Evidence of differences in diurnal electrodermal, temperature and heart rate patterns by mental health status in free-living data by Xin Liu, Nicholas B Allen, Ming-Zher Poh, Daniel McDuff, Isaac Galatzer-Levy, Seamus Thomson, Andrew Barakat, Conor Heneghan, Samy Abdel-Ghaffar, Jacob Sunshine, Lindsey Sunden, John B Hernandez, Allen Jiang, Ari Winbush, Benjamin Nelson

“…We use a non-linear cosinor fitting method to estimate the difference in mesor, amplitude and phase, between the diurnal rhythms in heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV) root mean square of successive differences, EDA, skin temperature and steps.Findings Subjects who exhibited elevated depressive and anxiety symptoms had higher tonic EDA, skin temperature and heart rate, despite not engaging in greater physical activity, compared with those that were not depressed or anxious. …”

Exploring patterns of heart rate variability in major depressive disorder: A short-term study in Jaipur, Rajasthan by Sunidhi sharma, Sudhanshu Kacker, Neha Saboo

“…Background: Individuals suffering from major depressive disorder (MDD) frequently have abnormal heart rate variability (HRV) patterns. They have decreased HRV, which implies that there is less variance between subsequent heartbeats. …”
