Abstract
The relationship between exposure to air pollutants and fetal growth outcomes has shown inconsistency, and only a limited number of studies have explored the impact of air pollution on gestational hypertension and birth outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate how maternal exposure to air pollutants and blood pressure could influence fetal birth outcomes. A total of 55 women with gestational hypertension and 131 healthy pregnant women were enrolled in this study. Data pertaining to personal characteristics, prenatal examinations, outdoor air pollutant exposure, and fetal birth outcomes were collected. The study revealed that fetal birth weight and abdominal circumference exhibited a significant reduction among women with gestational hypertension compared to healthy pregnant women, even after adjustments for body mass index, gestational age, and exposure to air pollutants had been made. Moreover, maternal exposure to outdoor air pollutants displayed a notable correlation with decreased birth length of fetuses. Consequently, the study concluded that maternal blood pressure and exposure to outdoor air pollutants during pregnancy potentially stand as pivotal factors influencing fetal birth outcomes.

Duan X, Liu R, Xi Y, Tian Z. The mechanisms of exercise improving cardiovascular function by stimulating Piezo1 and TRP ion channels: a systemic review. Mol Cell Biochem 2024:10.1007/s11010-024-05000-5. [PMID: 38625513 DOI: 10.1007/s11010-024-05000-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Accepted: 03/24/2024] [Indexed: 04/17/2024]
Abstract
Mechanosensitive ion channels are widely distributed in the heart, lung, bladder and other tissues, and plays an important role in exercise-induced cardiovascular function promotion. By reviewing the PubMed databases, the results were summarized using the terms "Exercise/Sport", "Piezo1", "Transient receptor potential (TRP)" and "Cardiovascular" as the keywords, 124-related papers screened were sorted and reviewed. The results showed that: (1) Piezo1 and TRP channels play an important role in regulating blood pressure and the development of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction, and cardiac fibrosis; (2) Exercise promotes cardiac health, inhibits the development of pathological heart to heart failure, regulating the changes in the characterization of Piezo1 and TRP channels; (3) Piezo1 activates downstream signaling pathways with very broad pathways, such as AKT/eNOS, NF-κB, p38MAPK and HIPPO-YAP signaling pathways. Piezo1 and Irisin regulate nuclear localization of YAP and are hypothesized to act synergistically to regulate tissue mechanical properties of the cardiovascular system and (4) The cardioprotective effects of exercise through the TRP family are mostly accomplished through Ca2+ and involve many signaling pathways. TRP channels exert their important cardioprotective effects by reducing the TRPC3-Nox2 complex and mediating Irisin-induced Ca2+ influx through TRPV4. It is proposed that exercise stimulates the mechanosensitive cation channel Piezo1 and TRP channels, which exerts cardioprotective effects. The activation of Piezo1 and TRP channels and their downstream targets to exert cardioprotective function by exercise may provide a theoretical basis for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases and the rehabilitation of clinical patients.

Abstract
Increasing global temperatures due to ongoing climate change phenomena have resulted in increased risk of exertional heat illness in otherwise healthy, young individuals who work or play in the heat. With increasing participation of women in athletic, military and industrial activities that involve exertion in the heat, there is a growing need to study female physiology in this context. Mechanisms controlling blood pressure and body temperature have substantial overlap in humans, largely due to autonomic mechanisms which contribute to both. Similarly, illnesses that result from excessive heat exposure can often be traced back to imbalances in one or more of these autonomic mechanisms. In recent years, there has been increased recognition of the importance of sex as a biological variable for basic and applied research in these areas. The goal of this paper is to present an update on the integrative physiology and pathophysiology of responses to heat stress in women (thermoregulation and blood pressure regulation). In this context, it is often the case that differences between sexes are presented as 'advantages' and 'disadvantages' of one sex over the other. In our opinion, this is an over-simplification of the physiology which ignores the nuances and complexities of the integrative physiology of responses to heat exposure and exercise, and their relevance for practical outcomes.

Abstract
Adipose tissue innervation is critical for regulating metabolic and energy homeostasis. While the sympathetic efferent innervation of fat is well characterized, the role of sensory or afferent innervation remains less explored. This article reviews previous work on adipose innervation and recent advances in the study of sensory innervation of adipose tissues. We discuss key open questions, including the physiological implications of adipose afferents in homeostasis as well as potential cross talk with sympathetic neurons, the immune system, and hormonal pathways. We also outline the general technical challenges of studying dorsal root ganglia innervating fat, along with emerging technologies that may overcome these barriers. Finally, we highlight areas for further research to deepen our understanding of the afferent function of adipose innervation.

Abstract
The cardiovascular system provides blood supply throughout the body and as such is perpetually applying mechanical forces to cells and tissues. Thus, this system is primed with mechanosensory structures that respond and adapt to changes in mechanical stimuli. Since their discovery in 2010, PIEZO ion channels have dominated the field of mechanobiology. These have been proposed as the long-sought-after mechanosensitive excitatory channels involved in touch and proprioception in mammals. However, more and more pieces of evidence point to the importance of PIEZO channels in cardiovascular activities and disease development. PIEZO channel-related cardiac functions include transducing hemodynamic forces in endothelial and vascular cells, red blood cell homeostasis, platelet aggregation, and arterial blood pressure regulation, among others. PIEZO channels contribute to pathological conditions including cardiac hypertrophy and pulmonary hypertension and congenital syndromes such as generalized lymphatic dysplasia and xerocytosis. In this review, we highlight recent advances in understanding the role of PIEZO channels in cardiovascular functions and diseases. Achievements in this quickly expanding field should open a new road for efficient control of PIEZO-related diseases in cardiovascular functions.

Abstract
Blood pressure management is a critical aspect of patient care, particularly in surgical and critical care settings. Closed-loop systems, which utilize real-time data and feedback to adjust treatment interventions, have gained attention for their potential to enhance blood pressure control. This review explores the application of closed-loop systems in blood pressure management. We discuss various closed-loop approaches, including their mechanisms, benefits, and limitations. By harnessing real-time patient data and feedback, closed-loop systems can tailor interventions dynamically, thus enhancing blood pressure regulation. Additionally, we examine the integration of advanced monitoring technologies and artificial intelligence algorithms in closed-loop systems. The review highlights recent studies and their findings, emphasizing the evolving landscape of closed-loop blood pressure management across different clinical scenarios. From the perioperative period to critical care settings, closed-loop systems hold the potential to optimize patient outcomes by precisely adjusting vasopressor administration in response to continuous blood pressure fluctuations. By providing insights into the current state of closed-loop systems for blood pressure control, this review offers a comprehensive overview of their potential contributions to improved patient outcomes and future directions for research and implementation.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cardiac autonomic dysfunction is one of the main pillars of cardiovascular pathophysiology. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview of the current state of the art on the pathological remodeling that occurs within the autonomic nervous system with cardiac injury and available neuromodulatory therapies for autonomic dysfunction in heart failure. METHODS Data from peer-reviewed publications on autonomic function in health and after cardiac injury are reviewed. The role of and evidence behind various neuromodulatory therapies both in preclinical investigation and in-use in clinical practice are summarized. RESULTS A harmonic interplay between the heart and the autonomic nervous system exists at multiple levels of the neuraxis. This interplay becomes disrupted in the setting of cardiovascular disease, resulting in pathological changes at multiple levels, from subcellular cardiac signaling of neurotransmitters to extra-cardiac, extra-thoracic remodeling. The subsequent detrimental cycle of sympathovagal imbalance, characterized by sympathoexcitation and parasympathetic withdrawal, predisposes to ventricular arrhythmias, progression of heart failure, and cardiac mortality. Knowledge on the etiology and pathophysiology of this condition has increased exponentially over the past few decades, resulting in a number of different neuromodulatory approaches. However, significant knowledge gaps in both sympathetic and parasympathetic interactions and causal factors that mediate progressive sympathoexcitation and parasympathetic dysfunction remain. CONCLUSIONS Although our understanding of autonomic imbalance in cardiovascular diseases has significantly increased, specific, pivotal mediators of this imbalance and the recognition and implementation of available autonomic parameters and neuromodulatory therapies are still lagging.

