Implication

May support adult HRV reference values from age 8 in Japanese youth; leaves open generalizability and prospective validation.

Structured PICO

Population

136 healthy Japanese individuals between 8 and 20 years (48 boys between 8 and 14 years; 88 girls between 8 and 20 years)

Intervention

Resting heart rate variability (HRV) assessment in a relaxing supine position with periodic breathing (0.25 Hz)

Outcome

Frequency-domain analysis of short-term, stationary R-R intervals including low-frequency (LF), high-frequency (HF), HF to total power, and LF/HF ratiosurrogate

Cardiac autonomic nervous system control in Japanese individuals appears to mature and become compatible with adulthood before approximately 10 years of age.
