Journal ArticleDOI

Power spectral analysis of heart rate and arterial pressure variabilities as a marker of sympatho-vagal interaction in man and conscious dog.

TL;DR: The spontaneous beat-to-beat oscillation in R-R interval during control recumbent position, 90° upright tilt, controlled respiration and acute and chronic β-adrenergic receptor blockade was analyzed, indicating that sympathetic nerves to the heart are instrumental in the genesis of low-frequency oscillations in R -R interval.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cardiovascular neural regulation explored in the frequency domain.

TL;DR: It is the opinion that rhythms and neural components always interact, just like flexor and extensor tones or excitatory and inhibitory cardiovascular reflexes, and that it is misleading to separately consider vagal and sympathetic modulations of heart rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Continuous 24-hour assessment of the neural regulation of systemic arterial pressure and RR variabilities in ambulant subjects.

TL;DR: Noninvasive studies confirmed the early morning rise of the markers of sympathetic activity and the circadian pattern of sympathovagal balance, and data indicate that the ominously increased rate of cardiovascular events in the morning hours may reflect the sudden rise of sympatheticactivity and the reduction of vagal tone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heart Rate Variability as an Index of Sympathovagal Interaction After Acute Myocardial Infarction

TL;DR: Data indicate that the sympathetic predominance that is detectable 2 weeks after AMI is followed by recovery of vagal tone and a normalization of sympathovagal interaction, not only during resting conditions, but also in response to a sympathetic stimulus.
