We examined the neurocirculatory and ventilatory responses to intermittent asphyxia (arterial O(2) saturation = 79-85%, end-tidal PCO(2) =3-5 Torr above eupnea) in seven healthy humans during wakefulness. The intermittent asphyxia intervention consisted of 20-s asphyxic exposures alternating with 40-s periods of room-air breathing for a total of 20 min. Minute ventilation increased during the intermittent asphyxia period (14.2 +/- 2.0 l/min in the final 5 min of asphyxia vs. 7.5 +/- 0.4 l/min in baseline) but returned to the baseline level within 2 min after completion of the series of asphyxic exposures. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity increased progressively, reaching 175 +/- 12% of baseline in the final 5 min of the intervention. Unlike ventilation, sympathetic activity remained elevated for at least 20 min after removal of the chemical stimuli (150 +/- 10% of baseline in the last 5 min of the recovery period). Intermittent asphyxia caused a small, but statistically significant, increase in heart rate (64 +/- 4 beats/min in the final 5 min of asphyxia vs. 61 +/- 4 beats/min in baseline); however, this increase was not sustained after the return to room-air breathing. These data demonstrate that relatively short-term exposure to intermittent asphyxia causes sympathetic activation that persists after removal of the chemical stimuli. This carryover effect provides a potential mechanism whereby intermittent asphyxia during sleep could lead to chronic sympathetic activation in patients with sleep apnea syndrome. 相似文献

Evidence suggests lipid abnormalities may contribute to elevated blood pressure, increased vascular resistance, and reduced arterial compliance among insulin-resistant subjects. In a study of 11 normal volunteers undergoing 4-h-long infusions of Intralipid and heparin to raise plasma nonesterified fatty acids (NEFAs), we observed increases of blood pressure. In contrast, blood pressure did not change in these same volunteers during a 4-h infusion of saline and heparin. To better characterize the hemodynamic responses to Intralipid and heparin, another group of 21 individuals, including both lean and obese volunteers, was studied after 3 wk on a controlled diet with 180 mmol sodium/day. Two and four hours after starting the infusions, plasma NEFAs increased by 134 and 111% in those receiving Intralipid and heparin, P < 0.01, whereas plasma NEFAs did not change in the first group of normal volunteers who received saline and heparin. The hemodynamic changes in lean and obese subjects in the second study were similar, and the results were combined. The infusion of Intralipid and heparin induced a significant increase in systolic (13.5 +/- 2.1 mmHg) and diastolic (8.0 +/- 1.5 mmHg) blood pressure as well as heart rate (9.4 +/- 1.4 beats/min). Small and large artery compliance decreased, and systemic vascular resistance rose. These data raise the possibility that lipid abnormalities associated with insulin resistance contribute to the elevated blood pressure and heart rate as well as the reduced vascular compliance observed in subjects with the cardiovascular risk factor cluster. 相似文献

Shivering modulation in humans: Effects of rapid changes in environmental temperature 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
During cold exposure, increase in heat production is produced via the activation of shivering thermogenesis and nonshivering thermogenesis, the former being the main contributor to compensatory heat production in non-acclimatized humans. In rats, it has been demonstrated that shivering thermogenesis is modulated solely by skin thermoreceptors but this modulation has yet to be investigated in humans. The aim of this study was to determine if cold-induced shivering in humans can be modulated by cutaneous thermoreceptors in conditions where increases in heat loss can be adequately compensated by increases in thermogenic rate. Using a liquid-conditioned suit, six non-acclimatized men were exposed to cold (6 °C) for four 30 min periods, each of them separated by 15 min of heat exposure (33 °C). Core temperature remained stable throughout exposures whereas skin temperatures significantly decreased by 12% in average during the sequential cold/heat exposures compared to baseline (p<0.0001). Shivering intensity and metabolic rate increased significantly during 6 °C exposures (3.3±0.7% MVC, 0.40±0.0 L O2/min, respectively) and were significantly reduced during 33 °C exposure (0.5±0.1% MVC, 0.25±0.0 L O2/min; p<0.005 for both). Most importantly, shivering could be quickly and strongly inhibited during 33 °C exposure although skin temperature often remained below baseline values. In conclusion, under compensatory conditions, cutaneous thermoreceptors appear to be a major modulator of the shivering response in humans and seem to react rapidly to changes in the microclimate right next to the skin and to skin temperature. 相似文献

