Task: Intent Identification
Input (English): We aimed to study heart rate time irreversibility--a nonlinear qualitative characteristics of heart rate variability indicating complexity of cardiac autonomic control at rest and in response to physiological stress (orthostasis) in never-treated major depressive disorder (MDD) adolescent female patients.', "We studied 20 MDD girls and 20 healthy age-matched girls at the age of 15 to 18 years. The ECG was recorded in supine position and in response to position change from lying to standing (orthostasis). Time irreversibility analysis was performed using Porta's (P%), Guzik's (G%) and Ehlers' (E) index. The depressive disorder severity was evaluated using Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) and Children's Depression Inventory (CDI).", "Resting heart rate time irreversibility indices (logG%, logP%, Ehlers' index) were significantly reduced in MDD female patients without significant differences in response to orthostasis in MDD girls compared to controls. No significant correlations between time irreversibility and MDD severity were observed.
