本研究的目的是确定一个没有残疾的骑手的自主神经活动是否被一个实用的和适用的骑马（HT）运动改变。通过心率变异性（HRV）分析自主神经活动的变化。23名没有残疾的参与者骑着马沿着预定的高温路线小跑和步行60分钟。HRV分别在注射前60分钟、注射后60分钟和注射后120分钟取样。作为对照，22名年龄匹配的参与者在休息期间进行了相同的测量。仅HT组副交感神经活动指标高频分量归一化单位（HF nu）值在治疗后120 min明显高于HT前（P< 0.05）。治疗后60 min和120 min， HT组交感神经活动的低频/高频比（LF / HF）均低于对照组（P< 0.05）。这些发现表明，单次HT使骑乘者的自主神经平衡转向副交感神经支配。本研究的结果可以加速马对人类健康的利用。
The aim of this study was to determine whether autonomic nervous activity of a rider with no disability was altered by one practical and applicable horse trekking (HT) exercise. Changes in autonomic nervous activity were analyzed by heart rate variability (HRV). Twenty‐three participants with no disability rode horses along a predetermined HT course at trotting and walking for 60 min. HRV was sampled at 60 min before and immediately, following 60 min, and 120 min after HT. As a control, the same measurements were performed for 22 age‐matched participants during their rest. Only in the HT group, the value of normalized unit in high frequency component (HF nu), an index of parasympathetic nervous activity, was higher at 120 min after treatment than before HT (P< 0.05). The low / high frequency ratio (LF / HF), believed to reflect sympathetic nervous activity, was lower in the HT group than those in the control group at 60 min (P< 0.05) and 120 min after treatment (P< 0.01). These findings suggest that a single HT shifted the autonomic nervous balance of a rider toward parasympathetic dominance. The results obtained by the present study could accelerate the use of horses for human health.
