The present study investigated the circulatory responses to two mental tasks. Forty males and females performed a mental subtraction task and a color-word task. During each task, the systolic and diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, heart rate, stroke volume, cardiac output, and total peripheral resistance were measured as cardiovascular indices for a 5-min baseline, a 5-min task period, and a 10-min recovery period. As for the results, three hemodynamic reactivity patterns were verified: Pattern C, characterized by increased cardiac output and decreased total peripheral resistance; Pattern M, characterized by a moderate increase in both cardiac output and total peripheral resistance; and Pattern V, characterized by increased total peripheral resistance and decreased cardiac output. Also, four response types were found among all subjects: Type 1: cardiovascular responses showed the cardiac pattern for both tasks; Type 2: cardiovascular responses changed between the cardiac pattern and the mixed pattern with a change of tasks; Type 3: cardiovascular responses showed the mixed pattern for both tasks; Type 4: cardiovascular responses changed between the mixed pattern and the vascular pattern with a change of tasks. The comparison between types showed that Type 3 and Type 4 had an elevation in their blood pressure by an increased total peripheral resistance. On the other hand, Type 1 and Type 2 tended to have an increased blood pressure by a rise in their cardiac output. And Type 3 and Type 4 showed higher blood pressure and higher scores on the Type A behavior pattern questionnaire. In conclusion, at least four types of circulation response to the mental tasks existed, with Type 3 and Type 4 having higher blood pressure responses and tending to have an elevated blood pressure by a rise in their total peripheral resistance. 相似文献

Dissociation between adrenocorticotropin and corticosterone responses to restraint after previous chronic exposure to stress 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect on emotional reactivity produced by a model for chronic stress in which different types of acute stresses were randomly combined for 29 days was studied in adult male rats. Chronically stressed rats showed a slight decrease in body weight gain and an increase in relative adrenal weight. Chronic stress did not modify defecation rate but reduced exploratory activity in the holeboard. Neither basal nor acute-stress induced levels of adrenocorticotropin (ACTH) were modified by previous chronic stress. Likewise, basal corticosterone levels were similar in both groups. However, corticosterone response to acute restraint stress was higher in chronically stressed than in control rats. The mechanisms underlying the dissociation between ACTH and corticosterone as well as its possible implications are discussed. 相似文献

Autonomic responses may underlie associations among anxiety, vestibular dysfunction, and unexplained syncope. Mental stress (MS), an anxiety-inducing stimulus, causes forearm vasodilation, whereas the vestibulosympathetic reflex (VSR) causes forearm vasoconstriction. The purpose of this study was to examine the combined effects of mental and vestibular stimulation on neurovascular control in the forearm. Heart rate, arterial pressure (Finapres), and forearm blood flow (Doppler) were measured in 10 healthy volunteers in the prone position during 1) head-down rotation (HDR), 2) MS (mental arithmetic), and 3) HDR + MS. Forearm vascular resistance (FVR) increased during HDR (from 232 +/- 40 to 319 +/- 53 units) and decreased during MS (from 260 +/- 57 to 154 +/- 22 units). During HDR + MS, FVR did not change [change (Delta) = -31 +/- 50 units] and was not significantly different from the algebraic sum of each trial performed alone (Delta = -20 +/- 42 units). Arm muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA; microneurography) was measured in seven additional subjects. MSNA increased during HDR (from 13 +/- 2 to 17 +/- 2 bursts/min) and HDR + MS (from 11 +/- 2 to 16 +/- 2 bursts/min). Increases in MSNA during HDR + MS (Delta = 5 +/- 2 bursts/min) were not different from the algebraic sum of each trial performed alone (Delta = 6 +/- 2 bursts/min). We conclude that an additive neurovascular interaction exists between MS and the VSR in the forearm. Activation of the VSR prevented forearm vasodilation during MS, suggesting that activation of the VSR may help protect against stress-induced syncope. 相似文献

As human development expands,environments are increasingly exposed to anthropogenic noise which may disrupt animals in a variety of ways.Anthropogenic noise can be disruptive both as a source of auditory masking,which prevents animals from acquiring acoustic information(Brumm and Slabbekoorn 2005),or as a source of distraction,reallocating an individual's attention and impairing an animal's ability to engage in critical behaviors such as prey risk assessment(Chan et al.2010). 相似文献

