Physiological time-series analysis using approximate entropy and sample entropy

Joshua Richman, J. Randall Moorman · 1 Jun 2000

Entropy, as it relates to dynamical systems, is the rate of information production. Methods for estimation of the entropy of a system represented by a time series are not, however, well suited to analysis of the short and noisy data sets encountered in cardiovascular and other biological studies. Pincus introduced approximate entropy (ApEn), a set…

Assessment of autonomic function in humans by heart rate spectral analysis

Bruce Pomeranz, Robert Macaulay, Marie A. Caudill et al. · 1 Jan 1985

Spectral analysis of spontaneous heart rate fluctuations were assessed by use of autonomic blocking agents and changes in posture. Low-frequency fluctuations (below 0.12 Hz) in the supine position are mediated entirely by the parasympathetic nervous system. On standing, the low-frequency fluctuations increase and are jointly mediated by the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. High-frequency fluctuations,…

Inhibition of myocardial injury by ischemic postconditioning during reperfusion: comparison with ischemic preconditioning

Zhi‐Qing Zhao, Joel S. Corvera, Michael E. Halkos et al. · 1 Aug 2003

Ischemic preconditioning (Pre-con) is an adaptive response triggered by a brief ischemia applied before a prolonged coronary occlusion. We tested the hypothesis that repetitive ischemia applied during early reperfusion, i.e., postconditioning (Post-con), is cardio-protective by attenuating reperfusion injury. In anesthetized open-chest dogs, the left anterior descending artery (LAD) was occluded for 60 min and reperfused…

Assessment of flow-mediated dilation in humans: a methodological and physiological guideline

Dick H. J. Thijssen, Mark A. Black, Kyra E. Pyke et al. · 15 Oct 2010

Endothelial dysfunction is now considered an important early event in the development of atherosclerosis, which precedes gross morphological signs and clinical symptoms. The assessment of flow-mediated dilation (FMD) was introduced almost 20 years ago as a noninvasive approach to examine vasodilator function in vivo. FMD is widely believed to reflect endothelium-dependent and largely nitric oxide-mediated…

A model for human ventricular tissue

Kirsten ten Tusscher, Denis Noble, Penelope J. Noble et al. · 12 Mar 2004

The experimental and clinical possibilities for studying cardiac arrhythmias in human ventricular myocardium are very limited. Therefore, the use of alternative methods such as computer simulations is of great importance. In this article we introduce a mathematical model of the action potential of human ventricular cells that, while including a high level of electrophysiological detail,…
