Association of physical capacity with heart rate variability based on a short-duration measurement of resting pulse rate in older adults with obesity.
Obesity can limit physical capacity and lower physical activity levels in elderly people. Low physical activity levels may be mediated by autonomic dysfunction with decreased heart rate variability (HRV). However, the relationship between autonomic dysfunction and low physical capability remains unc...
