Abstract
BACKGROUND Although abnormal heart rate variability (HRV) is frequently observed in patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), its time course and presentation of different indices remain unclear, and few studies have focused on its association with clinical outcomes. METHODS We prospectively recruited consecutive patients with spontaneous ICH between June 2014 and June 2021. HRV was evaluated twice during hospitalization (within 7 days and 10-14 days after stroke). Time and frequency domain indices were calculated. A modified Rankin Scale score ≥ 3 at 3 months was defined as a poor outcome. RESULTS Finally, 122 patients with ICH and 122 age- and sex-matched volunteers were included. Compared with controls, time domain and absolute frequency domain HRV parameters (total power, low frequency [LF], and high frequency [HF]) in the ICH group were significantly decreased within 7 days and 10-14 days. For relative values, normalized LF (LF%) and LF/HF were significantly higher, whereas normalized HF (HF%) was significantly lower, in the patient group than in the control group. Furthermore, LF% and HF% measured at 10-14 days were independently associated with 3-month outcomes. CONCLUSIONS HRV values were impaired significantly within 14 days after ICH. Furthermore, HRV indices measured 10-14 days after ICH were independently associated with 3-month outcomes.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Blood pressure (BP) fluctuations outside of clinic are increasingly recognized for their role in the development of cardiovascular disease, syncope, and premature death and as a promising target for tailored hypertension treatment. However, current cuff-based BP devices, including home and ambulatory devices, are unable to capture the breadth of BP variability across human activities, experiences, and contexts. RECENT FINDINGS Cuffless, wearable BP devices offer the promise of beat-to-beat, continuous, noninvasive measurement of BP during both awake and sleep periods with minimal patient inconvenience. Importantly, cuffless BP devices can characterize BP variability, allowing for the identification of patient-specific triggers of BP surges in the home environment. Unfortunately, the pace of evidence, regulation, and validation testing has lagged behind the pace of innovation and direct consumer marketing. We provide an overview of the available technologies and devices for cuffless BP monitoring, considerations for the calibration and validation of these devices, and the promise and pitfalls of the cuffless BP paradigm.

Abstract
We introduce McDAPS, an interactive software for assessing autonomic imbalance from non-invasive multi-channel physiological recordings. McDAPS provides a graphical user interface for data visualization, beat-to-beat processing and interactive analyses. The software extracts beat-to-beat RR interval systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, the pulse amplitude of photoplethysmogram and the pulse-to-pulse interval. The analysis modules include stationary and time-varying power spectral analyses, moving-correlation analysis and univariate analyses. Analyses can also be performed in batch mode if multiple datasets have to be processed in the same way. The program exports results in standard CSV format. McDAPS runs in MATLAB, and is supported on MS Windows and MAC OS systems. The MATLAB source code is available at https://github.com/thuptimd/McDAPS.git.

Abstract
Pulse transit time (PTT), which refers to the travel time between two arterial sites within the same cardiac cycle, has been developed as a novel cuffless form of continuous blood pressure (BP) monitoring. The aim of this study was to investigate differences in BP parameters, including BP variability, between those assessed by beat-to-beat PTT-estimated BP (eBPBTB) and those assessed by intermittent PTT-estimated BP at fixed time intervals (eBPINT) in patients suspected of having sleep disordered breathing (SDB). In 330 patients with SDB (average age, 66.8 ± 11.9 years; 3% oxygen desaturation index [ODI], 21.0 ± 15.0/h) from 8 institutes, PTT-estimated BP was continuously recorded during the nighttime. The average systolic eBPBTB, maximum systolic and diastolic eBPBTB, standard deviation (SD) of systolic and diastolic eBPBTB, and coefficient variation (CV) of systolic and diastolic eBPBTB were higher than the respective values of eBPINT (all P < 0.05). Bland–Altman analysis showed a close agreement between eBPBTB and eBPINT in average systolic BP and SD and CV of systolic BP, while there were disagreements in both minimum and maximum values of eBPBTB and eBPINT in patients with high systolic BP (P < 0.05). Although systolic BP variability incrementally increased according to the tertiles of 3%ODI in both eBPBTB and eBPINT (all P < 0.05), there was no difference in this tendency between eBPBTB and eBPINT. In patients with suspected SDB, the difference between eBPBTB and eBPINT was minimal, and there were disagreements regarding both the minimum and maximum BP. However, there were agreements in regard to the index of BP variability between eBPBTB and eBPINT. ![]()

Abstract
Cardiac alternans, a beat-to-beat alternation in action potential duration (APD), can lead to fatal arrhythmias. During periodic pacing, changes in diastolic interval (DI) depend on subsequent changes in APD, thus enhancing cardiac instabilities through a 'feedback' mechanism. Recently, an anti-arrhythmic Constant DI pacing protocol was proposed and shown to be effective in suppressing alternans in 0D and 1D in silico studies. However, previous experimental validation of Constant DI pacing in the heart has been unsuccessful due to the spatio-temporal complexity of 2D cardiac tissue and the technical challenges in its real-time implementation. Here, we developed a novel closed loop system to detect T-waves from real-time ECG data, enabling successful implementation of Constant DI pacing protocol, and performed high-resolution optical mapping experiments on isolated whole rabbit hearts to validate its anti-arrhythmic effects. The results were compared with: (1) Periodic pacing (feedback inherent) and (2) pacing with heart rate variability (HRV) (feedback modulation) introduced by using either Gaussian or Physiological patterns. We observed that Constant DI pacing significantly suppressed alternans in the heart, while maintaining APD spatial dispersion and flattening the slope of the APD restitution curve, compared to traditional Periodic pacing. In addition, introduction of HRV in Periodic pacing failed to prevent cardiac alternans, and was arrhythmogenic.

Abstract
PURPOSE There is increasing interest into the potentially beneficial effects of galactose for obesity and type 2 diabetes management as it is a low-glycemic sugar reported to increase satiety and fat mobilization. However, fructose is also a low-glycemic sugar but with greater blood pressure elevation effects than after glucose ingestion. Therefore, we investigated here the extent to which the ingestion of galactose, compared to glucose and fructose, impacts upon haemodynamics and blood pressure. METHODS In a randomized cross-over study design, 9 overnight-fasted young men attended 3 separate morning sessions during which continuous cardiovascular monitoring was performed at rest for at least 30 min before and 120 min after ingestion of 500 mL of water containing 60 g of either glucose, fructose or galactose. These measurements included beat-to-beat systolic and diastolic blood pressure, heart rate deduced by electrocardiography, and stroke volume derived by impedance cardiography; these measurements were used to calculate cardiac output and total peripheral resistance. RESULTS Ingestion of galactose, like glucose, led to significantly lesser increases in systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressure than fructose ingestion (p < 0.05). Furthermore, the increase in cardiac output and reduction in total peripheral resistance observed after ingestion of glucose were markedly lower after galactose ingestion (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Galactose thus presents the interesting characteristics of a low-glycemic sugar with mild cardiovascular effects. Further studies are warranted to confirm the clinical relevance of the milder cardiovascular effects of galactose than other sugars for insulin resistant obese and/or diabetic patients with cardiac insufficiency.
