Heritability of cardiac vagal control in 24‐h heart rate variability recordings: Influence of ceiling effects at low heart rates

This study estimated the heritability of 24‐h heart rate variability ( HRV ) measures, while considering ceiling effects on HRV at low heart rates during the night. HRV was indexed by the standard deviation of all valid interbeat intervals ( SDNN ), the root mean square of differences between val…
