The effects of oral administration of caffeine (10 mg/kg) on plasma free 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethyleneglycol (MHPG) levels, behavioral ratings, blood pressure, and autonomic symptoms was determined in eleven healthy subjects. Caffeine produced robust increases in subject rated anxiety and nervousness and small elevations in blood pressure and a decrease in heart rate. Caffeine did not alter plasma MHPG in a consistent fashion and there was no correlation between changes in plasma MHPG and changes in anxiety or other ratings. Caffeine may produce symptoms of anxiety-nervousness without increasing central norepinephrine turnover.  相似文献

Five physiological measurements were recorded while 20 males Ss listened to a series of tones in two body positions (horizontal and vertical). Half the Ss were tested in the horizontal position, then raised to a vertical position. The other half were tested vertically first. The results showed body position significantly influenced basal levels for heart rate (HR), finger volume (FV), skin resistance (SR) and blood pressure (BP). In the vertical position, sympathetic arousal was higher than in the horizontal position. In addition, the sequence in which a S was tested influenced physiological activity in the two body positions. It was concluded that both resting levels and pretest activity levels are important variables to consider in research on physiological differences in psychiatric populations.  相似文献

Effects of betel chewing on the central and autonomic nervous systems   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
Betel chewing has been claimed to produce a sense of well-being, euphoria, heightened alertness, sweating, salivation, a hot sensation in the body and increased capacity to work. Betel chewing also leads to habituation, addiction and withdrawal. However, the mechanisms underlying these effects remain poorly understood. Arecoline, the major alkaloid of Areca nut, has been extensively studied, and several effects of betel chewing are thought to be related to the actions of this parasympathomimetic constituent. However, betel chewing may produce complex reactions and interactions. In the presence of lime, arecoline and guvacoline in Areca nut are hydrolyzed into arecaidine and guvacine, respectively, which are strong inhibitors of GABA uptake. Piper betle flower or leaf contains aromatic phenolic compounds which have been found to stimulate the release of catecholamines in vitro. Thus, betel chewing may affect parasympathetic, GABAnergic and sympathetic functions. Betel chewing produces an increase in heart rate, blood pressure, sweating and body temperature. In addition, EEG shows widespread cortical desynchronization indicating a state of arousal. In autonomic function tests, both the sympathetic skin response and RR interval variation are affected. Betel chewing also increases plasma concentrations of norepinephrine and epinephrine. These results suggest that betel chewing mainly affects the central and autonomic nervous systems. Future studies should investigate both the acute and chronic effects of betel chewing. Such studies may further elucidate the psychoactive mechanisms responsible for the undiminished popularity of betel chewing since antiquity.  相似文献

It is known that heart rate, oxygen uptake and body temperature during exercise in water are affected by water temperature, buoyancy and so on. Relaxation in water (supine floating) has been performed in hydrotherapy and aqua exercise. But there were few reports about supine floating (Schulz and Kaspar 1994). The purpose of this study was to make clear the effects of supine floating on heart rate, blood pressure and cardiac autonomic nervous system activity in males.  相似文献

The effects of autonomic disruption and inactivity were studied on the venous vascular system. Forty-eight subjects, 24 with spinal cord injury (SCI) and 12 sedentary and 12 active able-bodied controls, participated in this study. Peripheral autonomic data were obtained to estimate sympathetic vasomotor control [low-frequency component of systolic blood pressure (LF(SBP))]. Vascular parameters were determined using strain-gauge venous occlusion plethysmography: venous capacitance (VC), venous emptying rate (VER), and total venous outflow (VO(t)). An additional vascular parameter was calculated: venous compliance [(VC/occlusion pressure) x 100]. VC and VO(t) were significantly different (SCI < sedentary < active). VER adjusted for VC was not different for any group comparison, whereas venous compliance was significantly lower in the SCI group than in the able-bodied groups and in the sedentary group compared with the active group. Regression analysis for the total group revealed a significant relationship between LF(SBP) and venous compliance (r = 0.64, P < 0.0001). After controlling for LF(SBP) through analysis of covariance, we found that mean differences for all venous vascular parameters did not change from unadjusted mean values. Our findings suggest that in subjects with SCI, the loss of sympathetic vasomotor tone contributes more than inactivity to reductions in venous vascular function. Heightened VC, VO(t), vasomotor tone, and venous compliance in the active group compared with the sedentary group imply that regular endurance training contributes to optimal venous vascular function and peripheral autonomic integrity.  相似文献

