The extent of dependence of cardiac vagal tone on arterial baroreceptor input has been
studied in 12 healthy, young adult subjects. Cardiac vagal tone was defined as the chang in …

Depressed baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is considered
an indication of decreased vagal and/or increased sympathetic tone. To determine the effect …

Abstract In 30 healthy subjects aged 20–48 years the hemodynamic response to carotid
sinus stimulation (neck suction‐40 mmHg) was studied. Heart rate, arterial pressure and …

Reflex heart block was studied in 20 dogs anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital and in 5
trained unanesthetized dogs. Three different vagal reflexes were produced: the Marey …

Objectives. This study was designed to determine whether arterial baroreflex control of
blood pressure is altered in patients with congestive heart failure. Background. Arterial …

Electrical stimulation of the sinus nerve or excitation of the carotid baroceptors by increasing
the intrasinus pressure significantly decreased the right ventricular contractile force, heart …

Previous studies from our laboratory have shown that chronic intracerebroventricular
administration of captopril attenuates the development of hypertension in the spontaneously …

The baroreflex response to changes in transmural pressure throughout the arterial tree or
limited to the carotid sinus was evaluated in ten borderline hypertensives and compared …

To investigate the potential contribution of cardiopulmonary reflexes in myocardial ischemia,
the coronary vascular response to cardiopulmonary baroreceptor unloading and the number …

Eight diabetic subjects with moderately elevated blood pressure (BP)(systolic (SBP) greater
than 140 and/or diastolic (DBP) greater than 90 mmHg) were studied. Each had evidence of …
