  1. AC acceleration capacity of the heart rate, DC deceleration capacity of the heart rate, HF high-frequency power, LF low-frequency power, rMSSD the root mean square value of the standard deviations of the successive differences between adjacent normal RR intervals in the whole 24-h period, SDANN the standard deviation of the average normal RR intervals in all 5-min segments, SDNN the standard deviation of all normal RR intervals
