Sleep bruxism events detection system is presented, based on integrated, synchronized on-line analysis of EMG signal, heart rave variability (HRV) obtained from ECG recordings as well as sympatho-vagal balance estimated in real time as an possible early indicator of upcoming bruxism episodes. As an relative reliable alternative for very complex systems, only for clinical environment usage with audio and video recordings a pilot study toward elaboration of compact, comfortable for home usage device with early bruxism detection algorithms was carried out, preliminary tested on 10h sleeping registrations from group of 12 patients, clinically characterized by experts as Bruxers. As a result a set of decision rules regarding simultaneous monotonic increase of heart rate with significant increase of EMG signal amplitude during bruxism episode was elaborated. But a most promising observation, which can be useful for earlier prediction of upcoming bruxism episode seems to be a monotonic increase of LF/HF ratio in HRV power spectrum components, expressing sympatho-vagal balance of autonomous nervous system, which according to our assumptions take basic low level role in bruxism phenomena trigger and control.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate cardiac autonomic modulation using short-term heart rate variability (HRV) and compare it among frailty statuses in older Indian adults.
Methods: A total of 210 subjects aged 60 years and above were recruited into three groups: frail ( = 70), pre-frail ( = 70), and non-frail ( = 70) from the outpatient department of Geriatric Medicine at a tertiary care hospital in India. Frailty status was assessed using the Rockwood frailty index (FI) criteria.

Autonomic control of heart rate is well known in adult subjects, but limited data are available on the development of the heart rate control during childhood and adolescence. Continuous 12-lead electrocardiograms were recorded in 1045 healthy children and adolescents (550 females) aged 4 to 19 years during postural manoeuvres involving repeated 10-min supine, unsupported sitting, and unsupported standing positions. In each position, heart rate was measured, and heart rate variability indices were evaluated (SDNN, RMSSD, and high (HF) and low (LF) frequency components were obtained).

: The relationship between heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV) indices has been repeatedly studied in adults but limited data are available on the relationship in paediatric populations. : Continuous 12-lead electrocardiograms were recorded in 1016 healthy children and adolescents (534 females) aged 4 to 19 years during postural manoeuvres with rapid changes between 10-min positions of supine → sitting → standing → supine → standing → sitting → supine. In each position, the averaged RR interval was measured together with four HRV indices, namely the SDNN, RMSSD, quasi-normalised high-frequency components (qnHF), and the proportions of low- and high-frequency components (LF/HF).

Heart rate is under constant autonomic influence but the development of the influence in children is not fully understood. Continuous electrocardiograms were obtained in 1045 healthy school-age children (550 females) during postural provocations with body position changes between supine, sitting, standing, supine, standing, sitting and supine (in this order), 10 min in each position with position changes within 20 s. Heart rate was measured in each position and speed of heart rate changes between positions were assessed by regressions of rates versus timing of individual cardiac cycles.

We studied the regulation dynamics of cerebral blood velocity (CBv) at middle cerebral arteries (MCA) in response to spontaneous changes of arterial blood pressure (ABP), termed dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA), and end-tidal CO as proxy for blood CO tension, termed dynamic vasomotor reactivity (DVR), by analyzing time-series data collected at supine rest from 36 patients with Type-2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) and 22 age/sex-matched non-diabetic controls without arterial hypertension. Our analysis employed a robust dynamic modeling methodology that utilizes Principal Dynamic Modes (PDM) to estimate subject-specific dynamic transformations of spontaneous changes in ABP and end-tidal CO (viewed as two "inputs") into changes of CBv at MCA measured via Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (viewed as the "output"). The quantitative results of PDM analysis indicate significant alterations in T2DM of both DVR and dCA in terms of two specific PDM contributions that rise to significance (p < 0.
