Objectives : This study was designed to research whether HRV can yield a suitable diagnosis for activity of autonomic nerve system on functional dyspepsia. Methods : The testing of HRV was carried out at the Oriental Medical Center of Dong-Eui University with the participation of 28 functional dyspepsia patients, 25 dyspepsia caused by organic disease patients and 33 control group people. We checked HRV of the three groups for 5 minutes and compared HRV index(frequency domain analysis: HF, LF, VLF, LF/HF Ratio, TP) between groups. Results were as follows : 1. In the frequency domain analysis, HF, LF, VLF, and TP were significantly lower than the control group in the functional dyspepsia patients and dyspepsia caused by organic disease groups. HF, LF, VLF, LF/HF ratio, and TP were not significantly different between functional dyspepsia group and dyspepsia caused by organic disease group. 2. Age in dyspepsia patient group was significantly higher than in the control group. 3. In the frequency domain analysis, LF, VLF, and TP were significantly lower in the functional dyspepsia group than the control group in age 20-30 years. HF, LF, VLF, LF/HF ratio, and TP were not significantly different between the control group and dyspepsia caused by organic disease group in ages 20-30 years. HF, LF, VLF, LF/HF ratio, and TP were not significantly different between functional dyspepsia group and dyspepsia caused by organic disease group in age 20-30 years. Conclusion : According to this study, autonomic nerve system and parasympathetic nerve system decreased more in the functional dyspepsia patient group compared with the control group.

Objectives: Acupuncture treatments are safe and effective for a wide variety of diseases involving autonomic dysregulation. Heart rate variability (HRV) is a noninvasive method for assessing sympathovagal balance. The low frequency/high frequency (LF/HF) spectral power ratio is an index of sympathovagal influence on heart rate and of cardiovascular health. This study tests the hypothesis that from rest to 30% to 50% of peak oxygen consumption, the nonlinear Conte-Zbilut-Federici (CZF) method of computing the LF/HF ratio is a more reliable index of changes in the HRV than linear methods are. Methods: The subjects of this study were 10 healthy young adults. Electrocardiogram RR intervals were measured during 6-minute periods of rest and aerobic exercise on a cycle ergometer at 30% and 50% of peak oxygen consumption ($VO_{2peak}$). Results: The frequency domain CZF computations of the LF/HF ratio and the time domain computations of the standard deviation of normal-to-normal intervals (SDNN) decreased sequentially from rest to 30% $VO_{2peak}$ (P < 0.001) to 50% $VO_{2peak}$ (P < 0.05). The SDNN and the CZF computations of the LF/HF ratio were positively correlated (Pearson's r = 0.75, P < 0.001). fast Fourier transform (FFT), autoregressive (AR) and Lomb periodogram computations of the LF/HF ratio increased only from rest to 50% $VO_{2peak}$. Conclusion: Computations of the LF/HF ratio by using the nonlinear CZF method appear to be more sensitive to changes in physical activity than computations of the LF/HF ratio by using linear methods. Future studies should determine whether the CZF computation of the LF/HF ratio improves evaluations of pharmacopuncture and other treatment modalities.

Objectives : This study was performed to investigate the effect of acupuncture at Yintang point(EX-$HN_3$) on heart rate variability in healthy adults with mental stress. Methods : 38 healthy volunteers(sham point group : 19, Yintang point group 19) participated in this study. The study was established by randomized trial. After 10 minutes rest period, mental stress was provided for 10 minutes. HRV was recorded before and after stress. And then simple acupuncture was applied at sham or Yintang point for 15 minutes. We measured HRV 3 times: before and after stress, and after acupuncture. Results : In sham point group, LF norm and HF norm changed significantly after mental stress. In Yintang point group, LF, HF, LF norm, HF norm and LF/HF showed a significant change after mental stress. In sham point group, all indicators were not affected after acupuncture. In Yintang point group, HF norm decreased significantly. LF, LF norm and LF/HF increased significantly. There were significant differences between two groups(p<0.05). Conclusions : The results suggest that acupuncture at Yintang point(EX-$HN_3$) can regulate and prevent the alteration of autonomic nerve system by mental stress.