Neurovascular responses to mental stress have been linked to several cardiovascular diseases, including hypertension. Mean arterial pressure (MAP), muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), and forearm vascular responses to mental stress are well documented in normotensive (NT) subjects, but responses in prehypertensive (PHT) subjects remain unclear. We tested the hypothesis that PHT would elicit a more dramatic increase of MAP during mental stress via augmented MSNA and blunted forearm vascular conductance (FVC). We examined 17 PHT (systolic 120-139 and/or diastolic 80-89 mmHg; 22 ± 1 yr) and 18 NT (systolic < 120 and diastolic < 80 mmHg; 23 ± 2 yr) subjects. Heart rate, MAP, MSNA, FVC, and calf vascular conductance were measured during 5 min of baseline and 5 min of mental stress (mental arithmetic). Mental stress increased MAP and FVC in both groups, but the increases in MAP were augmented (Δ 10 ± 1 vs. Δ14 ± 1 mmHg; P < 0.05), and the increases in FVC were blunted (Δ95 ± 14 vs. Δ37 ± 8%; P < 0.001) in PHT subjects. Mental stress elicited similar increases in MSNA (Δ7 ± 2 vs. Δ6 ± 2 bursts/min), heart rate (Δ21 ± 3 vs. Δ18 ± 3 beats/min), and calf vascular conductance (Δ29 ± 10 vs. Δ19 ± 5%) in NT and PHT subjects, respectively. In conclusion, mental stress elicits an augmented pressor response in PHT subjects. This augmentation appears to be associated with altered forearm vascular, but not MSNA, responses to mental stress. 相似文献

There are currently no comparison measurements of stress‐induced changes in vascular function during acute mental stress tests to measurements made by BIOPAC MP150 systems technology, a standard polygraph device used to detect deception during polygraph examinations in military or law enforcement applications. Vascular responses to reactive hyperaemia and acute mental stress in 25 healthy subjects were measured by both peripheral arterial tonometry (EndoPAT) and a blood pressure cuff attached to a pressure transducer (BIOPAC) and compared. Reactive hyperaemia was performed at baseline and following three acute mental stress tests. There was no difference in vascular reactivity at baseline and following acute mental stress, as measured by EndoPAT or BIOPAC systems (p > 0·05). Mental stress ratios measured by EndoPAT were significantly different than those measured by BIOPAC (p < 0·01). These data suggest that EndoPAT measurements of vascular responses to acute mental stress may be more specific and sensitive than measurements using the BIOPAC system.

Astronauts usually work under much mental stress. However, it is unclear how and whether or not an exposure to microgravity affects physiological response to mental stress in humans. To examine effects of microgravity on vasomotor sympathetic and peripheral vasodilator responses to mental stress, we performed 10 min of mental arithmetic (MA) before and after 14 days of 6 degrees head-down bed rest (HDBR), a ground-based simulation of spaceflight. Total muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA, measured by microneurography) slightly increased during MA before HDBR, and this increase was augmented after HDBR. Calf blood flow (measured by venous occlusion plethysmography) increased and calf vascular resistance (calculated by dividing mean blood pressure by calf blood flow) decreased during MA before HDBR, but these responses were abolished after HDBR. Increases in heart rate and mean blood pressure during MA were not different between before and after HDBR. These findings suggest that HDBR augmented vasomotor sympathoexcitation but attenuated vasodilatation in the calf muscle in response to mental stress. 相似文献

This study was intended to determine the effects of continuous bright light exposure on cardiovascular responses, particularly heart rate variability (HRV), at rest and during performance of mental tasks with acute nocturnal sleep deprivation. Eight healthy male subjects stayed awake from 21.00 to 04.30 hours under bright (BL, 2800 lux) or dim (DL, 120 lux) light conditions. During sleep deprivation, mental tasks (Stroop color-word conflict test: CWT) were performed for 15 min each hour. Blood pressure, electrocardiogram, respiratory rate, urinary melatonin concentrations and rectal temperature were measured. During sleep deprivation, BL exposure depressed melatonin secretion in comparison to DL conditions. During sleep deprivation, exposure to BL delayed the decline in heart rate (HR) for 4 h in resting periods. A significant increment of HR induced by each CWT was detected, especially at 03.00 h and later, under DL conditions only. In addition, at 04.00 h, an index of sympathetic activity and sympatho-vagal balance on HRV during CWT increased significantly under DL conditions. In contrast, an index of parasympathetic activity during CWT decreased significantly under DL conditions. However, the indexes of HRV during CWT did not change throughout sleep deprivation under BL conditions. Our results suggest that BL exposure not only delays the nocturnal decrease in HR at rest but also maintains HR and balance of cardiac autonomic modulation to mental tasks during nocturnal sleep deprivation. 相似文献

