Seasonal variation in muscle sympathetic nerve activity
Epidemiologic data suggest there are seasonal variations in the incidence of severe cardiac events with peak levels being evident in the winter. Whether autonomic indices including muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) vary with season remains unclear. In this report, we tested the hypothesis that resting MSNA varies with the seasons of the year with peak levels evident in the winter. We ana...
متن کاملEffects of expiratory muscle work on muscle sympathetic nerve activity.
We hypothesized that contractions of the expiratory muscles carried out to the point of task failure would cause an increase in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA). We measured MSNA directly in six healthy men during resisted expiration (60% maximal expiratory pressure) leading to task failure with long [breathing frequency (f(b)) = 15 breaths/min; expiratory time (TE)/total respiratory cy...
متن کاملBaroreflex control of muscle sympathetic nerve activity in borderline hypertension.
Patients with borderline hypertension have exaggerated vascular responses to orthostatic stress produced by tilt or lower body negative pressure (LBNP). It has been suggested that 1) in the supine position, these patients have augmented activity of cardiopulmonary baroreceptors that exerts an increased restraint on sympathetic vasoconstrictor tone; 2) withdrawal of this augmented inhibitory bar...
متن کاملRespiratory correlates of muscle sympathetic nerve activity in heart failure.
1. Sympathetic activation in congestive heart failure indicates a poor prognosis. Haemodynamic correlates of increased sympathetic nerve traffic to muscle (MSNA) and to the heart have been well characterized, but these account for only 50 to 60% of the variance in sympathetic activity between patients.2. In healthy subjects, breathing pattern modulates MSNA and positive airway pressure consiste...
متن کاملMuscle sympathetic nerve activity in renovascular hypertension and primary aldosteronism.
Previous studies, including our own, have demonstrated that muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) is increased in patients with essential hypertension compared with normotensive subjects. However, the features of sympathetic nerve activity are still unknown in secondary hypertension. We examined MSNA in eight patients with renovascular hypertension and in 11 patients with primary aldosteroni...
