P <0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis results indicated that depression was independently and significantly related to the occurrence of post-infarction angina pectoris,ventricular fibrillation and cardiac death.SDNN,SDANN,RMNN and PNN50 as well as HF in depressive group were obviously reduced,whereas VLF,LF and LF/HF were remarkedly increased compared with non-depressive group( P <0.01 or 0.05).Correlation analysis found that depressive index was negatively related with SDNN,SDANN,RMNN,PNN50 and HF(P<0.01),and positively correlated with VLF,LF and LF/HF( P <0.01).Conclusion:Depression impacts adversely HRV,and was an independent risk factor of the short term prognosis of AMI patients.展开更多