In animal studies, acupuncture has been shown to be sympathoinhibitory, but it is unknown if acupuncture is sympathoinhibitory in humans. Nineteen healthy volunteers underwent mental stress testing pre- and postacupuncture. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA), blood pressure, and heart rate during mental stress were compared pre- and postacupuncture. Control acupuncture consisted of acupuncture at nonacupoints and "no-needle" acupuncture. Acupuncture had no effect on resting MSNA, blood pressure, or heart rate. After real acupuncture, the increase in mean arterial pressure (pre- vs. postacupuncture 4.5 vs. 1.7 mmHg, P < 0.001), but not MSNA or heart rate, was blunted during mental stress. Similarly, following nonacupoint acupuncture, the increase in mean arterial pressure was blunted during mental stress (5.4 vs. 2.9 mmHg, P < 0.0003). No-needle acupuncture had no effect on these variables. In conclusion, acupuncture at traditional acupoints, nonacupoints, and no-needle acupuncture does not modulate baseline MSNA or MSNA responses to mental stress in normal humans. Acupuncture significantly attenuates the increase in blood pressure during mental stress. Needling nonacupoints, but not "no-needle" acupuncture, have a similar effect on blood pressure. 相似文献

Human subjects were exposed for two (or three) sessions to the same runs of 103 dB (A) pink noise-steps alternating with 40 dB (A) low level pink noise. From one session to the following their cardiovascular responses seem to achieve an adjustment. Differences between them depend on two features: (1) some of them achieve a negative feedback reaction from the second exposure, when in others such a reaction is delayed until the third exposure; (2) parallelism or opposition between evolutions of heart rate and arterial blood pressure respectively. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine neurovascular responses to mental stress (MS) in the supine and upright postures. MS was elicited in 23 subjects (26 +/- 1 yr) by 5 min of mental arithmetic. In study 1 (n = 9), Doppler ultrasound was used to measure mean blood flow velocity in the renal (RBFV) and superior mesenteric arteries (SMBFV), and venous occlusion plethysmography was used to measure forearm blood flow (FBF). In study 2 (n = 14), leg blood flow (LBF; n = 9) was measured by Doppler ultrasound, and muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA; n = 5) was measured by microneurography. At rest, upright posture increased heart rate and MSNA and decreased LBF, FBF, RBFV, and SMBFV and their respective conductances. MS elicited similar increases in mean arterial blood pressure ( approximately 12 mmHg) and heart rate ( approximately 17 beats/min), regardless of posture. MS in both postures elicited a decrease in RBFV, SMBFV, and their conductances and an increase in LBF, FBF, and their conductances. Changes in blood flow were blunted in the upright posture in all vascular beds examined, but the pattern of the vascular response was the same as the supine posture. MS did not change MSNA in either posture (change: approximately 1 +/- 3 and approximately 3 +/- 3 bursts/min, respectively). In conclusion, the augmented sympathetic activity of the upright posture does not alter heart rate, mean arterial blood pressure, or MSNA responses to MS. MS elicits divergent vascular responses in the visceral and peripheral vasculature. These results indicate that, although the upright posture attenuates vascular responses to MS, the pattern of neurovascular responses does not differ between postures. 相似文献

Cardiovascular and sympathoadrenal responses to a reproducible mental stress test were investigated in eight healthy young men before and during intravenous infusion of the nitric oxide (NO) synthesis inhibitor N-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA). Before L-NMMA, stress responses included significant increases in heart rate, mean arterial pressure, and cardiac output (CO) and decreases in systemic and forearm vascular resistance. Arterial plasma norepinephrine (NE) increased. At rest after 30 min of infusion of L-NMMA (0.3 mg.kg(-1).min(-1) iv), mean arterial pressure increased from 98 +/- 4 to 108 +/- 3 mmHg (P <0.001) because of an increase in systemic vascular resistance from 12.9 +/- 0.5 to 18.5 +/- 0.9 units (P <0.001). CO decreased from 7.7 +/- 0.4 to 5.9 +/- 0.3 l/min (P <0.01). Arterial plasma NE decreased from 2.08 +/- 0.16 to 1.47 +/- 0.14 nmol/l. Repeated mental stress during continued infusion of L-NMMA (0.15 mg.kg(-1).min(-1)) induced qualitatively similar cardiovascular responses, but there was a marked attenuation of the increase in mean arterial blood pressure, resulting in similar "steady-state" blood pressures during mental stress without and with NO blockade. Increases in heart rate and CO were attenuated, but stress-induced decreases in systemic and forearm vascular resistance were essentially unchanged. Arterial plasma NE increased less than during the first stress test. Thus the increased arterial tone at rest during L-NMMA infusion is compensated for by attenuated increases in blood pressure during mental stress, mainly through a markedly attenuated CO response and suppressed sympathetic nerve activity. 相似文献

