Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiovascular variability after arousal from sleep: time-varying spectral analysis.
TL;DR: The findings suggest that 1) arousal-induced changes in parasympathetic activity are strongly coupled to respiratory pattern and 2) the sympathoexcitatory cardiovascular effects of arousal are relatively long lasting and may accumulate if repetitive arousals occur in close succession.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of hypoxia on the hypopnoeic and apnoeic threshold for CO2 in sleeping humans
TL;DR: It is concluded that hypoxia causes a narrowing of the difference between the baseline PET,CO2 and the hypopnoea/apnoeic threshold PET, CO2, which could increase the likelihood of ventilatory instability.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of lung inflation on pulmonary resistance during NREM sleep.
TL;DR: It is concluded that alteration in lung volume within the tidal volume range significantly alters pulmonary resistance during NREM sleep, and may be related to traction on neck structures caused by descent of mediastinal structures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural mechanism of the pressor response to obstructive and nonobstructive apnea.
TL;DR: The acute pressor response to obstructive and nonobstructive voluntary apnea is sympathetically mediated, and the hypothesis that apnea-induced pressor responses are neurally mediated is tested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiorespiratory Effects of Added Dead Space in Patients With Heart Failure and Central Sleep Apnea
TL;DR: DS stabilized CSA and improved sleep quality in patients with CHF without significant acute adverse effects on the cardiovascular function.
