Note. HRV = heart rate variability, Mean RR = average of all RR interval, SDDN = standard deviation of the RR interval, RMSSD = the square roof of the mean squared difference of successive RR interval, TP = total power, LF = low frequency, HF = high frequency, CON = control group, EXP = experimental group. //
