| Abstract | Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is a genetic disease which is characterized by painful episodes of vascular occlusions. In the present study, we investigated a potential contribution of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) in initiating such episodes. We observed prominent decreases in microvascular perfusion in response to spontaneous sighs, which may increase the likelihood of red blood cell polymerization followed by vascular occlusions in SCA patients. Time-varying spectral analysis of heart rate variability (HRV), based on recursive least squares estimation, was employed to study the modulation of the ANS in response to sighs. To improve robustness of the spectral estimation while retaining its ability to track rapid changes, we propose a time-varying parameter estimate variability reduction (TV-PEVR) technique. Because respiration patterns can vary considerably across subjects, we employed a time-varying autoregressive with exogenous input (TV-ARX) model to adjust for the effect of respiration patterns on the HRV indices. Results from 8 SCA subjects and 9 normal controls suggested that the cardiac ANS responses to sighs are not different between the two groups, after adjusting for the effect of post-sigh respiration. However, the peripheral sympathetic response in SCA appeared to be enhanced in this group relative to normals, and sighs may play a role in initiation of vaso-occlusive events in this group of patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
