“…Shetty et al 2015 [17] and Yakinci et al 2000 [18] found decreased parasympathetic activity but no significant difference in sympathetic activity in overweight individuals. Lower sympathetic and parasympathetic activity in obese children and adolescents was reported by Nagai et al 2003 [19] These conflicting results could be because of the fact that different age groups were recruited in the study and there was difficulty in controlling variables such as family history, diet, level of physical activity and stress [20] . The physical activity profile of the subject affects the cardiorespiratory fitness and hence parasympathetic nervous activity.…”

Introduction:The present study has been attempted to assess relationship between sympathetic nervous system activity and body mass index using autonomic function tests as diagnostic tools, which would thus help in detecting subclinical alteration of autonomic functions. Methods: Data such as name, age, gender etc. was recorded. The body mass index was calculated by using the formula wt[kg]/Ht[m 2 ]. Weight was measured with help of weighing machine and height with the help of anthropometer. Results: There was significant difference in valsalva test, deep breadth test, orthostatic test and hand grip test in subjects with different BMI (p<0.05). Conclusions: Authors found that there is a relationship of cardiovascular autonomic function with BMI. Sympathetic imbalance was seen in moderately obese and obese subjects.

“…[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] Another notable dysfunction associated with obesity is the disruption of cardiac autonomic function leading to alterations in the normal parasympathetic and sympathetic regulation, which can be detected using heart rate variability (HRV). [22][23][24][25] HRV is a non-invasive tool for evaluating autonomic function by measuring beat-to-beat differences in R-R intervals. 26 It is known that low HRV is an independent predictor of cardiovascular mortality and sudden cardiac death, is related to higher skinfold thickness, higher body mass index (BMI), higher body fat percentages, and lower levels of physical activity.…”

Background: Obesity is a major public health issue globally which is intrinsically linked to reduced heart rate variability (HRV). Physical inactivity and reduced resting HRV are linked to an increased risk of coronary heart disease, while athletes have a greater HRV. However, the exact correlation between physical activity and HRV remains uncertain. This systematic review aims to collect, report, and critically assess the current scientific literature about the association between physical activity and HRV in individuals with higher weight and obesity. Methods: A systematic search was carried out in electronic databases (Medline/PubMed, SCOPUS and CINAHL Plus) to retrieve studies that evaluated the relationship between physical activity and HRV in individuals with higher weight and obesity. Case-control, longitudinal/cohort, cross-sectional and observational studies were included. Using a critical narrative approach, information about the HRV, and physical activity was extracted and synthesized. The study was registered in PROSPERO: CRD42020208018 on October 9 2020. Results: After removing duplicates, 980 title/abstract records were checked for eligibility, and 12 papers were finally included in the narrative synthesis. The included studies contained physical activity as well as HRV in adults with higher weight or obesity with or without comorbidities. A negative relationship between moderate to vigorous physical activity and HRV indices had been found in two studies. There was also a negative relationship between sedentary time and HF (p = 0.049) and LF/HF (p = 0.036), as well as a positive relationship between sedentary time and LF (p = 0.014). Also dose-response association was found between vigorous exercise and higher SDNN, LF power, and HF power in one of the studies. Conclusions: This systematic review revealed a wide range of responses to physical activity and HRV; however, the current evidence uses a variety of approaches to objectively assess physical activity and measure HRV with different equipment.

IntroductionObesity is a chronic relapsing disease process and serious public health concern that can lead to chronic diseases, medical complications and a higher risk of disability. Another significant feature of obesity is dysfunction in cardiac autonomic function, which leads to changes in parasympathetic and sympathetic regulation, which can be measured using heart rate variability (HRV). The objective of this review is to estimate the extent to which exercise doses impacts on HRV among individuals living with overweight and obesity class I and II.Methods and analysisA systematic literature search will be performed using PubMed/Medline, Scopus, EMBASE, ProQuest, CINAHL, Web of Science and the Cochrane Library for articles dating from 1965 to December 2021. Inclusion criteria include studies designed as parallel-arm randomised trials, enrolling adolescent and adult individuals with overweight (body mass index, BMI≥25 to ≤29.9) and obesity (class I BMI: 30–34.9 and class II BMI: 35–39.9) undergoing aerobic or resistance training or concurrent exercise training. For data synthesis, sensitivity analysis, subgroup analysis and risk of bias assessment, Stata V.13.0 software will be used.Ethics and disseminationFormal ethical approval is not required. This systematic review will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal.PROSPERO registration numberCRD42019104154.
