Is there diurnal variation of the vestibulosympathetic reflex: implications for orthostatic hypotension.
Incidences of adverse cardiac events and orthostatic hypotension are associated with diurnal variations. The primary purpose of the present study was to determine if the vestibulosympathetic reflex (VSR) follows a diurnal variation in humans. We hypothesized that the VSR would be attenuated at night based on the relation between melatonin and the VSR. Arterial blood pressure, heart rate, calf b...
متن کاملAging attenuates the vestibulosympathetic reflex in humans.
BACKGROUND The vestibular system contributes to sympathetic activation by engagement of the otolith organs. However, there is a significant loss of vestibular function with aging. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to determine if young and older individuals differ in their cardiovascular and sympathetic responses to otolithic stimulation (ie, head-down rotation, HDR). We hypothesi...
متن کاملVestibulosympathetic reflex during mental stress.
Increases in sympathetic neural activity occur independently with either vestibular or mental stimulation, but it is unknown whether sympathetic activation is additive or inhibitive when both stressors are combined. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the combined effects of vestibular and mental stimulation on sympathetic neural activation and arterial pressure in humans. Muscl...
متن کاملGlycerol-induced fluid shifts attenuate the vestibulosympathetic reflex in humans.
The glycerol dehydration test (GDT) has been used to test for the presence of Ménière's disease and elicits acute alterations in vestibular reflexes in both normal and pathological states. Activation of the vestibulosympathetic reflex (VSR) increases muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and peripheral vascular resistance. We hypothesized that the GDT would attenuate the VSR through fluid sh...
متن کاملDiurnal variation in the nitrate content of parsley foliage
The diurnal fluctuation of nitrate concentration in the foliage of three parsley subspecies (plain-leafed, curly-leafed and turnip rooted parsley) cultivated in the spring and autumn of two consecutive years was examined. Nitrogen was applied at 30 (Control), 75, 150, 300 mg kg-1 in both years, but with the addition of 450 mg kg-1 in year 2. Harvest was carried out at 08:30, 12:30 and 17:30 on ...
