Physiologic regulation of heart rate and blood pressure involves connexin 36-containing gap junctions [PDF]
Chronically elevated sympathetic nervous activity underlies many cardiovascular diseases. Elucidating the mechanisms contributing to sympathetic nervous system output may reveal new avenues of treatment.

Cardiovascular autonomous dysfunction in diabetics: The influence of disease duration, glycoregulation degree and diabetes type [PDF]
INTRODUCTION Cardiovascular autonomous neuropathy (CAN) in diabetes has not been still defined clinically and aetiopathogenetically. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine the influence of disease duration, glycoregulation degree and diabetes ...

Relevance of Sympathetic Nervous System Activation in Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome
Sympathetic tone is well recognised as being implicit in cardiovascular control. It is less readily acknowledged that activation of the sympathetic nervous system is integral in energy homeostasis and can exert profound metabolic effects.

Renal sympathetic denervation in resistant hypertension [PDF]
Resistant hypertension remains a major clinical problem despite the available multidrug therapy. Over the next decades, its incidence will likely increase given that it is strongly associated with older age and obesity.

The autonomic nervous system in atrial fibrillation—pathophysiology and non-invasive assessment
The autonomic nervous system plays a crucial role in atrial fibrillation pathophysiology. Parasympathetic hyperactivity result in a shortening of the action potential duration, a reduction of the conduction wavelength, and as such facilitates reentry in ...
