Skin Sympathetic Nerve Activity Driver Extraction through Non-Negative Sparse Decomposition [PDF]

arXiv
In recent years, skin sympathetic nerve activity (SKNA) extracted from electrocardiogram has gained attention as a novel noninvasive measure of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), while electrodermal activity (EDA) has long served this purpose.

Frailty determinants in heart failure: Inflammatory markers, cognitive impairment and psychosocial interaction

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to identify factors associated with frailty in heart failure (HF) patients, focusing on demographic, biochemical and health‐related variables. It also explored the correlation between frailty and comorbidities such as malnutrition, cognitive impairment and depression, assessing how these factors interact to influence ...

Association of baseline eGFR and incident heart failure on patients receiving intensive blood pressure treatment

ESC Heart Failure, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims We aim to elucidate the association of baseline eGFR and incident heart failure on patients receiving intensive BP treatment. Methods and results A post hoc analysis was conducted on the SPRINT database. Multivariab le Cox regression and interaction restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis were performed to investigate the interaction ...

Simultaneous monitoring of activity and heart rate variability in depressed patients: A pilot study using a wearable monitor for 3 consecutive days

Neuropsychopharmacology Reports, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 457-467, December 2022., 2022
By using a wearable sensor we examined 3‐dimensional acceleration and heart rate variability (HRV) simultaneously in depressive episode of mood disorders. We found reduced activity and altered HRV indices in depressed patients, compared with healthy participants, particularly in males. Moreover, we found that sympathetic load during sleep significantly

Sympathetic motor neuron dysfunction is a missing link in age-associated sympathetic overactivity

eLife
Overactivity of the sympathetic nervous system is a hallmark of aging. The cellular mechanisms behind this overactivity remain poorly understood, with most attention paid to likely central nervous system components.

Modeling cell differentiation in neuroblastoma: insights into development, malignancy, and treatment relapse [PDF]

arXiv
Neuroblastoma is a paediatric extracranial solid cancer that arises from the developing sympathetic nervous system and is characterised by an abnormal distribution of cell types in tumours compared to healthy infant tissues. In this paper, we propose a new mathematical model of cell differentiation during sympathoadrenal development.
