Introdução: Existem poucos estudos que evidenciam a manipulação vertebral relacionada à modulação autonômica cardíaca. Objetivo: Revisar a literatura sobre os efeitos da manipulação vertebral sobre a modulação autonômica cardíaca. Métodos: Foi realizada uma busca bibliográfica nas bases de dados da saúde Medline, Pubmed e Cinahl, no período correspondido entre setembro e novembro de 2014. Foram utilizados os descritores em inglês Spinal Manipulation, Cardiac Autonomic Modulation, Autonomic Nervous System, Heart Rate Variability, além de associações entre eles. Resultados: Foram encontrados 190 artigos, sendo excluídos 39 por serem repetidos, restando 151. Destes, 124 não se encaixaram nos critérios de inclusão e após leitura crítica e análise dos materiais foram selecionados 7 artigos. Grande parte dos estudos revelou que a manipulação da coluna, independente do segmento, demonstra alterações autonômicas, tanto em nível simpático quanto parassimpático. Conclusão: Existem diferentes metodologias para avaliação da modulação autonômica cardíaca, sendo a Variabilidade da Frequência cardíaca através do eletrocardiograma a mais utilizada. A manipulação vertebral exerceu influência, na maioria dos artigos, sobre a modulação autonômica cardíaca.Palavras-chave: manipulação da coluna, sistema nervoso autônomo, variabilidade da frequência cardíaca.

AbstractIntroduction It is known that physical exercise is beneficial and precipitates adjustments to the autonomic nervous system. However, the effect of exercise on cardiac autonomic modulation in children, despite its importance, is poorly investigated.Objective To bring together current information about the effects of exercise on heart rate variability in healthy and obese children.Methods The literature update was performed through a search for articles in the following databases; PubMed, PEDro, SciELO and Lilacs, using the descriptors “exercise” and “child” in conjunction with the descriptors “autonomic nervous system”, “sympathetic nervous system”, “parasympathetic nervous system” and also with no descriptor, but the key word of this study, “heart rate variability”, from January 2005 to December 2012.Results After removal of items that did not fit the subject of the study, a total of 9 articles were selected, 5 with healthy and 4 with obese children.Conclusion The findings suggest that exercise can act in the normalization of existing alterations in the autonomic nervous system of obese children, as well as serve as a preventative factor in healthy children, enabling healthy development of the autonomic nervous system until the child reaches adulthood.

The assessment of heart rate variability (HRV) by linear methods in conjunction with Poincaré plots can be useful for evaluating cardiac regulation by the autonomic nervous system and for the diagnosis and prognosis of heart disease in snakes. In this report, we describe an analysis of HRV in conscious adult corn snakes Pantherophis guttatus (P. guttatus).  The electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters were determined in adult corn snakes (8 females, 13 males) and used for HRV analysis, and the RR interval was analyzed by linear methods in the time and frequency domains. There was no sex-related difference in heart rate. However, significant differences were seen in the duration of the P, PR, and T waves and QRS complex; there was no difference in the QT interval. The values for the RR interval varied by 15.3% and 18.8% in male and female snakes, respectively, and there was considerable variation in the values for the high and low frequency domains. The changes in the time domain were attributed to regulation by the parasympathetic branch of the autonomic nervous system, in agreement with variations in the high and low frequency domains. The values for standard deviations 1 and 2 in Poincaré plots, as well as the values of the frequency domain, provide useful parameters for future studies of cardiac function in P. guttatus.

Abstract Background Quantitative assessment of individual body adaptability to physical training performed with the purposes of health maintenance is particularly necessary in the elderly age, to avoid the risk of overstrain induced by inappropriate exercises workload and physical stress. For that purpose, heart rate monitors and heart rate variability (HRV) analysis are nowadays commercially available. However, their reliability to guide individualized fitness training in elderly people needs to be tested, knowing that users might not have medical education. Objective To preliminary quantify autonomic nervous system (ANS) responses to graded physical effort and recovery in healthy elderly basing on the parasympathetic nervous system (PNSi), the sympathetic nervous system (SNSi) and the stress (STRi) indices, derived by short-term and time-varying HRV analysis. Methods ECG of a 75 healthy male subject was monitored, from April to November 2020, during three times/week training sessions with a professional bike–ergometer. Each session consisted of 10 minutes baseline rest, 5 minutes warm-up, 30 minutes work and 10 minutes recovery. According to age, the training workload was graded from low (65–75 watt/min), to moderate (75–85 watt/min), semi-intensive (85–95 watt/min) and intensive (95–110 watt/min). For this pilot study, ECG data of only 40 training sessions (10 sessions for each workload to evaluate reproducibility) were analyzed with Kubios Premium software (version 3.4.1), in the time (TD) and frequency (FD) domains, with nonlinear (NL) methods and with time-varying (TV) algorithms. Short-time HRV was calculated from 2-minutes intervals. The PNSi, SNSi and STRi induced by each workload were averaged and compared. Results Average values of PNSi, SNSi and STRi were significantly different (p<0.05) among training sessions carried out with different workloads (Table 1A) and among measurements obtained at rest, at every 5 minutes step of each 30 minutes training session, and at 1 and 5 minutes of recovery (Table 1B). Interestingly, the correlation between SNSi and STRi was strictly linear (R= 0,98), whereas that between PNSi and STRi was better fitted by a cubic function (R=0,82 with cubic vs 0.68 with linear function), when evaluated either as a function of the sessions' workloads (Figure 1A), or of four time-intervals of each training session (Figure 1B). PNSi and SNSi were inversely correlated, with cross-point at about 15 minutes of training and 75 watt/min workload. Conclusions The calculation of PNSi, SNSi and STRi from HRV analysis is an efficient method for quick and simplified quantitative assessment of dynamic ASN adaptation to effort-induced stress from HRV analysis. If confirmed, the method may be useful for safer and even remote monitoring of training/rehabilitation in elderly. However, more detailed evaluation of spectral and NL parameters may be necessary to interpret more complex patterns of abnormal cases. FUNDunding Acknowledgement Type of funding sources: None.
