A mathematical model of CO2 effect on cardiovascular regulation.

چکیده
The effect of changes in arterial CO2 tension on the cardiovascular system is analyzed by means of a mathematical model. The model is an extension of a previous one that already incorporated the main reflex and local mechanisms triggered by O2 changes. The new aspects covered by the model are the O2-CO2 interaction at the peripheral chemoreceptors, the effect of local CO2 changes on peripheral resistances, the direct central neural system (CNS) response to CO2, and the control of central chemoreceptors on ventilation and tidal volume. A statistical comparison between model simulation results and various experimental data has been performed. This comparison suggests that the model is able to simulate the acute cardiovascular response to changes in blood gas content in a variety of conditions (normoxic hypercapnia, hypercapnia during artificial ventilation, hypocapnic hypoxia, and hypercapnic hypoxia). The model ascribes the observed responses to the complex superimposition of many mechanisms simultaneously working (baroreflex, peripheral chemoreflex, CNS response, lung-stretch receptors, local gas tension effect), which may be differently activated depending on the specific stimulus under study. However, although some experiments can be reproduced using a single basal set of parameters, reproduction of other experiments requires a different combination of the mechanism strengths (particularly, a different strength of the local CO2 mechanism on peripheral resistances and of the CNS response to CO2). Starting from these results, some assumptions to explain the striking differences reported in the literature are presented. The model may represent a valid support for the interpretation of physiological data on acute cardiovascular regulation and may favor the synthesis of contradictory results into a single theoretical setting.