It is well known that heart rate, oxygen uptake and body temperature during exercise in water are affected by water temperature, buoyancy, hydrostatic and so on. It has been reported that the central blood volume during immersion was affected by the increased external hydrostatic pressure and cold-induced peripheral vasoconstriction, and intrathoratic blood volume should be greater during cold than warm water immersion (Epstein, 1992). The purpose of this presentation study was to make clear heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen uptake and cardiac autonomic nervous system modulation during supine floating at water temperatures of 25, 35 and 41 degrees C.  相似文献

The effects on sleep pattern ('short-sleep' versus 'long-sleep') and subjective sleep disturbance of genotype, personality, symptoms of anxiety and depression, and lifestyle, were examined using survey data on a clinically unselected sample of adult Australian twin pairs, aged 17-88 years. When the effects of genotype, personality and symptoms were ignored, lifestyle variables appeared to account for roughly 4% of the variance in sleep disturbance, and 9% of the variance in sleep pattern. Significant genetic effects on sleep disturbance and sleep pattern were found, which were only partly explained by the effects of personality and symptoms of anxiety and depression. Much of the association between sleep disturbance and lifestyle appeared to be explained by separate effects of personality and symptoms of anxiety and depression on sleep and lifestyle ('genotype-risk-factor correlation'). There was little evidence for genetically determined differences in sensitivity to the lifestyle variables ('genotype x risk-factor interaction').  相似文献

Decapod crustaceans with normal heart function respond to the increased oxygen delivery requirements during walking with a step increase in heart and ventilation rate. In American lobsters, ventilation rate increased by the same amount during exercise at two walking speeds (2.4 and 8 m min(-1)); however, ventilation volume was significantly greater at the fastest walking speed (280 mL min(-1)) compared to animals at rest or walking at the slower speed (180 mL min(-1)). The heart responded in a similar manner to locomotion. Heart rate was elevated to the same level at the two different walking speeds, but cardiac stroke volume was greater, implying increased cardiac output, at the faster walking speed. The communication and compensation between the cardiac and ventilatory systems was revealed when the function of one was impaired. Ventilatory rate was significantly elevated when cardiac output was impaired by sectioning two of the alary ligaments and/or the regulatory nerves to the heart. When cardiac output was more severely impaired, ventilation rate was greater. Despite ventilatory compensation, anaerobic metabolism made a greater contribution to energy production with impaired heart function. Hemolymph lactate concentration was three to five times greater in impaired animals than controls. It is known that the ventilatory and cardiac systems of lobsters are coregulated. These data demonstrate that the performance of one system can respond to compensate for impaired function in the other.  相似文献

