我們的研究團隊多年來專注於心率變異（Heart Rate Variability, HRV）的研究，深入探討其在醫學與社會健康議題中的多元應用。
HRV是一種透過頻譜分析連續心跳變化的指標，能夠量化交感與副交感神經功能，具有高度臨床價值，不僅能預測心血管疾病風險，還可反映自律神經的運作狀態。團隊的研究成果涵蓋廣泛領域，包括：精神壓力對冠心病患者心肌缺血與心血管事件的影響、輪班與長工時對醫護人員身體機能的調節、藥物治療（如美沙酮療法）對海洛因依賴者的自律神經功能影響，以及年齡與充血性心臟衰竭對HRV的影響等。
我們的研究證實了HRV在精神病學、心理生理學及職場健康等領域的應用價值，並強調了性別差異、自律神經調節與人格特質間的關聯。此外，我們也探討了HRV在臨床精神藥物使用（如抗精神病藥物與抗膽鹼藥物）中的作用，並將HRV應用於評估健康相關生活品質與精神疾病患者的健康管理策略。
透過這些開創性的研究，我們為HRV在文化與醫療實務中的角色提供了重要見解，也推動了HRV作為診斷工具和健康指標的廣泛應用
