Generalized Poincare plots analysis of heart period dynamics in different physiological conditions: Trained vs. untrained men.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Recently we proposed a new method called generalized Poincaré plot (gPp) analysis which gave a new insight into the pattern of neurocaridac control. In this study we examined potential of gPp method to reveal changes in cardiac neural control in young athletes during three conditions: supine rest, running and relaxation, with respect to untrained subjects.

Methods

This method is based on the quantification of Pearson's correlation coefficients r(j, k), between symmetrical (j = k) and asymmetrical summed j previous and k following RR intervals up to the 100th order (j,k≤100).

Results

Differences between groups were obtained at all levels of this analysis. The main result is the significant difference of NAI, normalized index of asymmetry, between groups in r
