The association between sleep duration and muscle sympathetic nerve activity
PurposeSleep duration is associated with risk of hypertension and cardiovascular diseases. It is thought that shorter sleep increases sympathetic...

The effect of hyperoxia on muscle sympathetic nerve activity: a systematic review and meta-analysis
PurposeWe conducted a meta-analysis to determine the effect of hyperoxia on muscle sympathetic nerve activity in healthy individuals and those with...

Effective non-invasive ventilation reduces muscle sympathetic nerve activity in patients with stable hypercapnic COPD
Increased sympathetic drive is of prognostic significance in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) but its determinants remain poorly...

Immediate effect of caffeine on sympathetic nerve activity: why coffee is safe? A single-centre crossover study
PurposesHabitual coffee drinking is ubiquitous and generally considered to be safe despite its transient hypertensive effect. Our purpose was to...
-
Skin sympathetic nerve activity as a potential biomarker for overactive bladder
PurposeAbnormalities in autonomic function are associated with an overactive bladder (OAB). Heart rate variability is generally used as the sole...

Differential effects of renal denervation on skin and muscle sympathetic nerve traffic in resistant and uncontrolled hypertension
PurposeRenal denervation (RDN) exerts sympathoinhibitory effects. No information is available, however, on whether these effects have a regional or a...
-
Differential control of sympathetic outflow to muscle and skin during physical and cognitive stressors
PurposeSympathetic nerve activity towards muscle (MSNA) and skin (SSNA) regulates various physiological parameters. MSNA primarily functions in blood...

Effect of pulmonary vein isolation on the relationship between left atrial reverse remodeling and sympathetic nerve activity in patients with atrial fibrillation
PurposeCatheter ablation (CA) to isolate the pulmonary vein, which is an established treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF), is associated with left...

Study Protocol for the Pleiotropic Effects of Sodium–Glucose Cotransporter 2 Inhibitor on Organ-Specific Sympathetic Nerve Activity and Insulin Sensitivity in Participants with Type 2 Diabetes
IntroductionHyperinsulinemia and hyperglycemia are associated with exaggerated systemic sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) in patients with type 2...

Effects of acute carotid baroreceptor stimulation on sympathetic nerve traffic in resistant and uncontrolled hypertension: a systematic review and meta-analysis
In resistant hypertensive patients acute carotid baroreflex stimulation is associated with a blood pressure (BP) reduction, believed to be mediated...

Sex differences in Black Veterans with PTSD: women versus men have higher sympathetic activity, inflammation, and blunted cardiovagal baroreflex sensitivity
PurposePost-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with greater risk of incident hypertension and cardiovascular disease (CVD). Inflammation...

Advances in the Treatment of Neuropathic Pain by Sympathetic Regulation
Purpose of ReviewTo explore the mechanism and therapeutic effect of sympathetic nerve regulation on neuropathic pain.
Recent FindingsA comprehensive...

Aerobic fitness and sympathetic responses to spontaneous muscle sympathetic nerve activity in young males
PurposeLower aerobic fitness increases the risk of develo** hypertension. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) is important for the...

Therapeutic Effects of Lipid Lowering Medications on Myocardial Blood Flow, Inflammation, and Sympathetic Nerve Activity Using Nuclear Techniques
Purpose of ReviewStatins are routinely applied in patients with coronary artery disease, as they allow significantly to reduce blood cholesterol...

Innervation pattern of the unclosed detrusor muscle in classic bladder exstrophy: a study of patients with urothelial overexpression of nerve growth factor
PurposeAn overexpression of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the urothelium is discussed to lead to neuronal hyperinnervation of the bladder detrusor....

Electroacupuncture pretreatment mediates sympathetic nerves to alleviate myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury via CRH neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus
BackgroundMyocardial ischemia–reperfusion can further exacerbate myocardial injury and increase the risk of death. Our previous research found that...

Sex differences in vascular transduction of sympathetic nerve activity
PurposeSympathetic vasoconstriction plays a major role in the beat-to-beat control of blood pressure. To be effective and thus avoid dangerously high...