Abstract
Cellular mechanotransduction, a critical regulator of numerous biological processes, is the conversion from mechanical signals to biochemical signals regarding cell activities and metabolism. Typical mechanical cues in organisms include hydrostatic pressure, fluid shear stress, tensile force, extracellular matrix stiffness or tissue elasticity, and extracellular fluid viscosity. Mechanotransduction has been expected to trigger multiple biological processes, such as embryonic development, tissue repair and regeneration. However, prolonged excessive mechanical stimulation can result in pathological processes, such as multi-organ fibrosis, tumorigenesis, and cancer immunotherapy resistance. Although the associations between mechanical cues and normal tissue homeostasis or diseases have been identified, the regulatory mechanisms among different mechanical cues are not yet comprehensively illustrated, and no effective therapies are currently available targeting mechanical cue-related signaling. This review systematically summarizes the characteristics and regulatory mechanisms of typical mechanical cues in normal conditions and diseases with the updated evidence. The key effectors responding to mechanical stimulations are listed, such as Piezo channels, integrins, Yes-associated protein (YAP) /transcriptional coactivator with PDZ-binding motif (TAZ), and transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4). We also reviewed the key signaling pathways, therapeutic targets and cutting-edge clinical applications of diseases related to mechanical cues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Health agencies, including the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization, recommend that heat-vulnerable older adults without home air-conditioning should visit cooling centers or other air-conditioned locations (e.g., a shopping mall) during heat waves. However, experimental evidence supporting the effectiveness of brief air-conditioning is lacking. OBJECTIVE We evaluated whether brief exposure to an air-conditioned environment, as experienced in a cooling center, was effective for limiting physiological strain in older adults during a daylong laboratory-based heat wave simulation. METHODS Forty adults 64-79 years of age underwent a 9-h simulated heat wave (heat index: 37°C) with (cooling group, n=20) or without (control group, n=20) a cooling intervention consisting of 2-h rest in an air-conditioned room (∼23°C, hours 5-6). Core and skin temperatures, whole-body heat exchange and storage, cardiovascular function, and circulating markers of acute inflammation were assessed. RESULTS Core temperature was 0.8°C (95% CI: 0.6, 0.9) lower in the cooling group compared with the control group at the end of the cooling intervention (p<0.001; hour 6), and it remained 0.3°C (95% CI: 0.2, 0.4) lower an hour after returning to the heat (p<0.001; hour 7). Despite this, core temperatures in each group were statistically equivalent at hours 8 and 9, within ±0.3°C (p≤0.005). Cooling also acutely reduced demand on the heart and improved indices of cardiovascular autonomic function (p≤0.021); however, these outcomes were not different between groups at the end of exposure (p≥0.58). DISCUSSION Brief air-conditioning exposure during a simulated heat wave caused a robust but transient reduction in core temperature and cardiovascular strain. These findings provide important experimental support for national and international guidance that cooling centers are effective for limiting physiological strain during heat waves. However, they also show that the physiological impacts of brief cooling are temporary, a factor that has not been considered in guidance issued by health agencies. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP11651.

Abstract
The increasing prevalence of obesity and type 2 diabetes has led to a greater interest in adipose tissue physiology. Adipose tissue is now understood as an organ with endocrine and thermogenic capacities in addition to its role in fat storage. It plays a critical role in systemic metabolism and energy regulation, and its activity is tightly regulated by the nervous system. Fat is now recognized to receive sympathetic innervation, which transmits information from the brain, as well as sensory innervation, which sends information into the brain. The role of sympathetic innervation in adipose tissue has been extensively studied. However, the extent and the functional significance of sensory innervation have long been unclear. Recent studies have started to reveal that sensory neurons robustly innervate adipose tissue and play an important role in regulating fat activity. This brief review will discuss both historical evidence and recent advances, as well as important remaining questions about the sensory innervation of adipose tissue.

Abstract
AIMS Mean arterial pressure (MAP) is widely used for evaluating organ perfusion, but its impact on clinical outcomes in patients with heart failure (HF) remains poorly understood. The aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between MAP and all-cause mortality and readmission in patients with HF. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively analysed data from PhysioNet, involving 2005 patients with HF admitted to Zigong Fourth People's Hospital between 2016 and 2019. The primary outcomes were composite outcomes of all-cause mortality and readmission at 3 and 6 months. The secondary outcomes were readmission at 3 and 6 months. Multivariate-adjusted Cox regression models, restricted cubic spline curves (RCS), and propensity score matching (PSM) were used to explore the relationship between MAP and clinical outcomes. Among 2005 patients with HF [≥70 years, 1460 (72.8%); male, 843 (42.0%)], the incidence of primary outcome at 3 months was 33.4% (223/668), 24.4% (163/668), and 22.7% (152/669), and at 6 months, it was 47.5% (317/668), 38.5% (257/668), and 38.0% (254/669) across MAP tertiles [from Tertile 1 (T1) to Tertile 3 (T3)], respectively. The RCS showed an 'L-shaped' relationship between MAP and primary or secondary endpoints. Multivariate-adjusted Cox models showed that a higher MAP was significantly associated with a lower risk of composite endpoints at 3 months [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 0.75, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.61-0.92, P = 0.006, Tertile 2 (T2); aHR 0.69, 95% CI 0.56-0.86, P = 0.001, T3] and 6 months (aHR 0.79, 95% CI 0.67-0.93, P = 0.005, T2; aHR 0.77, 95% CI 0.64-0.91, P = 0.003, T3) compared with T1. After 1:1 PSM, the effect of maintaining a relatively higher MAP was slightly attenuated. Threshold analyses indicated that per 10 mmHg increase in MAP, there was a 21% and 14% decrease in composite endpoints at 3 and 6 months, respectively (aHR 0.79, 95% CI 0.69-0.91, P = 0.001), and 6 months (aHR 0.86, 95% CI 0.77-0.97, P = 0.013) in patients with MAP ≤ 93 mmHg. The associations were consistent in readmission (secondary outcomes), various subgroups, and sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSIONS A higher MAP was associated with a lower risk of a composite of all-cause mortality and readmission. Maintaining a relatively higher MAP could potentially improve the clinical prognosis for patients with HF.

[PMID: 37028794 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopsycho.2023.108553] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2022] [Revised: 04/03/2023] [Accepted: 04/05/2023] [Indexed: 04/09/2023]
Abstract
Psychological stress has been shown to influence the development and progression of disordered eating. Psychophysiological studies have reported that individuals with disordered eating behavior exhibit atypical cardiovascular reactions to acute psychological stress. However, prior studies have been limited by small sample sizes and have examined cardiovascular responses to a singular stress exposure. The current study examined the association between disordered eating and cardiovascular reactivity, as well as cardiovascular habituation to acute psychological stress. A mixed-sex sample (N = 450) of undergraduate students were categorized into a disordered eating or non-disordered eating group using a validated disordered eating screening questionnaire and attended a laboratory stress testing session. The testing session included two identical stress-testing protocols, each consisting of a 10-minute baseline and 4-minute stress task. Cardiovascular parameters including heart rate, systolic/diastolic blood pressure and mean arterial pressure (MAP) were recorded throughout the testing session. Post task measures of self-reported stress, as well as positive affect and negative affect (NA) reactivity were used to assess psychological reactions to stress. The disordered eating group exhibited greater increases in NA reactivity in response to both stress exposures. Additionally, in comparison to the control group, those in the disordered eating group exhibited blunted MAP reactivity to the initial stress exposure and less MAP habituation across both stress exposures. These findings indicate that disordered eating is characterized by dysregulated hemodynamic stress responsivity, which may constitute a physiological mechanism leading to poor physical health outcomes.

