“…Jain et al showed LF/HF was higher in overweight and obese group. 26 Schmid et al showed no difference in LF/HF ratio between underweight and normal weight. 19 Contrary to the results of our study Millis et al showed high body fat has association with greater vagal activity and also there was significant negative correlation of body fat with LF/HF ratio and this controversy could be attributed to the smaller sample size involved in their study.…”

Background: Heart rate variability (HRV) is a used to assess autonomic nervous system input to the heart. Studies on the impact of HRV on underweight are limited. Aims/Objectives: To evaluate HRV in age matched young adults of different BMI category. Methodology: This cross-sectional study was done among healthy young adult volunteers between 18 and 25 years of age. Anthropometric variables were measured. ECG was recorded in lead II configuration for 5 minutes. Heart rate variability was analysed with Kubios HRV analyzer. Results: HRV indices were reduced in underweight (UW), overweight (OW) and obese group compared to normal weight (NW) BMI group. Second order polynomial regression between BMI and HF log power in both genders shows an inverted U-shaped relationship with BMI. The association between BMI, waist circumference and body fat (percentage) with HRV indices shows a significant relation to heart rate variability among which waist circumference (WC) shows a greater association with HRV indices than BMI. Comparison of HRV parameters among men and women of different BMI group shows female had greater heart rate variability compared to males across BMI Conclusions: underweight individual also have increased cardiovascular risk like obese group and abdominal obesity is better indicator of cardiovascular risk than BMI.

“…Our study differed from theirs in that 40-to 50-year-old male individuals were included and Asian BMI cutoff criteria were considered, resulting in a different BMI. Compared to the normal weight group, Rajalakshmi et al noticed a substantial drop in overall power, high frequency power, and an increase in low frequency power [14,15].…”

Background and objectives: HRV is used to evaluate autonomic nervous system input to the heart. Several studies have examined the effect of HRV on underweight status. To assess HRV in age-matched young people with varying BMI categories. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on healthy young adults between the ages of 18 and 25. Variables of anthropometrics were measured. ECG was recorded for 5 minutes in lead II setup. Kubios HRV analyzer was used to evaluate heart rate variability. Results: HRV indices were lower in the underweight, overweight, and obese BMI groups compared to the normal weight group. Both genders exhibit an inverted U-shaped association between BMI and HF log power based on second-order polynomial regression. The correlation between BMI, waist circumference, and body fat (%) and HRV indices demonstrates a substantial relationship with heart rate variability, with waist circumference (WC) exhibiting a stronger relationship than BMI. Comparing HRV parameters between men and women of different BMI groups reveals that women exhibited more heart rate variability than men across BMI groups. Conclusion: Underweight individuals share the same elevated cardiovascular risk as the obese, and abdominal obesity is a more accurate predictor of cardiovascular risk than the body mass index (BMI).
