Popis: Deceleration capacity (DC) of heart rate is a novel index for evaluating the activity of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). We examined whether controlling the inspiration/expiration (I/E) ratio benefits the DC analysis based on a model-generated RR interval (RRI) database. A cardiovascular system model was adopted to simulate RRI time series. The model allows analyzing the role of sympathetic and vagal activities in the ANS. The respiratory pattern can be controlled in the model. Three hundred RRI time series with random sympathetic and vagal activities were simulated. According to the ratio between the sympathetic and vagal activities (S/V ratio), these subjects were categorized into a case group (S/V>1) and a control group (S/V