Abstract
AIM Recruitment of renal functional reserve (RFR) with amino acid loading increases renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate. However, its effects on renal cortical and medullary oxygenation have not been determined. Accordingly, we tested the effects of recruitment of RFR on renal cortical and medullary oxygenation in non-anesthetized sheep. METHODS Under general anesthesia, we instrumented 10 sheep to enable subsequent continuous measurements of systemic and renal hemodynamics, renal oxygen delivery and consumption, and cortical and medullary tissue oxygen tension (PO2 ). We then measured the effects of recruitment of RFR with an intravenous infusion of 500 ml of a clinically used amino acid solution (10% Synthamin® 17) in the non-anesthetized state. RESULTS Compared with baseline, Synthamin® 17 infusion significantly increased renal oxygen delivery mean ± SD maximum increase: (from 0.79 ± 0.17 to 1.06 ± 0.16 ml/kg/min, p < 0.001), renal oxygen consumption (from 0.08 ± 0.01 to 0.15 ± 0.02 ml/kg/min, p < 0.001), and glomerular filtration rate (+45.2 ± 2.7%, p < 0.001). Renal cortical tissue PO2 increased by a maximum of 26.4 ± 1.1% (p = 0.001) and medullary tissue PO2 increased by a maximum of 23.9 ± 2.8% (p = 0. 001). CONCLUSIONS In non-anesthetized healthy sheep, recruitment of RFR improved renal cortical and medullary oxygenation. These observations might have implications for the use of recruitment of RFR for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes.

Cardiac Vagal Regulation Is Impeded in Children With Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome. Am J Gastroenterol 2023:00000434-990000000-00668. [PMID: 36716443 DOI: 10.14309/ajg.0000000000002207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 01/19/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The pathophysiology underlying cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) remains undefined. Scant data and distinct clinical features point to altered autonomic nervous system function. Autonomic signaling can be noninvasively assessed through cardiac indices of parasympathetic vagal regulation, which is reduced in children with disorders of gut-brain interaction. We aimed to examine dynamic cardiac vagal regulation in children with CVS compared with that in healthy controls (HC). METHODS A total of 31 children with CVS evaluated in a tertiary care CVS center and 66 HC (ages 8-18 years) underwent cardiac autonomic function assessment. Electrocardiogram recordings were conducted during 3-minute sit/stand/sit posture challenges. The electrocardiogram-derived variables heart period, respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA), and vagal efficiency (VE) were analyzed using linear regression and mixed-effects modeling. RESULTS After exclusion of medication confounders, 23 patients with CVS were included in analyses. Both groups were comparable in age, gender, and body mass index. Compared with HC, children with CVS had shorter heart period (standardized mean difference range: 1.15-1.22, all P values < 0.05) and lower RSA (SMD range: 0.66-0.88, all P values < 0.05). Patients with CVS had significantly lower VE during the entire course of posture shifts, compared with HC ( B = -19.87, SE = 6.95, t = -2.86, P = 0.005, SMD = 0.76). DISCUSSION Children with CVS have suboptimal parasympathetic autonomic regulation compared with HC, indexed by reduced RSA and VE, even during their interepisodic well phase. Abnormal vagal modulation may underlie CVS pathophysiology, comorbidities, and triggers. Assessing VE during posture stressors could inform therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
This case demonstrates how orthostatic hypotension in the absence of typical symptoms of light-headedness/dizziness when changing posture, can contribute to the burden of falls in Parkinson's disease. At least one-third of people with severe orthostatic hypotension do not report typical symptoms, and this figure appears to be higher in patients with Parkinson's disease. This is important clinically as it can increase the difficulty in ascribing falls to orthostatic hypotension, especially given the other competing reasons in Parkinson's disease and orthostatic hypotension symptoms can act as a prompt for the patient to act to prevent falls-related injuries. There is a clinical requirement, therefore, to screen for and manage orthostatic hypotension in patients with Parkinson's disease to prevent falls, even in those who do not report typical symptoms.

Abstract
Sodium (Na+) is crucial for numerous homeostatic processes in the body and, consequentially, its levels are tightly regulated by multiple organ systems. Sodium is acquired from the diet, commonly in the form of NaCl (table salt), and substances that contain sodium taste salty and are innately palatable at concentrations that are advantageous to physiological homeostasis. The importance of sodium homeostasis is reflected by sodium appetite, an "all-hands-on-deck" response involving the brain, multiple peripheral organ systems, and endocrine factors, to increase sodium intake and replenish sodium levels in times of depletion. Visceral sensory information and endocrine signals are integrated by the brain to regulate sodium intake. Dysregulation of the systems involved can lead to sodium overconsumption, which numerous studies have considered causal for the development of diseases, such as hypertension. The purpose here is to consider the inverse-how disease impacts sodium intake, with a focus on stress-related and cardiometabolic diseases. Our proposition is that such diseases contribute to an increase in sodium intake, potentially eliciting a vicious cycle toward disease exacerbation. First, we describe the mechanism(s) that regulate each of these processes independently. Then, we highlight the points of overlap and integration of these processes. We propose that the analogous neural circuitry involved in regulating sodium intake and blood pressure, at least in part, underlies the reciprocal relationship between neural control of these functions. Finally, we conclude with a discussion on how stress-related and cardiometabolic diseases influence these circuitries to alter the consumption of sodium.

The Old and the New: Cardiovascular and Respiratory Alterations Induced by Acute JWH-018 Administration Compared to Δ 9-THC-A Preclinical Study in Mice. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:ijms24021631. [PMID: 36675144 PMCID: PMC9865969 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24021631] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Revised: 01/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/10/2023] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Several new psychoactive substances (NPS) are responsible for intoxication involving the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Among NPS, synthetic cannabinoids (SCs) provoked side effects in humans characterized by tachycardia, arrhythmias, hypertension, breathing difficulty, apnoea, myocardial infarction, and cardiac arrest. Therefore, the present study investigated the cardio-respiratory (MouseOx Plus; EMKA electrocardiogram (ECG) and plethysmography TUNNEL systems) and vascular (BP-2000 systems) effects induced by 1-naphthalenyl (1-pentyl-1H-indol-3-yl)-methanone (JWH-018; 0.3-3-6 mg/kg) and Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol (Δ9-THC; 0.3-3-6 mg/kg), administered in awake CD-1 male mice. The results showed that higher doses of JWH-018 (3-6 mg/kg) induced deep and long-lasting bradycardia, alternated with bradyarrhythmia, spaced out by sudden episodes of tachyarrhythmias (6 mg/kg), and characterized by ECG electrical parameters changes, sustained bradypnea, and systolic and transient diastolic hypertension. Otherwise, Δ9-THC provoked delayed bradycardia (minor intensity tachyarrhythmias episodes) and bradypnea, also causing a transient and mild hypertensive effect at the tested dose range. These effects were prevented by both treatment with selective CB1 (AM 251, 6 mg/kg) and CB2 (AM 630, 6 mg/kg) receptor antagonists and with the mixture of the antagonists AM 251 and AM 630, even if in a different manner. Cardio-respiratory and vascular symptoms could be induced by peripheral and central CB1 and CB2 receptors stimulation, which could lead to both sympathetic and parasympathetic systems activation. These findings may represent a starting point for necessary future studies aimed at exploring the proper antidotal therapy to be used in SCs-intoxicated patient management.

