Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Children with Prader–Willi syndrome are at increased risk of both obstructive and central sleep apnoea. In addition, these children have impaired autonomic control, which may be exacerbated by sleep apnoea. The aim of this study was to compare autonomic control using heart rate variability and nocturnal dipping of heart rate in children with ...

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 2, Page 375-389, 1 February 2026.Abstract Spinal cord injury (SCI) is characterized by autonomic cardiovascular dysfunction that may contribute to the three‐ to fourfold greater risk of heart disease and stroke compared to non‐injured individuals. While exercise training elicits beneficial changes in autonomic function and vascular structure in healthy individuals, it is unclear if ...

Microelectrode recordings from the human cervical vagus nerve during maximal breath‐holds
Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 2, Page 501-516, 1 February 2026.Abstract Voluntary breath‐holds can be sustained for a long time following training, but ultimately, regardless of duration, the asphyxic break‐point is reached and the apnoea terminated. The physiological changes occurring during the apnoea include a marked increase in sympathetically‐mediated vasoconstriction in non‐essential organs, such as skeletal
