What this trial studies

This study aims to evaluate the autonomic function, cerebral autoregulation, and cortical activity in healthy adult subjects. It will analyze various physiological parameters, including cardiac and cerebrovascular variability, during both resting and active standing conditions. Additionally, psychometric tests will be conducted to assess any depressive symptoms among participants. The goal is to understand how these physiological functions correlate with psychological dimensions.
