Abstract Heart rate is mainly determined by pacemaker current generated in the SA node. It, in turn, is regulated by autonomic nervous system. Sympathetic stimulation enhances chronotropic, ionotropic and dromotropic activity via α and β receptor activation whereas, parasympathetic stimulation causes reverse effect on heart via the M2 receptors. Varied input from these two branches of the ANS produces change in heart rate. So, HRV, therefore, is the change in the time interval between two consecutive heartbeats. In other words, HRV is the time difference between a given heart beat to the mean duration of heartbeat. Like all other organs of the body, heart is also susceptible to aging and diseases. These conditions influence heart rate and also HRV. Today, HRV has invited much investigation and debate. Electronic databases Google Scholar , IMSEAR (Index Medicus for South-East Asia Region), Scopemed and MEDLINE/ PubMed were extensively explored with key words “HRV” or “Heart Rate Variability” from earliest possible date (1973) to December, 2016 and the available information summarized. Different aspects of HRV have been covered including historical background, HRV Analysis Methods, Interpretation of HRV, software’s used for HRV recording, importance of HRV measurement, HRV in varying conditions, drugs etc. HRV offers a relatively simple, well-tolerated, and inexpensive method for studying physiological and pathophysiological processes in a noninvasive manner. However, there are several important challenges in this area of study. There are a number of confounding variables which contribute to HRV data collection and interpretation open to question. Again, one should not compare one’s HRV with others, since HRV is affected by numerous internal and external factors, namely, age, lifestyle, hormones, body functions etc. Keywords: Heart rate; Respiratory Sinus Arrhythmias; Cardiac heart beat rate is 60 beats per minute, each heart beat may not have diseases; Medications precisely occurred in each second. It may be such that one heart beat might have occurred at 960 ms and the other at 1112 ms. Difference of Introduction each with the “mean value” say 1000 ms gives HRV of 40 ms and 12 ms respectively for those two beats. HRV, thus, refers to beat-to-beat Heart rate is mainly determined by pacemaker current generated in changes in the heart rate [7]. the SA node [1]. It is regulated by ANS, which is mediated through nucleus tractus solitaries (NTS) situated in the brainstem (medulla). Other names of HRV are inter-beat intervals, R-R intervals, N-N NTS collects sensory information from chemoreceptors, baroreceptors, intervals, heart period variability, RR variability, cycle length variability muscle afferents, circulating hormones [2] and send autonomic etc. This variability is perfectly normal and is, infact, desirable. If the (involuntary) control to heart and blood vessels via sympathetic and heartbeat intervals are constant, HRV is considered to be low; and if parasympathetic nerves. Sympathetic stimulation enhances the length varies, then HRV is considered to be high [8]. chronotropic, ionotropic and dromotropic activity via α and β receptor Like all other organs of the body, heart is also susceptible to aging activation whereas, parasympathetic stimulation causes reverse effect and diseases. These conditions influence the heart rate and also the on heart via the M2 receptors. Variation in the output of these two heart rate variability. This, variation in HRV may point out current branches of the autonomic system produces variability in chronicity of disease or impending cardiac and other systemic diseases. Thus, the heart [3,4]. Thus, this variability in heart rate is a physiologic measurement of HRV offer a prognostic plus diagnostic tool in phenomenon and is a reflection of the cardiac modulation by the ANS different forms of illnesses [9–13]. [5].Lately, prefrontal cortical activities have also been linked to modulate heart rate [6]. Today, HRV has become the subject of active investigation and debate [14,15]. So, this is the authors’ endeavor to summarize an So, HRV is a variation in the time interval between heartbeats. In extensive literature review on HRV and its potential uses presented in other words, HRV is the time difference between a given heart beat to different electronic publications. the mean duration of heartbeat. It is different from Heart beat rate.

  • Neuropharmacology of Appetite Regulation
    Proc. Nutr. SOC.(1978), 37, 193 I93 Neuropharmacology of appetite regulation By A. M. BARRETT,Department of Pharmacology, heds University, Leeds LS2 9SL Patient consultations concerning weight problems are frequent but the over-all response to drug treatment is poor. There are many so-called anorexic drugs but the range of unwanted actions is even larger and often with distressing results. The costs to the National Health Service of doctors prescribing appetite-suppressant drugs exceeded E3.5 m in 1975 but there is little evidence of proportional clinical benefit. Much of the pharmacological evidence relating to the central regulation of appetite derives from experimental studies with these same compounds. This review must therefore be read with two admonitions in mind: (I) there is no guarantee that the neuropharmacology described is relevant to the control of appetite in man, and (2) the biological models employed to predict anorexic activity in man are less than adequate. The governing role of the central nervous system in feeding behaviour is firmly established and the majority of studies identify the hypothalamus as the most important area. The stereotaxic instrument has provided the means of creating discrete lesions and permitting localized electrical or chemical stimulation within this region, the results affording direct and convincing evidence. Yet it is salutary to note that physiologists working in widely difkrent fields have come to similar conclusions about the location of their particular regulating centre. It is evident therefore that electrolytic lesions, electical stimulation or the placement of specific chemical substances may influence a wide variety of physiological variables of which feeding behaviour is but one.

In pursuing its objectives of promoting South solidarity, South-South cooperation, and coordinated participation by developing countries in international forums, the South Centre has full intellectual independence. It prepares, publishes and distributes information, strategic analyses and recommendations on international economic, social and political matters of concern to the South. For detailed information about the South Centre see its website www.southcentre.int. The South Centre enjoys support and cooperation from the governments of the countries of the South and is in regular working contact with the Non-Aligned Movement and the Group of 77 and China. The Centre’s studies and position papers are prepared by drawing on the technical and intellectual capacities existing within South governments and institutions and among individuals of the South. Through working group sessions and wide consultations which involve experts from different parts of the South, and sometimes from the North, common problems of the South are studied and experience and knowledge are shared.
