| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Our group focused on cardiac autonomic nervous activity (CANA), which controls part of the human body, and weather conditions to care for elderly patients to improve their daily life activities. As a first step and to better understand the relationship between weather fluctuations and CANA, we monitored the sleep of 39 healthy adults in a controlled environment for one year. We collected about 1000 data and analyzed the relationship between their CANA while sleeping and data from meteorological sensors (℃，%，hPa) that were set up in their rooms. The results showed no overall similarities of sleeping patterns within the group however, sleeping patterns were influenced by irregular meal times. In addition, the CANA was decreased when experiencing low atmospheric pressure and high humidity. In the months of March and April, we observed the power of CANA was intensified, suggesting there is a correlation between seasonal changes, inclement weather and worsening physical condition.
