Our body’s physiological processes oscillate on a 24-hour cycle known as the circadian rhythm. Day-night oscillations in the release of hormones, body temperature, and a range of other important physiological events orchestrate the complex system that is us. Every process in our body happens rhythmically. Read more

The exact mechanisms behind this link are complex, but it’s believed that the combination of lifestyle factors associated with depression (such as poor diet, lack of exercise, and smoking) and the physiological effects of depression on the body (including inflammation and blood clotting) can contribute to heart problems.

This includes, but is not limited to, PE, asthma/COPD exacerbation, hypoxic vasoconstriction from pneumonia, acute pulmonary hypertension exacerbation. Whether it's a PE or a severe asthma attack, the cellular physiology of these cells is acutely the same. 3) Reperfusion T-wave inversion should be present in the pain free state.
