Robustness of Basal Heart Rate against Declining Physical Activity Analysis of Physiological Big Data

To examine the influences of reduced physical activity on the circadian architecture of heart rate, we performed big data analysis on the effect of relative time spent in the lying position on the timing and level of basal heart rate (BHR, 24-h minimum heart rate). In the big data of simultaneously recorded 24-h electrocardiogram and triaxial acceleration in 12,530 men and 17,529 women, BHR was found to occur at the median [IQR] of 04:07 [01:35-...