The hypothesis was tested that cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV) are increased by a moderate physiological elevation in sodium intake with a more pronounced effect in the ambulatory upright seated than supine position. Fourteen healthy males were investigated during ambulatory and controlled laboratory conditions at the end of two consecutive 5-day periods with sodium intakes of 70 (low) and 250 (high) mmol/24 h or vice versa, respectively. Comparing high and low sodium intake, plasma volume and plasma protein concentrations were 9 and 8% higher in the seated and the supine position, respectively. When seated during laboratory conditions, CO was 5.3 +/- 0.2 l/min on the high sodium intake vs. 4.8 +/- 0.2 l/min on the low (P < 0.05), and SV was 81 +/- 3 vs. 68 +/- 3 ml (P < 0.05). In the supine position, SV was 107 +/- 3 ml on the high vs. 99 +/- 3 ml (P < 0.05) on the low sodium intake, while CO remained unchanged. The difference in CO and SV induced by the change in sodium intake was significantly higher in the seated than in the supine position (P < 0.05). During upright ambulatory conditions, CO was 5.9 +/- 0.2 l/min during the high and 5.2 +/- 0.2 l/min during the low sodium intake (P < 0.05), and SV was 84 +/- 3 and 69 +/- 3 ml (P < 0.05), respectively. Mean arterial pressure was unchanged by the variations in sodium intake. In conclusion, increments in sodium intake within the normal physiological range increase CO and SV and more so in the seated vs. the supine position. These changes are readily detectable during upright, ambulatory conditions. The results indicate that the higher SV and CO could constitute an arterial baroreflex stimulus for the augmented renal sodium excretion. 相似文献

Otolith organs have been shown to activate the sympathetic nervous system in the prone position by head-down rotation (HDR) in humans. To date, otolithic stimulation by HDR has not been comprehensively studied in the upright posture. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether otolithic stimulation increases muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) in the upright posture. It was hypothesized that stimulation of the otolith organs would increase MSNA in the upright posture, despite increased baseline sympathetic activation due to unloading of the baroreceptors. MSNA, arterial blood pressure, heart rate, and degree of head rotation were measured during HDR in 18 volunteers (23 +/- 1 yr) in different postures. Study 1 (n = 11) examined HDR in the prone and sitting positions and study 2 (n = 7) examined HDR in the prone and 60 degrees head-up tilt positions. Baseline MSNA was 8 +/- 4, 15 +/- 4, and 33 +/- 2 bursts/min for prone, sitting, and head-up tilt, respectively. HDR significantly increased MSNA in the prone (Delta4 +/- 1 and Delta105 +/- 37% for burst frequency and total activity, respectively), sitting (Delta5 +/- 1 and Delta43 +/- 12%), and head-up tilt (Delta7 +/- 1 and Delta110 +/- 41%; P < 0.05). Sensitivity of the vestibulosympathetic reflex (%DeltaMSNA/DeltaHDR; degree of head rotation) was significantly greater in the sitting and head-up tilt than prone position (prone = 74 +/- 22; sitting = 109 +/- 30; head-up tilt = 276 +/- 103; P < 0.05). These data indicate that stimulation of the otolith organs can mediate increases in MSNA in the upright posture and suggest a greater sensitivity of the vestibulosympathetic reflex in the upright posture in humans. 相似文献

This study examined the hemodynamic consequences of prolonged lower body positive-pressure application and their relationship to changes in the plasma concentration of the major vasoactive hormones. Six men [36 +/- 2 (SE) yr] underwent 30 min of sitting and then 3 h of 70 degrees head-up tilt. An antigravity suit was applied (60 Torr legs, 30 Torr abdomen) during the last 2 h of tilt. In a similar noninflation experiment, the endocrine responses were measured in the suited subjects tilted for 3 h. Two-dimensional echocardiography was used to calculate ventricular volume and cardiac output. Measurements were made 30 min before and 30 and 90 min after inflation. Immediately after inflation, mean arterial pressure increased by 7 +/- 2 Torr and heart rate decreased by 16 +/- 4 beats/min. Left ventricular end-diastolic volume and systolic volume increased significantly (P less than 0.05) at 30 and 90 min of inflation. Cardiac output increased after 30 min of inflation and returned to the preinflation level at 90 min. Plasma norepinephrine and plasma renin activity were maximally suppressed after 15 and 90 min of inflation, respectively (P less than 0.05). No such hormonal changes occurred during control. Plasma sodium, potassium, and osmolality remained unchanged during both experiments. Thus, prolonged application of lower body positive pressure induces 1) a transient increase in cardiac output and 2) a marked and sustained decrease in plasma norepinephrine and plasma renin activity, which reflect an inflation-induced decrease in sympathetic activity. 相似文献

