“…However, during physical exercise, the LF (nu) of asthmatic adults was obviously lower than that in healthy adults, while their HF (nu) was much higher. These results were similar to findings by Fujii et al. (2000), i.e that the HF (nu) of asthmatic kids was higher than that of non‐asthmatic children during exercise.…”

“…(Task Force of the European Society of Cardiology and the North American Society of Pacing and Electrophysiology, 1996). Fujii et al. (2000) analysed HRV in 15 children who suffered from asthma after physical exercise and discovered that five minutes later, their HF was significantly higher than normal children, and their FEV1 was significantly decreased.…”

“…Testing children without disturbances is difficult, particularly with children younger than 5 years old. Some studies have reported that autonomic dysfunction contributes to the pathophysiology of asthma (Fujii et al, 2000;Garrard et al, 1992; van der Velden and Hulsmann, 1999). HRV reflects autonomic nervous function (ANF) and can serve as a measure of ANF.…”

Background: Asthma is a chronic disease increasingly found in children. To find more economical and efficient alternatives to treat pediatric asthma, the Bureau of National Health Insurance of Taiwan launched the Traditional Chinese Medicine Holistic Treatment Program (TCMHTP). The effect of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) holistic treatments on pediatric asthma was evaluated based on data collected from the program. Materials and Methods: A retrospective study was performed by analyzing a dataset from Changhua Christian Hospital, Taiwan, between January 1st, 2006 and December 31st, 2010. Patients aged between 2 and 15 years, who had been diagnosed with asthma, and had participated in the TCMHTP were recruited, whereas those with other severe diseases were excluded. We analyzed the frequency of emergency department visits (EDV), inpatient admission rate (IAR), and length of hospitalization (LH) of the patients, before and after TCM treatments. Spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRV) was also conducted. Results: Fifty-eight patients were recruited. The average age of the patients receiving TCM treatments was 5.67±3.03 years. The frequency of EDV decreased from 0.94±0.85 to 0.67±1.19 times annually (p=0.095), the annual IAR decreased from 0.62±0.78 to 0.26±0.67 (p=0.002) and the average LH decreased from 3.32±4.25 to 0.80±1.64 (p=0.000) days per year. Parasympathetically mediated HRV decreased significantly from 60.42±15.33 to 54.89±16.45 nu (p=0.016). Conclusion: The present study revealed that an appropriate period of TCM holistic treatment intervention can not only significantly lower exacerbations and hospitalization frequency but also reduce vagal tone in asthmatic children.

“…Moreover, blood pressure responses mediated by sympathetic nervous system may reflect the altered sympathetic airway tone. Some investigators have suggested that increased parasympathetic activity might be associated with asthma and allergies using HRV analysis data [6,16]. If so, alteration in the resting HR towards bradycardia should exist in asthmatic patients.…”

The Daily Pattern of Heart Rate, Body Temperature, Locomotor Activity, and Autonomic Nervous Activity in Congenitally Bronchial-Hypersensitive (BHS) and Bronchial-Hyposensitive (BHR) Guinea Pigs.

Abstract:We studied the characteristics of the rhythmicity of heart rate (HR), body temperature (BT), locomotor activity (LA) and autonomic nervous activity in bronchialhypersensitive (BHS) and bronchial-hyposensitive (BHR) guinea pigs. For this purpose, HR, BT, LA, and electrocardiogram (ECG) were recorded from conscious and unrestrained guinea pigs using a telemetry system. Autonomic nervous activity was analyzed by power spectral analysis of heart rate variability.
