Do physiological and pathological stresses produce different changes in heart rate variability?

Although physiological (e.g. exercise) and pathological (e.g. infection) stress affecting the cardiovascular system have both been documented to be associated with a reduction in overall heart rate variability (HRV), it remains unclear if loss of HRV is ubiquitously similar across different domains...
