Why the study?
Is bradycardia in adolescent anorexia nervosa associated with cardiac vagal hyperactivity?
Is bradycardia in adolescent anorexia nervosa associated with cardiac vagal hyperactivity?
Cardiac vagal hyperactivity, partly explained by enhanced baroreflex sensitivity, significantly contributes to bradycardia in adolescent anorexia nervosa.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Supports vagal hyperactivity as contributor to bradycardia in adolescent anorexia; leaves open causality and reversibility with refeeding.
Kollai et al. (1994) studied this question.
