Journal ArticleDOI
Reflex Regulation of Arterial Pressure during Sleep in Man: A Quantitative Method of Assessing Baroreflex Sensitivity
TL;DR: It is concluded that the baroreceptor reflex are can be rapidly reset, particularly during sleep, and the lower arterial pressures during sleep may be actively maintained in some subjects by increased baroreflex sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diminished Baroreflex Sensitivity in High Blood Pressure
TL;DR: Reduced sensitivity of the baroreflexes in hypertension, with respect to control of heart rate is demonstrated, and a distinction is made between this change in sensitivity and simple resetting of the reflex.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Quantitative Assessment of Baroreceptor Reflex Sensitivity in Man, Awake and Asleep.
TL;DR: An investigation was made of the fall in blood pressure that occurs during a night's sleep, and the stage of sleep was identified from the electroencephalogram (five channels), the electrooculo...
