Key result
Respiratory variability reflects key physiological and adaptive responses across mental and physical states.
Respiratory variability is a physiological index that reflects bodily responses to diverse environments and conditions, including emotional and physical states.
May support respiratory variability monitoring in emotional and psychiatric care; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before practice change.
Objectives In human, there is a diversity in the breathing pattern, for instance inspiratory and expiratory time, volume, breathing frequency, and breath-to-breath variation. Expecially, respiratory variability can provide important information about breathing regulation and physiological flexibility. it is significant to not only breathing index but also physiological index.Methods Thus this paper reviews the literature on respiratory variability with the aim of clinical application.Results We could find the interrelationships and respiratory variability between emotions, psychopathy, sighing, mental and physical activity.Conclusions As a result, respiratory variability can serve an important physiological index in the clinical area and reflects how our bodies act in diverse environments under various condition.

Kim et al. (2016) reported a review. Respiratory variability was evaluated. Respiratory variability serves as an important physiological index reflecting the body's adaptive responses to emotions, psychiatric conditions, sighing, and physical or mental activity.
