Depression is associated with lower activities of daily living, competence, and subjective quality of life among the elderly living in Vietnam and Indonesia, as well as in Japan.

A sample of very elderly people (N = 138), aged 75 years and older, living in Urausu, Hokkaido, participated in this study. Participants were classified into three groups: normal, borderline, and dementia. Time and frequency domain measures of HRV were compared with behavioral and cognitive functions. HRV components, except for the LF/HF ratio, did not correlate with age in the very elderly. The LF component showed a statistically significant correlation with all the variables of behavioral functions. Most HRV components showed statistically significant and positive correlations with the flexibility of the back. The LF and LF/HF ratio were significantly lower in the dementia group than in the normal group. Although the meaning of the LF component is s...