Abstract
Sleep regularity is an essential part of the multidimensional sleep health framework. The phenomenon of irregular sleep patterns is widespread in contemporary lifestyles. This review synthesizes clinical evidence to summarize the measures of sleep regularity and discusses the role of different sleep regularity indicators in developing cardiometabolic diseases (coronary heart disease, hypertension, obesity, and diabetes). Existing literature has proposed several measurements to assess sleep regularity, mainly including the standard deviation (SD) of sleep duration and timing, sleep regularity index (SRI), interdaily stability (IS), and social jetlag (SJL). Evidence on associations between sleep variability and cardiometabolic diseases varies depending on the measure used to characterize variability in sleep. Current studies have identified a robust association between SRI and cardiometabolic diseases. In comparison, the association between other metrics of sleep regularity and cardiometabolic diseases was mixed. Meanwhile, the associations of sleep variability with cardiometabolic diseases differ across the population. SD of sleep characteristics or IS may be more consistently associated with HbA1c in patients with diabetes compared with the general population. The association between SJL and hypertension for patients with diabetes was more accordant than in the general population. Interestingly, the age-stratified association between SJL and metabolic factors was observed in the present studies. Furthermore, the relevant literature was reviewed to generalize the potential mechanisms through which irregular sleep increases cardiometabolic risk, including circadian dysfunction, inflammation, autonomic dysfunction, hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis disorder, and gut dysbiosis. Health-related practitioners should give more attention to the role of sleep regularity on human cardiometabolic in the future.

Abstract
Objective.Our previous study has shown that low-intensity focused ultrasound stimulation (FUS) of the vagus nerve could modulate blood pressure (BP), but its underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We hypothesized that low-intensity FUS of the vagus nerve would regulate autonomic function and thus BP.Approach.17 anesthetized spontaneously hypertensive rats were treated with low-intensity FUS of the left vagus nerve for 15 min each trial. Continuous BP, heart rate, respiration rate (RR), and core body temperature were simultaneously recorded to evaluate the effects on BP and other physiological parameters. Heart rate variability (HRV), systolic BP variability, and baroreflex sensitivity were computed to evaluate the autonomic modulation function. A Control-sham group without stimulation and another Control-FUS group with non-target stimulation were also examined to exclude the influence of potential confounding factors on autonomic modulation.Main results.A prolonged significant decrease in BP, pulse pressure, RR, the normalized low-frequency power of HRV, and the low-to-high frequency power ratio of HRV were found after the low-intensity FUS of the left vagus nerve in comparison with the baseline and those of the control groups, demonstrating that activities of the sympathetic nervous system were inhibited. The prolonged significant increase of the normalized high-frequency power of HRV suggested the activation of parasympathetic activity.Significance.Low-intensity FUS of the left vagus nerve effectively improved the autonomic function by activating parasympathetic efferent and inhibiting sympathetic efferent, which contributes to BP reduction. The findings shed light on the hypotensive mechanism underlying FUS.

Abstract
Background The objective of this pilot study was to identify frequency-dependent effects of respiratory-gated auricular vagus afferent nerve stimulation (RAVANS) on the regulation of blood pressure and heart rate variability in hypertensive subjects and examine potential differential effects by sex/gender or race. Methods Twenty hypertensive subjects (54.55 ± 6.23 years of age; 12 females and 8 males) were included in a within-person experimental design and underwent five stimulation sessions where they received RAVANS at different frequencies (i.e., 2 Hz, 10 Hz, 25 Hz, 100 Hz, or sham stimulation) in a randomized order. EKG and continuous blood pressure signals were collected during a 10-min baseline, 30-min stimulation, and 10-min post-stimulation periods. Generalized estimating equations (GEE) adjusted for baseline measures were used to evaluate frequency-dependent effects of RAVANS on heart rate, high frequency power, and blood pressure measures, including analyses stratified by sex and race. Results Administration of RAVANS at 100 Hz had significant overall effects on the reduction of heart rate (β = -2.03, p = 0.002). It was also associated with a significant reduction of diastolic (β = -1.90, p = 0.01) and mean arterial blood pressure (β = -2.23, p = 0.002) in Black hypertensive participants and heart rate in female subjects (β = -2.83, p = 0.01) during the post-stimulation period when compared to sham. Conclusion Respiratory-gated auricular vagus afferent nerve stimulation exhibits frequency-dependent rapid effects on the modulation of heart rate and blood pressure in hypertensive patients that may further differ by race and sex. Our findings highlight the need for the development of optimized stimulation protocols that achieve the greatest effects on the modulation of physiological and clinical outcomes in this population.

Claffey P, Pérez-Denia L, Lavan A, Kenny RA, Finucane C, Briggs R. Asymptomatic orthostatic hypotension and risk of falls in community-dwelling older people. Age Ageing 2022; 51:6936398. [PMID: 36571778 DOI: 10.1093/ageing/afac295] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Many older people with orthostatic hypotension (OH) may not report typical symptoms of dizziness, light-headedness or unsteadiness. However, the relationships between OH and falls in the absence of typical symptoms are not yet established. METHODS Continuous orthostatic blood pressure (BP) was measured during active stand using a Finometer at Wave 1 of The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing in participants aged ≥ 70 years.OH, with and without dizziness, was defined as a sustained drop in systolic BP ≥ 20 and/or diastolic BP ≥ 10 mm Hg at 30, 60 and 90 seconds post-standing.The association between symptoms of dizziness and orthostatic BP was assessed with multi-level mixed-effects linear regression; logistic regression models assessed the longitudinal relationship between OH and falls at 6-year follow-up (Waves 2-5). RESULTS Almost 11% (n = 934, mean age 75 years, 51% female) had OH, two-thirds of whom were asymptomatic.Dizziness was not associated with systolic BP drop at 30 (β = 1.54 (-1.27, 4.36); p = 0.256), 60 (β = 2.64 (-0.19, 5.47); p = 0.476) or 90 seconds (β = 2.02 (-0.91, 4.95); p = 0.176) after standing in adjusted models.Asymptomatic OH was independently associated with unexplained falls (odds ratio 2.01 [1.11, 3.65]; p = 0.022) but not explained falls (OR 0.93 [0.53, 1.62]; p = 0.797) during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Two-thirds of older people with OH did not report typical symptoms of light-headedness. Dizziness or unsteadiness after standing did not correlate with the degree of orthostatic BP drop or recovery. Participants with asymptomatic OH had a significantly higher risk of unexplained falls during follow-up, and this has important clinical implications for the assessment of older people with falls.

The autism-associated Meis2 gene is necessary for cardiac baroreflex regulation in mice. Sci Rep 2022; 12:20150. [PMID: 36418415 PMCID: PMC9684552 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-24616-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 11/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Recent understanding of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) showed that peripheral primary mechanosensitive neurons involved in touch sensation and central neurons affected in ASD share transcriptional regulators. Mutant mice for ASD-associated transcription factors exhibit impaired primary tactile perception and restoring those genes specifically in primary sensory neurons rescues some of the anxiety-like behavior and social interaction defects. Interestingly, peripheral mechanosensitive sensory neurons also project to internal organs including the cardiovascular system, and an imbalance of the cardio-vascular sympathovagal regulation is evidenced in ASD and intellectual disability. ASD patients have decreased vagal tone, suggesting dysfunction of sensory neurons involved in cardio-vascular sensing. In light of our previous finding that the ASD-associated Meis2 gene is necessary for normal touch neuron development and function, we investigated here if its inactivation in mouse peripheral sensory neurons also affects cardio-vascular sympathovagal regulation and baroreflex. Combining echocardiography, pharmacological challenge, blood pressure monitoring, and heart rate variability analysis, we found that Meis2 mutant mice exhibited a blunted vagal response independently of any apparent cardiac malformation. These results suggest that defects in primary sensory neurons with mechanosensitive identity could participate in the imbalanced cardio-vascular sympathovagal tone found in ASD patients, reinforcing current hypotheses on the role of primary sensory neurons in the etiology of ASD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over 5 million older Americans are victims of financial exploitation, schemes, and/or scams per year. Such victimization is associated with increased hospitalizations, admittance to skilled nursing facilities, and lower 5-year all-cause mortality survival rates. Despite this, associations with medical comorbidities like elevated blood pressure (BP) have not been examined. METHODS We investigated the association of self-reported fraud victimization (presence/absence) with objectively measured BP metrics leveraging cross-sectional and longitudinal data from over 1200 non-demented adults (75% female; age ~81 years) from the Rush Memory and Aging Project. We first examined cross-sectional associations between baseline fraud victimization and BP, then used longitudinal data to test the hypothesis that fraud victimization is associated with increases in BP after incident fraud. During up to 11 years of annual observation, participants were queried for fraud victimization and underwent serial BP measurements to calculate per visit averages of systolic and diastolic BP, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and pulse pressure. RESULTS Cross-sectional analyses established that fraud victimization at baseline was associated with higher BP values. Next, using longitudinal changepoint analyses, we showed that fraud victimization was associated with elevations in BP among men but not women. Specifically, men who reported incident fraud exhibited increases in all BP metrics post-fraud. CONCLUSION Results suggest an important link between fraud victimization and BP, particularly among men. Older men showed significant elevations in BP after incident fraud that, compounded over time, may portend other adverse health outcomes.

