Analysis of HAM-D Scores on Cognitive Functions and Heart Rate Variability in Patients with Major Depressive Disorder.
Niger Med J
January 2025
Department of Physiology, RUHS College of Medical Sciences, India.
Background: Previous research has shown that Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is accompanied by severe impairments in cognitive and autonomic processes, which may linger even when mood symptoms recover. This study aimed to analyse the relationship between depression severity, as measured by the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D), and how it affects heart rate variability (HRV) and cognitive function in patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD).
Methodology: The cross-sectional study was conducted at RUHS College of Medical Sciences and Associated Hospitals, Jaipur, from July 2022 to January 2023 on 90 subjects having major depressive disorder (MDD) of either sex in the 20-40 age group using the Hamilton score for depression (HAM D), Heart Rate Variability (HRV) measurements, and a battery of cognitive tests.
Physiological effects of hand grip and cold pressor tests in young Saudi adults.

Department of Basic Sciences, College of Science and Health Professions (COSHP), King Saud bin Abdulaziz University for Health Sciences (KSAU-HS), Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
The risk of cardiovascular disease differs among various ethnic groups, highlighting disparities in cardiovascular health among different populations. While multiple studies from other countries have looked at changes in physiological parameters during autonomic function tests like isometric handgrip and cold pressor tests, no correlational research has been done in Saudi Arabia. This lacuna underscores the importance of examining the relationship between cardiorespiratory parameters in young Saudi Arabian individuals during these tests.

Plast Surg (Oakv)
February 2025
Department of Hand Surgery, Lausanne University Hospital and University of Lausanne, Lausanne, Switzerland.
Microsurgical learning is a difficult and stressful process, requiring self-control to achieve relaxation. The purpose of this study is to evaluate peripheral and central nervous system relaxation during microsurgical training. This cohort study included ten medical students with no previous experience in microsurgery.

Institut des Neurosciences Cellulaires et Intégratives, CNRS UPR 3212 / Université de Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France; CHU Strasbourg, Médecine et Réanimation du nouveau-né, Service de Pédiatrie 2, Pôle médico chirurgical Pédiatrique de Hautepierre, Avenue Molière, 67091 Strasbourg, FR, France.
Background: Care procedures for preterm infants can induce stress that may disrupt homeostasis, possibly altering cerebral perfusion or oxygenation. We evaluated the physiological and cerebral oxygenation changes during the routine care of very preterm infants.
Methods: We analyzed the changes in heart and respiratory rates and in systemic and regional cerebral oxygen saturation of 27 very preterm infants, defining three care periods of 5 min each: 30 min before care, 30 min during care, and 30 min after care.
Acute effect of aerobic exercise on inhibitory control and task-related heart rate variability in preadolescent children.
Physiol Behav
January 2025
University of Basel, Department of Sports, Exercise and Health, Grosse Allee 6, 4052 Basel, Switzerland.
Objectives: To investigate whether a single session of aerobic exercise improves inhibitory control in preadolescent children and whether this effect is mediated by changes in parasympathetic activity.
Design: In this experimental study, an intervention and control group were pair-matched by age, sex and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity.
Method: 114 participants either completed a 20-min moderately-intense exercise bout on a cycling ergometer or watched a 20-min video.
