The oxytocin-modulated brain circuit that synchronizes heart rate with breathing

2023-09-27

Abstract excerpt

The variation in heart rate in phase with breathing, called respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), is cardio-protective 1,2 . RSA amplitude provides an index of health and physical fitness used both clinically, and by the broader population using “smart” watches. Relaxation and positive socio-emotional states can amplify RSA 3 , yet the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, we identify a hypothalamus-...