Increased very low frequency pulsations and decreased cardiorespiratory pulsations suggest altered brain clearance in narcolepsy. COMMUNICATIONS MEDICINE 2022; 2:122. [PMID: 36193214 PMCID: PMC9525269 DOI: 10.1038/s43856-022-00187-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/20/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Narcolepsy is a chronic neurological disease characterized by daytime sleep attacks, cataplexy, and fragmented sleep. The disease is hypothesized to arise from destruction or dysfunction of hypothalamic hypocretin-producing cells that innervate wake-promoting systems including the ascending arousal network (AAN), which regulates arousal via release of neurotransmitters like noradrenalin. Brain pulsations are thought to drive intracranial cerebrospinal fluid flow linked to brain metabolite transfer that sustains homeostasis. This flow increases in sleep and is suppressed by noradrenalin in the awake state. Here we tested the hypothesis that narcolepsy is associated with altered brain pulsations, and if these pulsations can differentiate narcolepsy type 1 from healthy controls. Methods In this case-control study, 23 patients with narcolepsy type 1 (NT1) were imaged with ultrafast fMRI (MREG) along with 23 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HC). The physiological brain pulsations were quantified as the frequency-wise signal variance. Clinical relevance of the pulsations was investigated with correlation and receiving operating characteristic analysis. Results We find that variance and fractional variance in the very low frequency (MREGvlf) band are greater in NT1 compared to HC, while cardiac (MREGcard) and respiratory band variances are lower. Interestingly, these pulsations differences are prominent in the AAN region. We further find that fractional variance in MREGvlf shows promise as an effective bi-classification metric (AUC = 81.4%/78.5%), and that disease severity measured with narcolepsy severity score correlates with MREGcard variance (R = −0.48, p = 0.0249). Conclusions We suggest that our novel results reflect impaired CSF dynamics that may be linked to altered glymphatic circulation in narcolepsy type 1. The flow of fluid surrounding and inside the human brain is thought to be caused by the movement of brain vessels, breathing and heart rate. These so called brain pulsations are linked to clearing waste from the brain. This process is increased during sleep and suppressed while we are awake. Narcolepsy is a neurological disease where the brain areas regulating being awake and asleep are affected. The diagnosis requires time-consuming hospital tests and is often delayed which has a prolonged negative impact on the patients. Here, we use brain imaging to investigate whether brain pulsations are altered in patients with narcolepsy, and if they can be utilized to differentiate patients with narcolepsy from healthy individuals. We find that narcolepsy affects all brain pulsations, and these findings show promise as an additional diagnostic tool that could help detect the disease earlier. Järvelä et al. investigate if narcolepsy is associated with altered brain pulsations using ultrafast fMRI. They find differences in the brain pulsations between narcolepsy type 1 patients and healthy controls that may link to altered brain clearance in narcolepsy, have diagnostic potential and correlate with the severity of narcolepsy.

Abstract
Maintaining homeostasis while navigating one's environment involves accurately assessing and interacting with external stimuli while remaining consciously in tune with internal signals such as hunger and thirst. Both atypical social interactions and unhealthy eating patterns emerge as a result of dysregulation in factors that mediate the prioritization and attention to salient stimuli. Oxytocin is an evolutionarily conserved peptide that regulates attention to exteroceptive and interoceptive stimuli in a social environment by functioning in the brain as a modulatory neuropeptide to control social behavior, but also in the periphery as a hormone acting at oxytocin receptors (Oxtr) expressed in the heart, gut, and peripheral ganglia. Specialized sensory afferent nerve endings of Oxtr-expressing nodose ganglia cells transmit cardiometabolic signals via the Vagus nerve to integrative regions in the brain that also express Oxtr(s). These brain regions are influenced by vagal sensory pathways and coordinate with external events such as those demanding attention to social stimuli, thus the sensations related to cardiometabolic function and social interactions are influenced by oxytocin signaling. This review investigates the literature supporting the idea that oxytocin mediates the interoception of cardiovascular and gastrointestinal systems, and that the modulation of this awareness likewise influences social cognition. These concepts are then considered in relation to Autism Spectrum Disorder, exploring how atypical social behavior is comorbid with cardiometabolic dysfunction.

Endometrial thickness is an independent risk factor of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy: a retrospective study of 13,458 patients in frozen-thawed embryo transfers. Reprod Biol Endocrinol 2022; 20:93. [PMID: 35765069 PMCID: PMC9238038 DOI: 10.1186/s12958-022-00965-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/03/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy (HDP) are an important cause of maternal and fetal mortality, and its potential risk factors are still being explored. Endometrial thickness (EMT), as one of the important monitoring indicators of endometrial receptivity, has been confirmed to be related to the incidence of HDP in fresh embryo transfer. Our study was designed to investigate whether endometrial thickness is associated with the risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in frozen-thawed embryo transfer (FET). METHODS This respective cohort study enrolled 13,458 women who received vitrified embryo transfer and had a singleton delivery in the Reproductive Hospital affiliated to Shandong University from January 2015 to December 2019. We set strict screening criteria and obtained the information from the hospital electronic medical system. Statistical methods including logistic regression analysis, receiver operating characteristic curve and restricted cubic spline were used to evaluate the relationship between endometrial thickness and the incidence of pregnancy-induced hypertension. RESULTS The incidences of HDP in a thin endometrial thickness group (< 0.8 cm) and a thick endometrial thickness group (> 1.2 cm) were significantly greater than in a reference group (0.8 cm-1.2 cm) (7.98 and 5.24% vs 4.59%, P < 0.001). A nonlinear relationship between endometrial thickness and risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy was examined by restricted cubic spline (P < 0.001). The thin endometrial thickness and thick endometrial thickness groups were significantly associated with the risk of HDP after adjusting for confounding variables by stepwise logistic regression analysis. Subsequently, subgroup logistic regression analysis based on endometrial preparation regimens showed that thin endometria were still significantly associated with a higher morbidity rate in the artificial cycle group, while in the natural cycle group, thick endometria were closely associated with increased morbidity. CONCLUSION Our study manifested that both the thin and thick endometria were associated with an increased risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy in frozen embryo transfer cycles. Reproductive clinicians should focus on adjusting endometrial thickness in different preparation regimens; and obstetricians should be mindful of the risk of hypertension during pregnancy, when women with thin (< 0.8 cm) or excessively thicker (> 1.2 cm) endometrial thickness achieve pregnancy through frozen-thawed embryo transfer.

