Does heart rate variability serve as a diagnostic biomarker and predictor of relapse in patients with anorexia nervosa?
Heart rate variability has potential as a diagnostic biomarker and tool for tracking treatment response and relapse in anorexia nervosa, warranting further investigation.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
HRV not ready for clinical use in anorexia nervosa; leaves open its biomarker value pending prospective studies.
Future studies on HRV should elucidate its role as a diagnostic biomarker for AN as well as its responsiveness with serial measurement to track response rates and predict relapse.