스트레스는 자율신경계 반응의 변화를 수반하며, 특히 심박변이도 지표는 스트레스에 의한 자율신경계의 활동을 반영하는 양적 지표로 사용된다. 본 연구에서는 스트레스 완화를 위한 산소와 색채 조명의 복합 자극이 제시되는 동안 자율신경계 반응의 변화를 확인하였다. 42명의 실험참가자는 지난 2주 동안 경험한 스트레스에 대한 증상들을 스트레스 반응 척도에 평가하였다. 스트레스 평가 후, 실험참가자는 복합 자극을 제시받았고, 자극 제시 전과 후, 그리고 자극이 제시되는 동안 심전도 신호가 기록되었다. 자극 조건은 30% 농도의 산소와 백색 조명, 산소와 주황색 조명과 산소와 파란색 조명의 조합의 세 가지로 구성되었다. 심박률(HR), R-R간격의 표준편차(SDNN), 연속한 R-R 간격 차이 값의 평균제곱근(RMSSD)과 심박변이도의 저주파 성분(LF), 고주파 성분(HF), 그리고 LF와 HF의 비율을 심박변이도 지표로 추출하였다. 이들 지표는 자극 제시 전과 후의 평균을 비교하는데 활용되었다. 결과는 자극 조건이 제시되고 난 후, HR과 LF/HF ratio의 유의한 감소를 보여주었다. 특히, 산소와 파란색 조명이 제시된 조건에서 다른 두 조건보다 유의하게 큰 RMSSD와 HF의 증가 및 LF/HF ratio의 감소가 나타났다. 이는 30% 농도의 산소와 파란색 조명의 조건이 부교감신경의 활성화에 의한 자율신경의 균형을 유발하여 스트레스 이완에 가장 효과적임을 보여주었다.

Objective : To evaluate autonomic nerve balance and sympathetic nerve activity in patients with inner ear dysfunction as examined by heart rate variability(HRV) Research Methods and Procedures : One hundred and twenty three patients(between 15 to 59 years old) who visited Dept. of Oriental medical Opthalmology & Otolaryngology, Kyunghee university and had an examination of HRV test, were selected as subjects of our study. We checked items of HRV test(such as SDNN, RMSSD, LF, HF, TP, norm-LF, norm-HF, LF/HF ratio), and analyzed time and frequency domain differences between three groups classified as tinnitus, hearing loss and vertigo. And we compared HRV items(such as SDNN,RMSSD, TP and LF/HF ratio) with standard levels. Results and Conclusion : Our results showed no significant differences between three groups in HRV items except for mean heart rate. Patients with inner ear dysfunction showed significant lower TP than 2000$(ms^{2})$(p <0.001) and significant higher LF/HF ratio than 1.5(p=0.003). So we suggest that patients with inner ear dysfunctions such as tinnitus, vertigo and hearing loss, have sympathetic hypertonus and inactivity of autonomic nerve regulation.

This study was to know the effects of massage on the back region in order to reduce stress in middle age women. To investigate the effects of massage to the stress levels of middle aged women, we evaluated blood pressure (BP), heart rate variability (HRV), and ultrasonography before and after back massage. The blood pressure after massage was reduced when compared to that of pre-massage. The HRV spectrum analysis was used Frequency domain analysis such as Mean HRV, normalized low frequency (norm LF), norm high frequency (norm HF), and LF/HF ratio. Post-massage BP tended to be low, but not statistical significant. After Massage, the Mean HRV, norm LF, and LF/HF ratio were significantly reduced, while norm HF was significantly increased as compared with pre-massage. The muscle layer and fat layer were significantly diminished by massage. The study was suggested that massage may be an effective treatment for relief of stress.

Purpose：The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of transcutaneous electrical stimulation on autonomic nervous system using heart rate variability analysis. Methods：31 subjects were evaluated with HRV before and after a single high-frequency TENS for 15minutes treatment. The standard deviation of all the normal RR-interval(SDNN) and lower frequency/high frequency ratio(LF/HF ratio) were recorded with TAS-9. Results：After single TENS treatment, autonomic adaptation as analyzed by SDNN was increased from $42.47\pm12.96$ to $4.43\pm16.76$(p>0.05) and autonomic balance as analyzed by LF/HF ratio was increased from $1.4\pm0.45$ to $1.45\pm0.41$(p>0.05). Conclusion：In this study, SDNN and LF/HF ratio changed in health young students as a result of single TENS treatment. But there is no significant difference between pre-treatment and post-treatment of SDNN and LF/HF ratio.
