We believe the overlooking of ergodicity has hindered the broad application of HRV probably much more than the other challenges that have been discussed regarding HRV, like analytical challenges associated with data variability, missing data and artifacts, and lack of theory for data inter...
The ECGenetics browser, which contains genome-wide summary statistics of every time-point of the complete cardiac cycle at a resolution of 500 Hz, was used to gain insights into the electrophysiological effect of the RHR genetic variants14. A total of 86 genetic variants were strongly associate...
Clinical presentation of congenital heart disease is heterogeneous, making identification of the disease-causing genes and their genetic pathways and mechanisms of action challenging. By using in vivo electrocardiography, transthoracic echocardiography a
filter with fc = 4 Hz and a cut-off frequency of 0.034 Hz. To correct the phase distortion introduced by a one-pass filter, a two-pass filter (forwards and reverse) was used to filter each of the signals. Noise, and missing values were removed using cubic Hermite spline interpolation [...
The aim of this study was to test the effectiveness of a collaborative-care intervention, for people with depression and diabetes/coronary heart disease in National Health Service (NHS) primary care, in which low-intensity psychological treatment services are delivered by the usual care provider - ...

Relevant deviations of the protocol were defined as errors in the assumption to the intervention arm, poor compliance with the use of technology, missed monitoring and the existence of missing data. Clinical trial withdrawal criteria have been defined as noncompliance with protocol requirements, presenc...
This could not be calculated in many studies because of missing or vague data and the lack of a clear gold standard of what a palliative care patient is. RADPAC-trained primary practitioners identified only 6% of patients with heart failure in a randomized controlled trial [62]. One year ...