High concentrations of inspired oxygen have been reported to have significant hemodynamic effects that may be related to increased free radical production. If oxygen therapy increases free radical production, it may also modify hemodynamic responses to a nitric oxide donor. Twenty-nine healthy male volunteers were studied using randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover designs to determine whether oxygen therapy is associated with hemodynamic and forearm vascular effects. We measured hemodynamic parameters and forearm vascular responses before and 1 h after exposure to 100% oxygen versus medical air. Plasma 8-iso-PGF2alpha and plasma vitamin C were measured to assess the biochemical effects of oxygen administration. Hemodynamic measurements were also made following the acute administration of sublingual nitroglycerin. Oxygen therapy caused no significant change in blood pressure, plasma 8-iso-PGF2alpha, or vitamin C. Oxygen did cause a significant reduction in heart rate and forearm blood flow, and an increase in peripheral vascular resistance. Oxygen caused no change in the hemodynamic response to nitroglycerin. Therefore, in healthy young adults, therapy with 100% oxygen does not affect blood pressure, despite causing an increase in vascular resistance, is not associated with evidence of increased free radical injury, and does not affect the hemodynamic responses to nitroglycerin. 相似文献

The "push-pull" effect denotes the reduced tolerance to +G(z) (hypergravity) when +G(z) stress is preceded by exposure to hypogravity, i.e., fractional, zero, or negative G(z). The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that an exaggerated, myogenically mediated rise in leg vascular conductance contributes to the push-pull effect, using heart level arterial blood pressure as a measure of G tolerance. The approach was to impose control (30 s of 30 degrees head-up tilt) and push-pull (30 s of 30 degrees head-up tilt immediately preceded by 10 s of -15 degrees head-down tilt) gravitational stress after administration of hexamethonium (5 mg/kg) to inhibit autonomic ganglionic neurotransmission in seven dogs. Cardiac output or thigh level arterial pressure (myogenic stimulus) was maintained constant by computer-controlled ventricular pacing. The animals were sedated with acepromazine and lightly restrained in lateral recumbency on a tilt table. Following the onset of head-up tilt, the magnitude of the fall in heart level arterial pressure from baseline was -11.6 +/- 2.9 and -17.1 +/- 2.2 mmHg for the control and push-pull trials, respectively (P < 0.05), when cardiac output was maintained constant. Over 40% of the exaggerated fall in heart level arterial pressure was attributable to an exaggerated rise in hindlimb vascular conductance (P < 0.05). Maintaining thigh level arterial pressure constant abolished the exaggerated rise in hindlimb blood flow. Thus a push-pull effect largely attributable to a myogenically induced rise in leg vascular conductance occurs when autonomic function is inhibited. 相似文献

In chronic experiments on 75 Wistar, August and randombred rats hemodynamic changes were examined during 30-hour immobilization stress. The ECG was recorded and arterial blood pressure measured. The basic hemodynamic characteristics were determined with the help of the previously implanted ultrasonic blood flow probes. Analysis of hemodynamic changes in animals resistant, adapted and prone to stress demonstrated that changes in the total peripheral resistance play the leading role in the disturbance of the arterial blood pressure control. It was established that a progressive lowering of arterial blood pressure resulting from the abruptly reduced total peripheral resistance is the main and the most frequent cause of death of animals exposed to immobilization stress. At the same time the cardiac hemodynamic component may play an essential role in the mechanism of death. This component may include either progressive bradycardia or a combination of an ischemic myocardial damage and reduced total peripheral resistance. 相似文献

The hemodynamic effects of three different infusion rates of epinephrine (25, 50, or 100 ng X kg-1 X min-1 for 14 min) were examined in 10 normal human subjects. Ejection fraction and changes in cardiac volumes were assessed by radionuclide ventriculography. Plasma epinephrine was increased to levels that spanned the normal physiological range (178 +/- 15, 259 +/- 24, and 484 +/- 69 pg/ml, respectively). Epinephrine infusions resulted in dose-dependent increases in heart rate (8 +/- 3, 12 +/- 2, and 17 +/- 1 beats/min, mean +/- SE) and systolic pressure (8 +/- 1, 18 +/- 2, and 30 +/- 6 mmHg). Although epinephrine infusions had minimal effects on end-diastolic volume, there were significant increases in stroke volume (+26 +/- 2, 31 +/- 4, and 40 +/- 4%), ejection fraction (+0.10 +/- 0.01, 0.14 +/- 0.02 and 0.16 +/- 0.03 ejection fraction units), and cardiac output (+41 +/- 4, 58 +/- 5, and 74 +/- 1%). These increases in left ventricular performance were associated with a decreased systemic vascular resistance (-31 +/- 3, -42 +/- 2, and -48 +/- 8%). Supine bicycle exercise resulted in similar plasma epinephrine levels (417 +/- 109 pg/ml) and similar changes in stroke volume, ejection fraction, and systemic vascular resistance but greater increases in heart rate and systolic blood pressure. Since infusion-associated hemodynamic changes occurred at plasma epinephrine levels commonly achieved during many types of physical and emotional stress, epinephrine release may have an important role in regulating systemic vascular resistance, stroke volume, and ejection fraction responses to stress in man. 相似文献