The effects of oral carbohydrate on modulating counterregulatory responses in humans remain undecided. This study's specific aim was to determine the effects of oral carbohydrate on autonomic nervous system (ANS) and neuroendocrine responses during hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia and euglycemia. Nineteen healthy volunteers were studied during paired, single blind experiments. Nine subjects underwent two-step glucose clamps consisting of 60 min of euglycemia (5.0 mmol/l) followed by either 15 g of oral carbohydrate (cal) as orange juice or a noncaloric control (nocal) and subsequent 90 min of clamped hypoglycemia (2.9 mmol/l). Ten other subjects underwent two randomized 150-min hyperinsulinemic-euglycemic clamps with cal or nocal control administered at 60 min. Oral carbohydrate initially blunted (P < 0.05) epinephrine, norepinephrine, cortisol, glucagon, pancreatic polypeptide, muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), symptom, and systolic blood pressure responses during hypoglycemia. However, by the end of 90 min of hypoglycemia, plasma epinephrine and norepinephrine responses had rebounded and were increased (P < 0.05) compared with control. MSNA and cortisol levels remained suppressed during hypoglycemia (P < 0.05) after cal, whereas pancreatic polypeptide, glucagon, symptom, and blood pressure responses increased similar to control following initial suppression. Oral carbohydrate had no effects on neuroendocrine or ANS responses during hyperinsulinemic euglycemia. These results demonstrate that oral carbohydrate can have differential effects on the time course of ANS and neuroendocrine responses during hypoglycemia. We conclude that gastro-splanchnic-portal sensing of an amount of carbohydrate recommended for use in clinical practice for correction of hypoglycemia can have widespread and significant effects on central nervous system mediated counterregulatory responses in healthy humans.  相似文献

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) containing 6 amino acid residues belongs to peptides widely spread in the central and peripheral nervous system. NPY and its receptors play an extremely diverse role in the nervous system, including regulation of satiety, of emotional state, of vascular tone, and of gastrointestinal secretion. In mammals, NPY has been revealed in the majority of sympathetic ganglion neurons, in a high number of neurons of parasympathetic cranial ganglia as well as of intramural ganglia of the metasympathetic nervous system. At present, six types of receptors to NPY (Y1–Y6) have been identified. All receptors to NPY belong to the family of G-bound proteins. Actions of NPY on peripheral organs-targets are predominantly realized through postsynaptic receptors Y1, Y3–Y5, and presynaptic receptors of the Y2 type. NPY is present in large electrondense vesicles and is released at high-frequency stimulation. NPY affects not only vascular tone, frequency and strength of heart contractions, motorics and secretion of the gastrointestinal tract, but also has trophic effect and produces proliferation of cells of organs-targets, specifically of vessels, myocardium, and adipose tissue. In early postnatal ontogenesis the percent of the NPY-containing neurons in ganglia of the autonomic nervous system increases. In senescent organisms, this parameter decreases. This seems to be connected with the trophic NPY effect on cell-targets as well as with regulation of their functional state.  相似文献

The effect of olfactory stimuli was determined on students (men and women) with different tones of the autonomic nervous system under moderate psychoemotional stress conditions (before an academic test). It was found that the direction of changes in the heart rate variability values of students after olfactory stimulation is determined by the initial tone of the autonomic nervous system. The conclusion was made that olfactory stimuli may be used for correcting psychoemotional stress in students more efficiently if the tone of the autonomic nervous system is taken into consideration.  相似文献

There has been much investigation into the use of music as an ergogenic aid to facilitate physical performance. However, previous studies have primarily focused on predetermined music and aerobic exercise. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of self-selected music (SSM) vs. those of no music (NM) on the mood and performance of the athletes performing bench press and squat jump. Twenty resistance trained collegiate men completed 2 experimental conditions, one while listening to SSM and the other with NM. The subjects reported their profile of mood states (POMS) and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) before and after performing 3 sets to failure of the bench press at 75% 1 repetition maximum (1RM) and 3 reps of the squat jump at 30% 1RM. Statistical analyses revealed no differences in squat jump height or relative ground reaction force, but the takeoff velocity (SSM-2.06 ± 0.17 m·s(-1); NM-1.99 ± 0.18 m·s(-1)), rate of velocity development (SSM-5.92 ± 1.46 m·s(-2); NM-5.63 ± 1.70 m·s(-2)), and rate of force development (SSM-3175.61 ± 1792.37 N·s(-1); NM-2519.12 ± 1470.32 N·s(-1)) were greater with SSM, whereas RPE (SSM-5.71 ± 1.37; NM-6.36 ± 1.61) was greater with NM. Bench press reps to failure and RPE were not different between conditions. The POMS scores of vigor (SSM-20.15 ± 5.58; NM-17.45 ± 5.84), tension (SSM-8.40 ± 3.99; NM-6.07 ± 3.26), and fatigue (SSM-8.65 ± 4.49; NM-7.40 ± 4.38) were greater with SSM. This study demonstrated increased performance during an explosive exercise and an altered mood state when listening to SSM. Therefore, listening to SSM might be beneficial for acute power performance.  相似文献

