Introduction: The baroreceptor reflex mediated heart rate response is generally estimated by complex cross-spectral analysis (transfer function gain) between R-R interval and systolic blood pressure ...

Winter’s up ahead, and low temperatures cause blood vessels to constrict and increase blood pressure (BP). The question is how these mechanical changes in blood vessels are translated to the brain?

Introduction: The baroreceptor reflex (BR) is the most prominent short-term compensator during blood pressure (BP) challenges. Aim: To study the effect of postconceptional age (PCA, gestational age + ...

Blood pressure modulates a person's tendency to worry and can be associated with a "tranquilizing" effect when elevated. This is indicated in a new study that reflects how we can implicitly learn to ...

The baroreceptor reflex is a fascinating medical phenomenon. The reflex is controlled by specialized neurons that react in just a fraction of a second to keep blood pressure fairly consistent. For ...

Pharmacology researchers found that a recently identified enzyme in the brain plays a critically important role in the central regulation of blood pressure. The researchers showed that ...

The physiologic mechanisms involved in the human's adaptation to endurance exercise training result in the endurance exercise trained individual having high maximal oxygen uptakes (V͘O2max) and being ...

What is the treatment for this heart rhythm disorder? Does it ever indicate any clinical pathology? What is the physiologic mechanism of this phenomenon? Sinus arrhythmia, if not in a young person and ...