Effects of posture and bronchoconstriction on low-frequency input and transfer impedances in humans.

We simultaneously evaluated the mechanical response of the total respiratory system, lung, and chest wall to changes in posture and to bronchoconstriction. We synthesized the optimal ventilation waveform (OVW) approach, which simultaneously provides ventilation and multifrequency forcing, with optoelectronic plethysmography (OEP) to measure chest wall flow globally and locally. We applied an OVW containing six frequencies from 0.156 to 4.6 Hz to the mouth of six healthy men in the seated and supine positions, before and after methacholine challenge. We measured mouth, esophageal, and transpulmonary pressures, airway flow by pneumotachometry, and total chest wall, pulmonary rib cage, and abdominal volumes by OEP. We computed total respiratory, lung, and chest wall input impedances and the total and regional transfer impedances (Ztr). These data were appropriately sensitive to changes in posture, showing added resistance in supine vs. seated position. The Ztr were also highly sensitive to lung constriction, more so than input impedance, as the former is minimally distorted by shunting of flow into alveolar gas compression and airway walls. Local impedances show that, during bronchoconstriction and at typical breathing frequencies, the contribution of the abdomen becomes amplified relative to the rib cage. A similar redistribution occurs when passing from seated to supine. These data suggest that the OEP-OVW approach for measuring Ztr could noninvasively track important lung and respiratory conditions, even in subjects who cannot cooperate. Applications might range from routine evaluation of airway hyperreactivity in asthmatic subjects to critical conditions in the supine position during mechanical ventilation. 相似文献

For several years, it has been possible to determine renin by a direct RIA. In the present study, plasma active renin concentration (PRC) was related to plasma renin activity (PRA) and aldosterone as a function of a standardized posture test. Using PRC, our target was to define the shortest necessary test duration. The three parameters were examined in 10 healthy male subjects (22-34 years old). Salt balance was determined in 24-hour urine, and plasma potassium and sodium were measured. Volunteers were hospitalized for 1 night, and at 8 a.m. the next morning they were subjected to the following postural changes: 3 h active orthostasis and 3 h recumbency. Frequent blood samples were taken. Orthostasis induced a significant rise in PRC, PRA and aldosterone already after 15 min. PRC and PRA reached a maximum level after 90 min of orthostasis and remained relatively stable, while aldosterone reached its highest level already after 30 min and then gradually decreased. Significant correlations were found between PRA and PRC (p < 0.001), between PRC and aldosterone (p < 0.001), and between PRA and aldosterone (p < 0.001). The PRC/PRA ratio changed during the course of the test, especially in supine subjects. When subjects returned to the supine position, all the parameters measured began a continual decrease. There were no significant changes in serum potassium and sodium levels throughout the duration of the test.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Apolipoprotein E-knockout (ApoE-KO) mice develop advanced atherosclerotic lesions by 1 yr of age and have been well characterized pathologically and morphologically, but little is known regarding their cardiovascular physiology and hemodynamics. We used noninvasive Doppler ultrasound to measure aortic and mitral blood velocity and aortic pulse-wave velocity in 13-mo-old ApoE-KO and wild-type (WT) mice anesthetized with isoflurane. In other mice from the same colony, we measured systolic blood pressure, body weight, heart weight, cholesterol, and hematocrit. Heart rate and blood pressure were comparable (P = not significant) between ApoE-KO and WT mice, but significant decreases (P < 0.001) were found in body weight (-22%) and hematocrit (-11%), and significant increases were found in heart weight (+23%), aortic velocity (+60%), mitral velocity (+81%) (all P < 0.001), and pulse-wave velocity (+13%, P < 0.05). We also found inflections in the aortic arch velocity signal consistent with enhanced peripheral wave reflection. Thus ApoE-KO mice have phenotypic alterations in indexes of peripheral vascular resistance and compliance and significantly elevated cardiac outflow velocities and heart weight-to-body weight ratios. 相似文献
