Assessment of the Effects of Pranayama/Alternate Nostril Breathing on the Parasympathetic Nervous System in Young Adults [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2013 Background and Aim: Pranayama, the art of breath control, is considered to be the heart of yogic exercises. The present study was performed with the aim of evaluating the effect of Pranayama/ Alternate Nostril Breathing (A.N.B.) on the parasympathetic

Autonomic Nervous System Activity During a Speech Task
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019 Previous research has reported that different coping types (active or passive) are required depending on the stress-inducing task. The aim of this study was to examine the autonomic nervous response during speech tasks that require active coping, by ...

The mind body problem, part three: ascension of sexual function to cerebral level [PDF]
, 2016 Physiologically, the somatic nervous system intervenes in external interaction between the body and environment, while autonomic nervous system ensures the functioning of internal organs.

Parasympathetic Nervous Activity Responses to Different Resistance Training Systems [PDF]
International Journal of Sports Medicine, 2020 AbstractThe assessment of parasympathetic nervous activity and psychophysiological responses infers the stress imposed by different resistance training systems. Therefore, we compare the effects of different sets configurations, with similar volume (~60 repetitions), on heart rate variability indices and internal training load.

Parasympathetic functions in children with sensory processing disorder. [PDF]
, 2010 The overall goal of this study was to determine if parasympathetic nervous system (PsNS) activity is a significant biomarker of sensory processing difficulties in children. Several studies have demonstrated that PsNS activity is an important regulator of

Variability of the Heart Rhythm as an Additional Marker for Determining Vegetative Functions in Patients with Chronic Cerebral Ischemia [PDF]
, 2018 Aim. Practical cardiology is in constant search for non-invasive vascular risk markers. Heart rhythm reflects the body\u27s response to various stimuli of the external and internal environment. Heart rate variability (HRV) has a prognostic and diagnostic

A thermodynamic model of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems [PDF]
Autonomic Neuroscience, 2003 In light of the nonequilibrium thermodynamics by I. Prigogine, the autonomic nervous system as a whole may be viewed as a dissipative structure progressively assembled in the course of evolution, plastically and rhythmically interfaced between forebrain, internal and external environments, to regulate energy, matter and information exchanges.

Lateral Habenula Regulates Cardiovascular Autonomic Responses via the Serotonergic System in Rats
Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2021 The lateral habenula (LHb) plays essential roles in behavioral responses to stressful events. Stress is tightly linked to autonomic responses such as cardiovascular responses, yet how the LHb regulates these responses is not well understood.

In search of a standardized protocol for parasympathetic nervous system activation [PDF]
, 2020 While endocrine research strongly benefits from standardized stressors, no established protocol focuses on parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) activation. To maintain health, functioning regenerative systems are likely as important as functioning stress systems. Thus, the identification of PNS activating paradigms is needed.
