Low birth weight and increased sympathetic activity.
To the Editor: In a recent study on twins, IJzerman et al1 report an association between low birth weight and a short pre-ejection period at rest and during stress tests. They interpret their findings as evidence for an increased sympathetic nervous activity in low birth weight subjects. These data elucidate an important aspect in the regulation of the sympathetic system in low birth weight sub...
متن کاملOn the Physiology of Blood Pressure Decrease During Nocturnal Sleep in Healthy Humans
That sleep is accompanied by a blood pressure decrease is well known; however, the underlying physiology deserves further investigation. The present study examines in healthy subjects 2 main questions: is this dipping actively evoked? and what are the consequences of nondipping for daytime blood pressure? Nocturnal blood pressure was extrinsically elevated in 12 sleeping subjects to mean daytim...

متن کاملEndotoxemia causes central downregulation of sympathetic vasomotor tone in healthy humans.
Experimental endotoxemia as a model of the initial septic response affects the autonomic nervous system with profound cardiovascular sequelae. Whether the postsynaptic sympathoneural activity to the muscle vascular bed is altered in the early septic phase remains to be determined. The present study aimed to elucidate the early effects of LPS on muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and cardi...
متن کاملEffect of estrogen replacement therapy on sympathetic activity in postmenopausal women.
Sympathetic Activity in Postmenopausal Women To the Editor: Two recent articles in Circulation described modulations of sympathetic nerve activity to the muscle vascular bed in postmenopausal women on long-term estrogen replacement therapy (ERT). Vongpatanasin et al1 reported a decrease in resting muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) after transdermal but not oral estrogen administration. F...