Aim We tested whether variation in snapshots of butterfly species composition and species richness taken from one to six years apart could be interpreted as an ecologically meaningful trend or whether they might merely reflect stochasticity. Location Field research was conducted in the Toquima Range and Shoshone Mountains, Lander and Nye counties, Nevada, USA. Methods We obtained data for 49 sites in the Toquima Range from 1996 to 2002 and 39 sites in the Shoshone Mountains from 2000 to 2002. Sites spanned the gradient of local topographic and climatic conditions in those mountain ranges. Data on species composition and species richness were based on comprehensive field inventories. We calculated similarity of species composition using the Jaccard index. We conducted one‐factor repeated‐measures analyses of variance to test whether the distribution of similarity of species composition and the distribution of mean species richness depended on the number of years between inventories. Results In both mountain ranges, much less of the difference in species composition was attributable to turnover of species composition within sites over time than to spatial differences among sites. Annual species richness in the Toquima Range was more variable than in the Shoshone Mountains, but again far less of the variation in species richness was attributable to year than to differences among sites. Main conclusions Despite the fact that desert ecosystems are not expected to be highly resilient to global environmental change, there may be a time lag between deterministic environmental changes and a detectable faunal response, even in taxonomic groups that are known to be sensitive to changes in climate and vegetation. Although information on species richness and similarity of species composition are among the most practical data to collect in managed landscapes, these measures may not be highly sensitive to environmental changes over the short to moderate term. 相似文献

Auditory evoked responses in awake rabbits after exposure to high intensity noise impulses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Impulse noise effects were tested in chronic experiments on 8 awake rabbits. Alterations of cochlear potentials and evoked responses from the inferior collinulus and the medial geniculate body were studied. The rabbits were subsequently exposed to 10 noise impulses of 144 dB SPL, then (after recovery) to 10 impulses of 153 and 164 dB SPL. After exposure the amplitudes of all potentials were reduced. Time of restitution depended on the intensity of the noise, the restitution failed after exposure to 164 dB SPL impulses. Time lapses of the amplitude-reduction and restitution process were comparable for both structures of the auditory pathway. The peak latencies were prolonged significantly in only two of the rabbits after this impulse intensity. Impulses of 164 dB SPL were followed by irreversible changes of all evoked responses. 相似文献

A method is described to test the predictability of impulse responses from responses to Gaussiandistributed random stimulation by means of the reverse correlation analysis. In addition, this analysis is tested as to whether it can handle responses of nonlinear systems to random inputs of strongly limited frequency content, which is often the case in data from physiological experiments. The basis for all computation is a simple backward averaging (peri-spike averaging, Istorder PSA) of the noise input triggered from the output pulsatile events, which was extended to two-dimensional peri-spike averaging (2nd-order PSA). These functions were shown to represent the 1st- and 2nd-order Wiener kernel and were taken to calculate the 1st-and 2nd-order response predictions to a given short random test sequence. Different models of impulse-initiating mechanisms were tested for their expression of nonlinearities in these PSAs. Output impulse densities of test sequence (the observed response) could be fairly well approximated by the result of the computations (the predicted response). The difference between observation and prediction was evaluated and expressed as the mean-least squares error. In some of the data the 2nd-order kernel seems sufficient to account for the major nonlinear component, in others, kernels of orders higher than two. 相似文献

The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis becomes less responsive to some types of repeated stress over time, a process termed habituation. Many facets of the stressful stimulus can modify such HPA responses to stressors, such as predictability and controllability. However, the physical context in which the stressor occurred may also provide a discriminative stimulus that can affect the HPA response to that stressor. In the present study, we examined whether a change in the context in which stress exposure occurs can alter HPA responses to a subsequent [corrected] homotypic stressor. Three separate contexts were produced by manipulating odor cues. Rats housed in the 3 context rooms exhibited similar HPA responses to acute 30-min restraint or repeated (8th) 30-min restraint in their home environments. However, rats that were restrained for 30 min per day for 7 days in a room in one context and then restrained on day 8 in a novel context exhibited attenuated habituation compared to rats restrained on day 8 in the familiar context. These results provide evidence that repeated stress-induced HPA activity depends, in part, on the context in which the stress is experienced. 相似文献
