Abstract

This systematic review aims to determine if there is a correlation between heart rate variability (HRV) indices and overtraining symptoms (OTS) in soccer players. Conforming to PRISMA guidelines, a search was conducted in February 2024 on Web of Science, PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, and SCOPUS. Studies published in English investigating the relationship between HRV parameters and OTS in adult soccer players (>18 years) were included. Accepted study designs were randomized controlled trials, controlled clinical trials, longitudinal studies, prospective studies, cross-sectional studies, and retrospective studies. Methodological quality was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) checklist. The search identified 2041 articles, with 19 included postscreening. Most studies examined the correlation between HRV and OTS using linear indices. The average JBI checklist score was 6.3, indicating fair methodological quality. Thirteen studies showed a relationship between linear HRV parameters and OTS, linked to performance/clinical tests, training load, adaptation, fatigue, recovery, or hormonal markers. Thirteen correlations involved HRV frequency domain parameters, and 28 involved HRV time domain characteristics. HRV indexes were linked to OTS markers such as physical performance and psychological aspects in soccer players. Standardization in research methodologies, addressing confounding factors, and exploring additional indexes are crucial in the future.

足球运动员的心率变异性和过度训练：一项系统综述。

本系统综述旨在确定足球运动员心率变异性（HRV）指数与过度训练症状（OTS）之间是否存在相关性。根据PRISMA指南，于2024年2月在Web of Science、PubMed、EMBASE、CINAHL和SCOPUS上进行了检索。纳入已发表的英语研究，调查成年足球运动员（bb0 - 18岁）HRV参数与OTS之间的关系。可接受的研究设计包括随机对照试验、临床对照试验、纵向研究、前瞻性研究、横断面研究和回顾性研究。采用乔安娜布里格斯研究所（JBI）检查表评估方法学质量。检索确定了2041篇文章，其中19篇包括后筛选。大多数研究使用线性指标检测HRV与OTS之间的相关性。JBI检查表平均得分为6.3分，表明方法学质量尚可。13项研究显示线性HRV参数与OTS之间的关系，与表现/临床测试、训练负荷、适应、疲劳、恢复或激素标志物有关。13项相关涉及HRV频域参数，28项相关涉及HRV时域特征。HRV指数与足球运动员的身体表现和心理方面等OTS指标有关。标准化的研究方法，解决混淆因素，并探索额外的指标是至关重要的。