The relationship between age shock index, and severity of stroke and in-hospital mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2022; 31:106569. [PMID: 35777082 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2022.106569] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2021] [Revised: 04/27/2022] [Accepted: 05/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Shock index (SI) has been reported to help us predict adverse prognosis in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, the prognostic value of age SI and age modified shock index (MSI) in acute ischemic stroke is unknown. In our study, we aimed to examine the association between the severity of the stroke and in-hospital mortality, age SI and age MSI in patients with AIS. METHODS A total of 256 patients were enrolled in this study. The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) was used to determine the severity of stroke. Patients were divided into two groups according to the NIHSS score calculated during hospitalization (NIHSS>14: severe disability group, NIHSS<15: moderate and mild disability group). Shock indexes were calculated using the blood pressure and heart rate values measured as a result of the cardiovascular examinations of the patients. We looked for correlations between increased NIHSS and in-hospital mortality with age shock index and age modified shock index. RESULTS Age SI and age MSI values were higher in the severe disability group than those without severe disability, and the results were statistically significant (p<0.001, p<0.001, respectively). Also, a positive correlation was determined between the height of NIHSS and the age SI and the age MSI (p=0.002, r=0.197, p=0.001, r=0.215, respectively). Thirty-two (12.5%) of 256 patients included in the study died during hospitalization. Patients who died were older (77.1±11.0 vs. 67.5±13.5, respectively; p<0.001). According to Point-Biserial correlation analysis, there was a positive correlation between mortality and age SI, and age MSI (p<0.001, r=0.258 ve p<0.001, r=0.274, respectively). CONCLUSIONS As a result of our study, the relationship between stroke severity and increasing age SI and age MSI was significant and there was a positive correlation. In addition, there was a significant and positive relationship between in-hospital mortality and age SI and age MSI.

Deep Learning Paradigm for Cardiovascular Disease/Stroke Risk Stratification in Parkinson’s Disease Affected by COVID-19: A Narrative Review. Diagnostics (Basel) 2022; 12:diagnostics12071543. [PMID: 35885449 PMCID: PMC9324237 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics12071543] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/14/2022] [Revised: 06/14/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and Motivation: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most serious, non-curable, and expensive to treat. Recently, machine learning (ML) has shown to be able to predict cardiovascular/stroke risk in PD patients. The presence of COVID-19 causes the ML systems to become severely non-linear and poses challenges in cardiovascular/stroke risk stratification. Further, due to comorbidity, sample size constraints, and poor scientific and clinical validation techniques, there have been no well-explained ML paradigms. Deep neural networks are powerful learning machines that generalize non-linear conditions. This study presents a novel investigation of deep learning (DL) solutions for CVD/stroke risk prediction in PD patients affected by the COVID-19 framework. Method: The PRISMA search strategy was used for the selection of 292 studies closely associated with the effect of PD on CVD risk in the COVID-19 framework. We study the hypothesis that PD in the presence of COVID-19 can cause more harm to the heart and brain than in non-COVID-19 conditions. COVID-19 lung damage severity can be used as a covariate during DL training model designs. We, therefore, propose a DL model for the estimation of, (i) COVID-19 lesions in computed tomography (CT) scans and (ii) combining the covariates of PD, COVID-19 lesions, office and laboratory arterial atherosclerotic image-based biomarkers, and medicine usage for the PD patients for the design of DL point-based models for CVD/stroke risk stratification. Results: We validated the feasibility of CVD/stroke risk stratification in PD patients in the presence of a COVID-19 environment and this was also verified. DL architectures like long short-term memory (LSTM), and recurrent neural network (RNN) were studied for CVD/stroke risk stratification showing powerful designs. Lastly, we examined the artificial intelligence bias and provided recommendations for early detection of CVD/stroke in PD patients in the presence of COVID-19. Conclusion: The DL is a very powerful tool for predicting CVD/stroke risk in PD patients affected by COVID-19.

Abstract
The p53 pathway has been the focus of many researchers in the last few decades owing to its pivotal role as a frontline cancer suppressant protein. It plays a vital role in maintaining cell cycle checkpoints and cell apoptosis in response to a broken DNA strand. This is why it is found in the mutated form in more than 50% of malignant tumors. To overcome this, various drugs have been proposed to revive the p53 pathway in cancer patients. Small-molecule-based drugs, such as Nutlin 3a, which are capable of performing this stimulation, are at the fore of advanced clinical trials. However, the calculation of their dosage is a challenge. In this work, a method to determine the dosage of Nutlin 3a is investigated. A control-systems-based model is developed to study the response of the wild-type p53 protein to this drug. The proposed strategy regulates the p53 protein along with negative and positive feedback loops mediated by the MDM2 and MDM2 mRNA, respectively, along with the reversible repression of MDM2 caused by Nutlin 3a. For a broader perspective, the reported PBK dynamics of Nutlin 3a are also incorporated. It has been reported that p53 responds to stresses in two ways in terms of concentration to this drug: either it is a sustained (constant) or an oscillatory response. The claimed dosage strategy turned out to be appropriate for sustained p53 response. However, for the induction of oscillations, inhibition of MDM2 is not enough; rather, anti-repression of the p53–MDM2 complex is also needed, which opens new horizons for a new drug design paradigm.

Abstract
The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems powerfully regulate internal organs1, but the molecular and functional diversity of their constituent neurons and circuits remains largely unknown. Here we use retrograde neuronal tracing, single-cell RNA sequencing, optogenetics, and physiological experiments to dissect the cardiac parasympathetic control circuit in mice. We show that cardiac-innervating neurons in the brainstem nucleus ambiguus (Amb) are comprised of two molecularly, anatomically, and functionally distinct subtypes. One we call ACV (ambiguus cardiovascular) neurons (~35 neurons per Amb), define the classical cardiac parasympathetic circuit. They selectively innervate a subset of cardiac parasympathetic ganglion neurons and mediate the baroreceptor reflex, slowing heart rate and atrioventricular node conduction in response to increased blood pressure. The other, ACP (ambiguus cardiopulmonary) neurons (~15 neurons per Amb) innervate cardiac ganglion neurons intermingled with and functionally indistinguishable from those innervated by ACV neurons, but surprisingly also innervate most or all lung parasympathetic ganglion neurons; clonal labeling shows individual ACP neurons innervate both organs. ACP neurons mediate the dive reflex, the simultaneous bradycardia and bronchoconstriction that follows water immersion. Thus, parasympathetic control of the heart is organized into two parallel circuits, one that selectively controls cardiac function (ACV circuit) and another that coordinates cardiac and pulmonary function (ACP circuit). This new understanding of cardiac control has implications for treating cardiac and pulmonary diseases and for elucidating the control and coordination circuits of other organs.

JOURNAL OF SPORT AND HEALTH SCIENCE 2022; 11:376-392. [PMID: 33246163 PMCID: PMC9189698 DOI: 10.1016/j.jshs.2020.11.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/23/2020] [Revised: 09/19/2020] [Accepted: 09/28/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is controversial evidence regarding the effect of acute resistance exercise (ARE) on heart rate variability (HRV) parameters, which indicates the activities of the cardiac autonomic nervous system. The aim of this study was to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of the literature on the effect of ARE on HRV parameters and identify its possible moderating factors. METHODS The PubMed-Medline, Web of Science, SPORTDiscus, and Cochrane Library databases were searched. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) declaration was followed, and the methodological quality of the studies was evaluated. The level of significance was set at p ≤ 0.05. Twenty-six studies met the inclusion criteria. Main effect analyses between pre- and post-test interventions demonstrated an increase in normalized units low frequency (p < 0.001; standardized mean difference (SMD) = 0.78; 95% confidence interval (95%CI): 0.46‒1.11) and low frequency/high frequency ratio (p < 0.001; SMD = 0.82; 95%CI: 0.64‒0.99) and a decrease in standard deviation of the normal-to-normal (NN) interval (p < 0.001; SMD = -0.58; 95%CI: -0.85 to -0.30), root mean square of the successive differences (p < 0.001; SMD = -1.01; 95%CI: -1.29 to -0.74), and normalized units high frequency (p < 0.001; SMD: -1.08; 95%CI: -1.43 to -0.73) following ARE in healthy individuals range: 15 ± 1 to 48 ± 2 years; mean ± SD). RESULTS There were differences between the subgroups in the number of sets used in an exercise (p = 0.05) for root mean square of the successive differences, as well as for exercise intensity (p = 0.01) and rest between sets (p = 0.05) for normalized units high frequency. Interestingly, there were differences between the subgroups in training volume for root mean square of the successive differences (p = 0.01), normalized units high frequency (p = 0.003) and normalized units low frequency (p = 0.02). CONCLUSION Overall, there was a withdrawal of cardiac parasympathetic and activation of cardiac sympathetic modulations following ARE, and these changes were greater with higher training volume ∼30 min after ARE in healthy individuals. Furthermore, the number of sets, intensity, and rest between sets affected HRV parameters. However, gender, body mass index, and training status did not influence the changes in HRV parameters as a response to ARE.