This article evaluates the influence of gender on diurnal and postlunch period variations in subjective activation and mood. This topic is not often addressed in the literature; particularly, little attention has been paid to how biological rhythms might bias research results. We studied 40 university student volunteers (20 men, 20 women) aged 18 to 23 years old (X = 20.23, SD = 1.03); they responded to questions on eight unipolar visual analog scales every hour from 08:00 to 21:00. Gender differences were observed in both diurnal and postlunch variations for scales of positive activation (alertness, vigor); sleepiness, however, was only sensitive to diurnal variation, and weariness was sensitive only to a postlunch effect. Women displayed a morning- type pattern, with their optimal moment (11:00) coming 2h earlier than for men, and their activation ratings ranged more widely. The only mood scale that showed differences related to gender was that of happiness, for which women had a higher diurnal mean, a diurnal peak 2h earlier, and a less-intense postlunch effect. Endogenous control of rhythmic pattern appears to be less intense in women, probably due to the coexistence of circamensual rhythmicity, although environmental or sociocultural influences may play a modulating role. Chronopsychological gender differences in affective states should be studied further given the implication they have for the prevention and treatment of mood disorders.

The changes in the parameters of P300 cognitive evoked potentials, the psychological and emotional state, and heart rate variability parameters reflecting the characteristics of autonomic regulation during polysensory physiotherapeutic recovery treatment were studied. A single treatment with combined polysensory stimuli resulted in substantial activation of sympathetic regulation of the heart rate, improvement of the emotional state, and an increase in the P300 amplitude in the central frontal areas, which indicates activation of cognitive processes.  相似文献

A number of studies have documented subjective improvement in somatic and psychological symptoms following breast reduction surgery. Objective data demonstrating improved postoperative function have been more difficult to assess, and particularly with respect to pulmonary function, the results have been contradictory. In this prospective study, patients completed a comprehensive preoperative questionnaire modified from the American Thoracic Society Division of Lung Diseases Epidemiology Standardization Project (1978). This questionnaire noted subjective pulmonary symptoms and pulmonary medical history. In addition, subjective symptoms related to breast size, including back and neck pain and shoulder pain and grooving, and a subjective evaluation of body image, were evaluated. All subjects received preoperative pulmonary function testing, including spirometry, lung volume measurements, and measurement of peak inspiratory and expiratory flow rates and pressures. Eight weeks after breast reduction, a repeat questionnaire and pulmonary function testing were administered. Preoperative and postoperative pulmonary function values were compared using Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel tests, and correlations were tested between changes in pulmonary function test values and subjective symptom improvement. Forty-four patients underwent an average of 2228-g bilateral reduction. All of these patients had their surgical procedures preauthorized as medically necessary by their insurance carriers. All subjective parameters examined were statistically significantly improved following breast reduction (p < 0.001). Of the 17 patients with preoperative complaints of shortness of breath, all noted significant improvement following breast reduction surgery (p < 0.001). Of the objective pulmonary criteria evaluated, inspiratory capacity, peak expiratory flow rate, and maximal voluntary ventilation showed a statistically significant improvement following surgery (p < 0.05). These changes correlated with body mass index; the greater the index, the greater the change in maximal voluntary ventilation and peak expiratory flow rate. Smokers in this group had the largest change in maximal voluntary ventilation (p < 0.008). No correlation could be found between preoperative pulmonary symptoms, a single subjective symptom, or grams of breast weight reduction and changes in pulmonary function tests. The results show that pulmonary parameters, related primarily to work of breathing (inspiratory capacity, maximal voluntary ventilation, peak expiratory flow rate), were statistically improved following breast reduction surgery, and these changes correlated with body mass index.  相似文献
