Utilizing Entropy to Systematically Quantify the Resting-Condition Baroreflex Regulation Function by Bo-Yuan Li, Xiao-Yang Li, Xia Lu, Rui Kang, Zhao-Xing Tian, Feng Ling

“…Therefore, the three-layer emergence is studied in this work, which is from physiological mechanisms to physiological indexes and then to BRF. On this basis, since the entropy in statistical physics macroscopically measures the fluctuations of system’s states, in this work, the principle of maximum entropy is adopted, and a new index called PhysioEnt is proposed to quantify the fluctuations of four physiological indexes, i.e., baroreflex sensitivity, heart rate, heart rate variability, and systolic blood pressure, which aims to represent BRF in the resting condition. …”