Abstract
Cardiovascular instability and a blunted respiratory drive in hypoxic conditions are hallmark features of the genetic sensory and autonomic neuropathy, familial dysautonomia (FD). FD results from a mutation in the gene ELP1, the encoded protein of which is a scaffolding subunit of the six-subunit Elongator complex. In mice, we and others have shown that Elp1 is essential for the normal development of neural crest-derived dorsal root ganglia sensory neurons. Whether Elp1 is also required for development of ectodermal placode-derived visceral sensory receptors, which are required for normal baroreception and chemosensory responses, has not been investigated. Using mouse models for FD, we here show that the entire circuitry underlying baroreception and chemoreception is impaired due to a requirement for Elp1 in the visceral sensory neuron ganglia, as well as for normal peripheral target innervation, and in their central nervous system synaptic partners in the medulla. Thus, Elp1 is required in both placode- and neural crest-derived sensory neurons, and its reduction aborts the normal development of neuronal circuitry essential for autonomic homeostasis and interoception. This article has an associated First Person interview with the first author of the paper. Summary: Our data indicate that Elp1 is required in both placode- and neural crest-derived sensory neurons, and that it exerts comparable effects, including survival, axonal morphology and target innervation in both lineages.

Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a severe, incurable, and costly condition leading to heart failure. The link between PD and cardiovascular disease (CVD) is not available, leading to controversies and poor prognosis. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has already shown promise for CVD/stroke risk stratification. However, due to a lack of sample size, comorbidity, insufficient validation, clinical examination, and a lack of big data configuration, there have been no well-explained bias-free AI investigations to establish the CVD/Stroke risk stratification in the PD framework. The study has two objectives: (i) to establish a solid link between PD and CVD/stroke; and (ii) to use the AI paradigm to examine a well-defined CVD/stroke risk stratification in the PD framework. The PRISMA search strategy selected 223 studies for CVD/stroke risk, of which 54 and 44 studies were related to the link between PD-CVD, and PD-stroke, respectively, 59 studies for joint PD-CVD-Stroke framework, and 66 studies were only for the early PD diagnosis without CVD/stroke link. Sequential biological links were used for establishing the hypothesis. For AI design, PD risk factors as covariates along with CVD/stroke as the gold standard were used for predicting the CVD/stroke risk. The most fundamental cause of CVD/stroke damage due to PD is cardiac autonomic dysfunction due to neurodegeneration that leads to heart failure and its edema, and this validated our hypothesis. Finally, we present the novel AI solutions for CVD/stroke risk prediction in the PD framework. The study also recommends strategies for removing the bias in AI for CVD/stroke risk prediction using the PD framework.

A Novel Organ-Specific Approach to Selectively Target Sensory Afferents Innervating the Aortic Arch. Front Physiol 2022; 13:841078.

Abstract
The brain maintains cardiovascular homeostasis, in part, via the arterial baroreflex which senses changes in blood pressure (BP) at the level of the aortic arch. Sensory afferents innervating the aortic arch employ baroreceptors to convert stretch exerted on the arterial wall into action potentials carried by the vagus nerve to second order neurons residing within the nucleus of the solitary tract (NTS). Although the baroreflex was described more than 80 years ago, the specific molecular, structural, and functional phenotype of the baroreceptors remain uncharacterized. This is due to the lack of tools that provide the genetic and target organ specificity that is required to selectively characterize baroreceptor afferents. Here, we use a novel approach to selectively target baroreceptors. Male mice on a C57BL/6J background were anesthetized with isoflurane, intubated, and artificially ventilated. Following sternotomy, the aortic arch was exposed, and a retrograde adeno-associated virus was applied to the aortic arch to direct the expression of channelrhoropsin-2 (ChR2) and/or tdTomato (tdTom) to sensory afferents presumably functioning as baroreceptors. Consistent with the structural characteristics of arterial baroreceptors, robust tdTom expression was observed in nerve endings surrounding the aortic arch, within the fibers of the aortic depressor and vagus nerves, cell bodies of the nodose ganglia (NDG), and neural projections to the caudal NTS (cNTS). Additionally, the tdTom labeled cell bodies within the NDG also expressed mRNAs coding for the mechanically gated ion channels, PIEZO-1 and PIEZO-2. In vitro electrophysiology revealed that pulses of blue light evoked excitatory post-synaptic currents in a subset of neurons within the cNTS, suggesting a functional connection between the labeled aortic arch sensory afferents and second order neurons. Finally, the in vivo optogenetic stimulation of the cell bodies of the baroreceptor expressing afferents in the NDG produced robust depressor responses. Together, these results establish a novel approach for selectively targeting sensory neurons innervating the aortic arch. This approach may be used to investigate arterial baroreceptors structurally and functionally, and to assess their role in the etiology or reversal of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
The vagus nerve is an indispensable body-brain connection that controls vital aspects of autonomic physiology like breathing, heart rate, blood pressure, and gut motility, reflexes like coughing and swallowing, and survival behaviors like feeding, drinking, and sickness responses. Classical physiological studies and recent molecular/genetic approaches have revealed a tremendous diversity of vagal sensory neuron types that innervate different internal organs, with many cell types remaining poorly understood. Here, we review the state of knowledge related to vagal sensory neurons that innervate the respiratory, cardiovascular, and digestive systems. We focus on cell types and their response properties, physiological/behavioral roles, engaged neural circuits and, when possible, sensory receptors. We are only beginning to understand the signal transduction mechanisms used by vagal sensory neurons and upstream sentinel cells, and future studies are needed to advance the field of interoception to the level of mechanistic understanding previously achieved for our external senses.

Abstract
Adipose tissues communicate with the central nervous system to maintain whole-body energy homeostasis. The mainstream view is that circulating hormones secreted by the fat convey the metabolic state to the brain, which integrates peripheral information and regulates adipocyte function through noradrenergic sympathetic output1. Moreover, somatosensory neurons of the dorsal root ganglia innervate adipose tissue2. However, the lack of genetic tools to selectively target these neurons has limited understanding of their physiological importance. Here we developed viral, genetic and imaging strategies to manipulate sensory nerves in an organ-specific manner in mice. This enabled us to visualize the entire axonal projection of dorsal root ganglia from the soma to subcutaneous adipocytes, establishing the anatomical underpinnings of adipose sensory innervation. Functionally, selective sensory ablation in adipose tissue enhanced the lipogenic and thermogenetic transcriptional programs, resulting in an enlarged fat pad, enrichment of beige adipocytes and elevated body temperature under thermoneutral conditions. The sensory-ablation-induced phenotypes required intact sympathetic function. We postulate that beige-fat-innervating sensory neurons modulate adipocyte function by acting as a brake on the sympathetic system. These results reveal an important role of the innervation by dorsal root ganglia of adipose tissues, and could enable future studies to examine the role of sensory innervation of disparate interoceptive systems.

