The association between sleep duration and muscle sympathetic nerve activity. [PDF]
Purpose: Sleep duration is associated with risk of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. It is thought that shorter sleep increases sympathetic activity.

Nerve growth factor in muscle afferent neurons of peripheral artery disease and autonomic function
In peripheral artery disease patients, the blood supply directed to the lower limbs is reduced. This results in severe limb ischemia and thereby enhances pain sensitivity in lower limbs.

Direct evidences for sympathetic hyperactivity and baroreflex impairment in Tako Tsubo cardiopathy. [PDF]
BackgroundThe exact pathophysiology of Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) remains unknown but a role for sympathetic hyperactivity has been suggested. Up to now, no direct evidence of sympathetic nerve hyperactivity has been established nor involvement of ...

The carotid body as a putative therapeutic target for the treatment of neurogenic hypertension [PDF]
In the spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rat, hyperoxic inactivation of the carotid body (CB) produces a rapid and pronounced fall in both arterial pressure and renal sympathetic nerve activity (RSA).

Muscle sympathetic nerve activity and hemodynamic alterations in middle-aged obese women
To study the relationship between the sympathetic nerve activity and hemodynamic alterations in obesity, we simultaneously measured muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), blood pressure, and forearm blood flow (FBF) in obese and lean individuals ...
