...Aracy Satoe Mautari Niwa; Michele Lima Gregório; Luiz Eduardo Villaça Leão; Moacir Fernandes de Godoy Background: Pathophysiology mechanism of primary focal hyperhidrosis (PFHH) is controversial. Heart rate variability (HRV) could explain if there is a systemic component present. We aimed...

... and 7 weeks post onset time, had higher heart rate and lower heart rate variability (HRV) values at rest compared to controls. A significant reduction in HRV values was noted among healthy controls during static and dynamic muscle contractions compared to baseline. In contrast, stroke patients 2 weeks...

...Orit Shapira-Vadler; Iuly Treger; Michal Katz-Leurer Background: To compare the rate of recovery of motor and functional ability and heart rate variability (HRV) parameters during the inpatient rehabilitation period. Summary: Twenty-three patients post first stroke at the sub-acute phase underwent...

...P. Ginsburg; G. Bartur; S. Peleg; J.J. Vatine; M. Katz-Leurer Aim: To examine test-retest reliability of time and frequency domain heart rate variability (HRV) in patients 1 month after stroke during rest, paced breathing and light-to-moderate physical activity. Methods: Fifteen patients up to 1...

... population included 126 consecutive first-ever stroke survivors (mean age 59.7 ± 11.6 years). Time-domain measures of heart rate variability (HRV) by 24-hour Holter monitoring (HM) were considered in all cases. By the end of the rehabilitation program an unfavorable functional outcome with dependency...

...Peter Birner; Harald Heinzl; Monika Schindl; Jiri Pumprla; Peter Schnider Cardiac autonomic function in patients (n = 63) with primary focal hyperhidrosis and healthy controls (n = 28) was investigated by short-term frequency domain power spectral analysis of heart rate variability. The power...
