital health technologies have opened new frontiers for reaching this goal. Digital health technologies encompass a variety of solutions, from electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePROs) to Big Data and wireless sensors. These solutions have the potential to further advance our understanding of patients' experiences during cancer treatment. Whereas the data on the feasibility and utility of such solutions in the care of older adults with cancer are limited, interest from digital health oncology researchers to further explore the benefits of these products is increasing. In this article, we describe the focus of geriatric oncology, the rationale behind the need to explore digital health technologies in this setting, and emerging data and ongoing studies, as well as provide guidelines for proper selection, implementation, and testing of digital health solutions in the context of geriatric oncology.

Abstract
Heart rate variability (HRV) signals are reported to be associated with the personalized drug
response in many diseases such as major depressive disorder, epilepsy, chronic pain, hypertension, etc.
But the relationships between HRV signals and the personalized drug response in different diseases and
patients are complex and remain unclear. With the fast development of modern smart sensor technologies
and the popularization of big data paradigm, more and more data on the HRV and drug response
will be available, it then provides great opportunities to build models for predicting the association of
the HRV with personalized drug response precisely. We here review the present status of the HRV data
resources and models for predicting and evaluating of personalized drug responses in different diseases.
The future perspectives on the integration of knowledge and personalized data at different levels such as,
genomics, physiological signals, etc. for the application of HRV signals to the precision prediction of
drug therapy and their response will be provided.

Abstract
Background: Cardiovascular autonomic dysfunction is one of the most common complications in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which can be assessed by heart rate variability (HRV) analysis. Because the autonomic nervous system plays an important role in orchestrating the cardiovascular response to stressors, assessing HRV during exercise is critical. The Glittre Activities of Daily Living test (GA-T) was recently proposed as a multitask field test that requires the performance of the upper and lower limbs, both of which are affected in individuals with RA. Objectives: This study was conducted to evaluate autonomic impairment by HRV in women with RA using the GA-T and to correlate these changes with physical functioning and muscle strength. Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled 20 women (median [interquartile range]: age 55 [47.5 - 68.8] years) with RA (time since diagnosis: 15 [6.50 - 23.5] years) who underwent HRV assessment during GA-T. They also underwent physical functioning assessment through the Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index (HAQ-DI) and handgrip strength (HGS) and quadriceps strength (QS) measures. Results: The GA-T time exhibited significant correlations with the following HRV indices: root mean square of successive differences (RMSSD, rs = -0.451, P = 0.041), proportion of iRR differing by > 50 ms from previous intervals (pNN50, rs = -0.697, P = 0.0006), high frequency (HF, rs = -0.693, P = 0.0007), standard deviation of the points perpendicular to the line-of-identity (SD1, rs = -0.476, P = 0.034), and approximate entropy (ApEn, rs = 0.545, P = 0.013). In addition, the HAQ-DI exhibited significant correlations with the following HRV indices: pNN50 (rs = -0.467, P = 0.038) and HF (rs = -0.444, P = 0.049). We did not observe significant correlation between the HRV indices during the GA-T and the muscle strength measures (HGS and QS). Conclusions: In women with RA, the longer the required to perform the GA-T the worse their parasympathetic modulation, sympathetic-vagal imbalance, and complexity of the autonomic nervous system (i.e., increased index of ApEn) were. Physical functioning level was also related to vagal modulation.

Abstract
Lung cancer survivors are at risk for physical fitness and autonomic function impairments. In a cross-sectional study of consecutive lung cancer survivors post-curative intent therapy, we assessed and identified predictors of resting heart rate variability (HRV) and heart rate recovery (HRR), defined as standard deviation of normal-to-normal-R-to-R intervals (SDNN) and root-mean-square-of-successive-differences (rMSSD) from routine outpatient single 10-s electrocardiographs (ECGs) and difference in heart rate (HR) at 1-minute following and the end of the six-minute-walk-test (6MWT), respectively. In 69 participants, the mean (SD) HRR was -10.6 (6.7) beats. Significant independent predictors of HRR were age and HR change associated with the 6MWT. In a subset of 41 participants with available ECGs, the mean (SD) SDNN and rMSSD were 19.1 (15.6) and rMSSD 18.2 (14.6) ms, respectively. Significant independent predictors of HRV were supine HR, HRR, and total lung capacity. HRV/HRR may be useful physiological measures in studies aimed at improving physical fitness and/or autonomic function in lung cancer survivors.
