Abstract:
The extent of dependence of cardiac vagal tone on arterial baroreceptor input has been studied in 12 healthy, young adult subjects. Cardiac vagal tone was defined as the chang in R-R interval after complete cholinergic blockade by atropine. Baroreflex sensitivity was determined with the "Oxford-method": R-R interval was regressed against systolic pressure. The interindividual correlation between cardiac vagal tone and baroreflex sensitivity for falling pressures was found to be significant, but not close (R = 0.81, P = 0.002). In each subject, the baroreflex regression line for falling pressur

Abstract:
The neural interaction between the cardiopulmonary and arterial baroreflex may be critical for the regulation of blood pressure during orthostatic stress. However, studies have reported conflicting results: some indicate increases and others decreases in cardiac baroreflex sensitivity (i.e., gain) with cardiopulmonary unloading. Thus the effect of orthostatic stress-induced central hypovolemia on regulation of heart rate via the arterial baroreflex remains unclear. We sought to comprehensively assess baroreflex function during orthostatic stress by identifying and comparing open- and closed-lo

Aging reduces cardiac baroreflex sensitivity. Our primary aim in the present study was to assess the effects of aging on cardiac baroreflex sensitivity, as determined by power spectral analysis (α index), in a large population of healthy subjects. We also compared the α indexes determined by power spectral analysis with cardiac baroreflex sensitivity measured by the phenylephrine method (BSphen). We studied 142 subjects (79 males/63 females; age range 9–94 years), who were subdivided into five groups according to percentiles of age (25, 50, 75 and 95).

Abstract:
Blockade of the angiotensin II (ANG II) type 1 receptor (AT1) has been shown to restore baroreflex sensitivity in rats and rabbits with experimental chronic heart failure (CHF). Because the modulation of baroreflex function in response to ANG II is mediated in part by AT1 receptors located in the area postrema, we hypothesized that lesions of the area postrema would prevent the enhancement in baroreflex function in response to AT1-receptor blockade in rabbits with pacing-induced CHF. Experiments were carried out on 24 male New Zealand White rabbits that were divided into sham ( n = 12) and les

Abstract:
Acute stroke has been associated with several manifestations of autonomic dysfunction including cardiovascular, sudomotor, thermoregulatory, gastrointestinal and urogenital symptoms. In particular, cardiovascular autonomic impairment including blunted baroreflex has been repeatedly shown to be of prognostic importance in acute stroke. Pathophysiological mechanisms of baroreflex changes in acute stroke include lesions of the central autonomic processing with consequent sympathetic system overactivation and impairment of baroreflex functioning. Previous studies have shown that patients with shif

Abstract:
Background Desflurane anesthesia has been associated with heart rate (HR) and sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) responses that differ from those during isoflurane anesthesia. Whether these differences might be due to better preservation by desflurane of the baroreceptor reflex control of HR or SNA in humans was examined. Methods Baroreflex sensitivity was assessed in 18 volunteers anesthetized with either desflurane or isoflurane. Measurements of HR, blood pressure (BP), and efferent SNA (percutaneous recordings from the peroneal nerve) were made, and baroreflex sensitivity was evaluated at con

Abstract:
In a previous clinical study we have demonstrated a significantly lower baroreflex-mediated bradycardic response in young women compared with men. The present study determined whether sexual dimorphism in baroreflex sensitivity in young rats also covers the reflex tachycardic response. The study was then extended to test the hypothesis that an attenuated cardiac cholinergic component of the baroreflex heart rate response in females may account for the gender difference. Baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) was expressed as the regression coefficient of the reciprocal relationship between evoked change

Abstract:
The effects of coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery on spontaneous baroreflex (SBR) sensitivity and heart rate variability were examined in 11 women and 23 men preoperatively and 5 days postoperatively. Electrocardiograph R–R interval and beat-by-beat arterial blood pressure data were collected continuously for 20 min in the supine and standing postures. Coarse graining spectral analysis was performed on the heart rate variability data. Spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity declined after surgery with a differential influence of gender. Men showed a decrease in SBR slope following surgery,

Abstract:
In early studies of humans, baroreflex sensitivity was found to be higher during sleep; however, subsequent observations in several species, including humans, have been at variance with the original reports. Sleep and arousal are behavioral states, and it is difficult to accurately and repeatedly measure baroreflex sensitivity in behaving animals. However, pharmacologically immobilized (neuromuscularly blocked) rats have apparently normal sleep-wakefulness cycles, and baroreflex gain can be measured directly in this preparation.

Abstract:
To determine the effects of simulated microgravity on aortic baroreflex control of heart rate, we exposed seven male subjects (mean age 38 +/- 3 yr) to 15 days of bed rest in the 6 degrees head-down position. The sensitivity of the aortic-cardiac baroreflex was determined during a steady-state phenylephrine-induced increase in mean arterial pressure combined with lower body negative pressure to counteract central venous pressure increases and neck pressure to offset the increased carotid sinus transmural pressure. The aortic-cardiac baroreflex gain was assessed by determining the ratio of the

Abstract:
1. Low heart rate variability is associated with an increased risk of cardiac sudden death, coronary heart disease and all-cause mortality. We have previously shown that physically active postmenopausal women demonstrate higher levels of heart rate variability and cardiac baroreflex sensitivity compared to their sedentary peers. The purpose of the present prospective study was to test the hypothesis that heart rate variability and cardiac baroreflex sensitivity would be reduced with age in sedentary but not physically active women. To accomplish this, we measured heart rate variability (both t

Abstract:
Phenylephrine (PE) bolus and infusion methods have both been used to measure baroreflex sensitivity in humans. To determine whether the two methods produce the same values of baroreceptor sensitivity, we administered intravenous PE by both bolus injection and graded infusion methods to 17 normal subjects. Baroreflex sensitivity was determined from the slope of the linear relationship between the cardiac cycle length (R-R interval) and systolic arterial pressure. Both methods produced similar peak increases in arterial pressure and reproducible results of baroreflex sensitivity in the same subj
