Sympathetic nervous system and cardiovascular risk in mitral valve prolapse

Acta Medica Martiniana, 2019
Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) represents a frequent cardiovascular condition associated with increased cardiovascular risk, which may have progressive course and become malignant. Dysregulation of autonomic nervous system - especially sympathetic overdrive

Time Series Analysis using Embedding Dimension on Heart Rate Variability [PDF]

, 2018
Heart Rate Variability (HRV) is the measurement sequence with one or more visible variables of an underlying dynamic system, whose state changes with time. In practice, it is difficult to know what variables determine the actual dynamic system.

A cholinergic-sympathetic pathway primes immunity in hypertension and mediates brain-to-spleen communication [PDF]

, 2016
The crucial role of the immune system in hypertension is now widely recognized. We previously reported that hypertensive challenges couple the nervous drive with immune system activation, but the physiological and molecular mechanisms of this connection ...

Sympathetic Nervous System and Hypertension [PDF]

Hypertension, 2013
With the development and implementation of device-based therapeutic interventions to decrease renal and systemic nerve activity in patients with resistant hypertension, there has been an increase in research dealing with the role of the sympathetic nervous system in hypertension. These interventions have produced substantial decreases in blood pressure
