Analyses of Heart Rate, Respiration and Cardiorespiratory Coupling in Patients with Schizophrenia

Abstract: Schizophrenia is a severe mental disorder associated with a significantly increased cardiovascular mortality rate. However, the underlying mechanisms leading to this cardiovascular disease (CVD) are not fully known. Therefore, the objective of this study was to characterize the cardiorespiratory influence by investigating heart rate, respiration and the causal strength and direction of cardiorespiratory coupling (CRC), based mainly on entropy measures. We investigated 23 non-medicated patients with schizophren… Show more

“…Indeed, numerous entropy-based metrics have recently provided a significant ability to reveal useful information from diseases that still represent a clinical challenge, such as Alzheimer's [1], schizophrenia [2], myocardial infarction [3] or atrial fibrillation (AF) [4], among others. The information provided by these metrics is mainly related to underlying mechanisms that cannot be quantified directly by clinicians in an exploratory examination, thus providing a significant knowledge increase of those diseases, as well as improving their diagnosis and treatment [5,6].…”

“…However, a limitation of all univariate nonlinear methods is that they are not able to quantify the direct interrelationships such as the nonlinear influence of respiration on heart rate. Therefore, they have limited power to reveal the underlying physiological mechanisms responsible for changes in cardiorespiratory complexity [76].…”

“…We investigated [76,101,102] non-medicated 23 patients with schizophrenia (SZ; 12 male; 30.4˙10.3 years) and 23 healthy subjects (CO, 13 male; 30.3˙9.5 years) matched regarding to age and sex (Table 2.1) to quantify heart rate-and respiratory variability (HRV, RESPV) and their dynamics as well as the cardiorespiratory coupling (CRC).…”
