Heart Rate Variability and Autonomic Control

The paper analyzes electrodermal activity (EDA) using probability models to characterize its temporal structure and validate them with experimental data.

EEG-Beats automatically detects interbeat intervals and calculates HRV metrics from EEG-EKG signals, providing artifact-robust and synchronized HRV analysis.

This study shows that increased parasympathetic activity during sleep improves working memory in young adults, unlike during wake.

This study shows that astrocytes in the nucleus of the solitary tract modulate baroreflex sensitivity through calcium signaling and ATP release, influenced by 5-HT and glutamate.

The paper identifies a novel population of sensory neurons that regulate blood pressure through the autonomic nervous system.

The paper shows that eye movements and blinks are coupled to the cardiac cycle phases during visual search tasks.

The paper investigates how cardiac cycle phases and heart rate affect conscious somatosensory perception and finds higher detection during diastole with stronger cardiac deceleration after correct detections.

The paper identifies peripheral neural circuits regulating heart rate in mice using optogenetic and viral vector strategies, revealing distinct roles of cholinergic and noradrenergic neurons.

This study shows adrenergic agonists enhance intrinsic excitability of cardiac preganglionic neurons in the nucleus ambiguus via persistent sodium current.

This study examines how birth weight and body composition affect autonomic recovery of heart rate variability in children after aerobic exercise.

The paper shows that humans self-initiate visual stimuli during cardiac systole, suggesting active information sampling integrates heart-related signals without affecting memory performance.

This study shows that attentional focus modulates the heartbeat evoked potential (HEP), with higher HEP amplitudes during interoceptive attention compared to exteroceptive attention.

The paper examines how resting heart rate variability (HRV) relates to brain structure and function across different age groups, finding age-dependent changes in functional connectivity.

This study examines the relationship between autonomic nervous system activity and neural indices of selective attention in adults, finding associations between heart rate variability and pre-ejection period with ERP components.

The paper examines how individual differences in autonomic nervous system activity during cognitive tasks correlate with task-induced deactivation patterns in specific brain regions.

The paper examines how emotional arousal to novel sounds affects pupil dilation and ERP components, showing that sympathetic activation is linked to emotional responses.

This study compares neural responses to heartbeats between physically trained and sedentary young adults, finding differences in pre-stimulus processing that correlate with behavioral performance in the trained group.
