Cold Pressor Response in High Landers Versus Low Landers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2014
Background: Native high landers face two main environmental challenges i.e. hypobaric hypoxia and low ambient temperatures. Both factors contribute to increased sympathetic stimulation and increased blood pressure.

Impact of instrumental music on heart rate variability in ardent music listeners

open access: yesResearch in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Purpose: The autonomic nervous system serves as the final gateway by which music exerts a therapeutic effect on health and disease. The aim of the study is to find the effect of different instrumental music on heart rate variability (HRV) as a part of ...

From Mice to Mainframes: Experimental Models for Investigation of the Intracardiac Nervous System

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2021
The intracardiac nervous system (IcNS), sometimes referred to as the “little brain” of the heart, is involved in modulating many aspects of cardiac physiology.

Long COVID and the Autonomic Nervous System: The Journey from Dysautonomia to Therapeutic Neuro-Modulation through the Retrospective Analysis of 152 Patients

open access: yesNeuroSci, 2022
Introduction. The severity and prevalence of Post-Acute COVID-19 Sequela (PACS) or long-COVID syndrome (long COVID) should not be a surprise. Long-COVID symptoms may be explained by oxidative stress and parasympathetic and sympathetic (P&S) dysfunction ...

Nocturnal Heart Rate Variability Might Help in Predicting Severe Obstructive Sleep-Disordered Breathing

open access: yesBiology, 2023
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can have long-term cardiovascular and metabolic effects. The identification of OSA-related impairments would provide diagnostic and prognostic value.

The Role of Heart Rate on the Associations Between Body Composition and Heart Rate Variability in Children With Overweight/Obesity: The ActiveBrains Project

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2019
BackgroundHeart rate variability (HRV) is negatively associated with body mass index and adiposity in several populations. However, less information is available about this association in children with overweight and obesity, especially severe/morbid ...

Vestibular modulation of muscle sympathetic nerve activity during sinusoidal linear acceleration in supine humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2014
The utricle and saccular components of the vestibular apparatus detect linear displacements of the head in the horizontal and vertical planes, respectively. We previously showed that sinusoidal linear acceleration in the horizontal plane of seated humans

The Importance of Peripheral Nerves in Adipose Tissue for the Regulation of Energy Balance

open access: yesBiology, 2019
Brown and white adipose tissues are essential for maintenance of proper energy balance and metabolic health. In order to function efficiently, these tissues require both endocrine and neural communication with the brain.

Identification of Mineralocorticoid Receptors, Aldosterone, and Its Processing Enzyme CYP11B2 on Parasympathetic and Sympathetic Neurons in Rat Intracardiac Ganglia

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroanatomy, 2022
Recent interest has focused on the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) and its impact on the myocardium and the performance of the heart. However, there is a lack of evidence about MR expression and its endogenous ligand aldosterone synthesis with specific ...
