We were most interested to read the recent report by Licht et al. (1) on the impact of a variety of antidepressants on heart rate variability (HRV), a robust predictor of sudden cardiac death and future mortality. Longitudinal evidence was reported …
Heart rate variability (HRV) is reduced in patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). We examined the sensitivity of a new nonlinear parameter, the Complex Correlation Measure (CCM) in patients with depression. Two-minute ECG recordings at rest …
Background: Depression is associated with an increase in the likelihood of cardiac events; however, studies investigating the relationship between depression and heart rate variability (HRV) have generally focused on patients with cardiovascular …
