title: Asymmetry of the acceleration and deceleration capacity of heart rate is strongly dependent on ventricular premature complexes.
abstract: In this letter, we explain the role of acceleration and deceleration capacities as novel risk predictors after myocardial infarction and their relation to the occurrence of ventricular premature complexes.