Abstract
Background and Aims: General anesthesia induces endocrine, immunologic, and metabolic responses. Anesthetic drugs affect endocrine system by changing the level of stress hormones and hemodynamic of the patient . The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of propofol and isoflurane on hemodynamic parameters and stress-induced hormones in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) surgery. Material and Methods: Seventy patients of elective LC were included in this study. Patients were randomly divided into two equal groups of 35 patients; group P received propofol (70–120 μg/kg/min) and group I received isoflurane (mac: 1.28%) as anesthesia maintenance. The following parameters were monitored, checked, and recorded from preanesthesia period to 10 min after PACU entry according to a planned method: hemodynamic parameters (heart rate and mean atrial pressure), level of blood sugar, and serum epinephrine level. Results: Heart rate and mean atrial pressure changes did not show significant differences between the two groups in all stage (P > 0.05), but isoflurane group tolerated lower fluctuating changes. Blood glucose and serum epinephrine level rise in the isoflurane group were significantly higher than the propofol group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Maintenance anesthesia by inhalation gas base on isoflurane has not shown a significant difference with total intravenous anesthesia base on propofol on hemodynamic parameter. However, propofol has a consistent effect on decreasing stress hormone and suggested for LC surgery.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is no longer regarded as a simple wear-and-tear problem of articular cartilage. Instead, OA is a whole joint disorder involving both cartilaginous and non-cartilaginous tissues such as subchondral bone and synovium. Among them, subchondral bone undergoes constant remodeling in response to the changes of mechanical environment. Current understanding of subchondral bone disturbance in OA is limited to its link with an altered local mechanical loading as a result of ligament or meniscus injury. Very recently, hypertension, the most common vascular morbidity, has been emerged as an independent risk factor of OA. It might suggest a plausible role of systemic hemodynamic mechanical stress in subchondral bone remodeling and the pathogenesis of OA. However, their relationship remains not fully understood. Based on our preliminary clinical observation on the association of hemodynamic parameters with subchondral bone mass and microstructure in late-stage knee OA patients, we formulate a vascular etiology hypothesis of OA from a mechanobiology perspective. Noteworthily, hemodynamic stress associated with subchondral bone mineral density; yet compressive mechanical loading does not. Furthermore, hemodynamic parameters positively correlated with subchondral plate-like trabecular bone volume but negatively associated with rod-like trabecular bone volume. In contrast, compressive mechanical loading tends to increase both plate-like and rod-like trabecular bone volume. Taken together, it warrants further investigations into the distinct role of hemodynamic or compressive stress in shaping subchondral bone in the pathophysiology of OA. The Translational potential of this article This work provides a new insight, from the angle of biomechanics, into the emerging role of vascular pathologies, such as hypertension, in the pathogenesis of OA. It might open up a new avenue for the development of a mechanism-based discovery of novel diagnostics and therapeutics.

Abstract
Background General anesthesia induces endocrine, immunologic, and metabolic responses. Anesthetic drugs affect the endocrine system by changing the level of stress hormones and hemodynamic variables of the patient. Objectives The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of propofol and dexmedetomidine on hemodynamic parameters and stress-induced hormones in laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) surgery. Methods Seventy patients of elective LC were included in this study. The patients were randomly assigned into two equal groups of propofol (75 µg/kg/min) and dexmedetomidine (0.5 µg/kg/hour) as anesthesia maintenance. Hemodynamic parameters (heart rate and mean atrial pressure), blood sugar, and serum epinephrine level were monitored and recorded from pre-anesthesia period to 10 min after entry to post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) according to a planned method. Results Heart rate and mean atrial pressure changes were significantly lower in dexmedetomidine group in all stages compared to propofol group (P < 0.001). Also, the rises in blood glucose and serum epinephrine levels in the dexmedetomidine group were significantly higher than in the propofol group (P < 0.001). Conclusions Anesthesia maintenance by dexmedetomidine showed a significant difference in hemodynamic parameters in comparison with propofol. While dexmedetomidine had better effects on controlling hemodynamic parameters, propofol showed better effects on decreasing stress hormones, and it can be suggested for LC surgery.

Abstract
The arterial baroreflex (BR) is an important neural mechanism for the stabilization of arterial pressure (AP). It is known that the insular cortex (IC) and other parts of the central autonomic network (CAN) are able to modulate the BR arc, altering baroreflex sensitivity (BRS). In addition, the sensitivity of the BR changes under the influence of hormones, in particular glucocorticoids (GC). It has been suggested that GC may influence BRS by altering the ability of the IC to modulate the BR. This hypothesis has been tested in experiments on rats anesthetized with urethane. It was found that microelectrostimulation of the visceral area in the left IC causes a short-term drop in AP, which is accompanied by bradycardia, and impairs BRS. The synthetic GC dexamethasone (DEX) did not significantly affect the magnitude of depressor responses but increased BRS and impaired the effect of IC stimulation on the BR. The results obtained confirm the hypothesis put forward and suggest that GC can attenuate the inhibitory effects of the IC on the BR arc, thereby enhancing the sensitivity of the BR.

Abstract
Cells and tissues are constantly exposed to mechanical stress. In order to respond to alterations in mechanical stimuli, specific cellular machinery must be in place to rapidly convert physical force into chemical signaling to achieve the desired physiological responses. Mechanosensitive ion channels respond to such physical stimuli in the order of microseconds and are therefore essential components to mechanotransduction. Our understanding of how these ion channels contribute to cellular and physiological responses to mechanical force has vastly expanded in the last few decades due to engineering ingenuities accompanying patch clamp electrophysiology, as well as sophisticated molecular and genetic approaches. Such investigations have unveiled major implications for mechanosensitive ion channels in cardiovascular health and disease. Therefore, in this chapter I focus on our present understanding of how biophysical activation of various mechanosensitive ion channels promotes distinct cell signaling events with tissue-specific physiological responses in the cardiovascular system. Specifically, I discuss the roles of mechanosensitive ion channels in mediating (i) endothelial and smooth muscle cell control of vascular tone, (ii) mechano-electric feedback and cell signaling pathways in cardiomyocytes and cardiac fibroblasts, and (iii) the baroreflex.

Abstract
Acetylcholine (ACh) is a novel antihypertensive food component. Here, we demonstrate the differential effects of oral ACh on high and normal blood pressure in rats. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRs) and Wistar–Kyoto (WKY) rats were administered ACh orally. The blood pressure and heart rate of SHRs were significantly lowered with ACh doses of 10−5 and 10−3 mol/kg body weight (b.w.), and the urinary catecholamine levels were significantly decreased with 10−3 mol/kg b.w. In contrast, oral ACh administration had no effect on WKY rats. This difference was likely caused by differences in sympathetic nervous activity and the baroreflex between strains. Comparison of gene sequences between the two strains revealed Chga mutations, suggesting that changes in the expression of chromogranin A might be involved in the baroreflex in SHRs. Oral ACh had an antihypertensive effect under hypertension but not normotension, indicating that this may be used safely to prevent hypertension.

Front Physiol 2021; 12:707832.

Abstract
Background Fluid responsiveness has been extensively studied by using the preload prism. The arterial load might be a factor modulating the fluid responsiveness. The norepinephrine (NE) administration increases the arterial load and modifies the vascular properties. The objective of the present study was to determine the relationship between fluid responsiveness, preload, arterial load, and NE use. We hypothesized that as a preload/arterial load, NE use may affect fluid responsiveness. Methods The retrospective multicentered analysis of the pooled data from 446 patients monitored using the transpulmonary thermodilution before and after fluid expansion (FE) was performed. FE was standardized between intensive care units (ICUs). The comparison of patients with and without NE at the time of fluid infusion was performed. Stroke volume (SV) responsiveness was defined as an increase of more than 15% of SV following the FE. Pressure responsiveness was defined as an increase of more than 15% of mean arterial pressure (MAP) following the FE. Arterial elastance was used as a surrogate for the arterial load. Results A total of 244 patients were treated with NE and 202 were not treated with NE. By using the univariate analysis, arterial elastance was correlated to SV variations with FE. However, the SV variations were not associated with NE administration (26 [15; 46]% vs. 23 [10; 37]%, p = 0.12). By using the multivariate analysis, high arterial load and NE administration were associated with fluid responsiveness. The association between arterial elastance and fluid responsiveness was less important in patients treated with NE. Arterial compliance increased in the absence of NE, but it did not change in patients treated with NE (6 [−8; 19]% vs. 0 [−13; 15]%, p = 0.03). The changes in total peripheral and arterial elastance were less important in patients treated with NE (−8 [−17; 1]% vs. −11 [−20; 0]%, p < 0.05 and −10 [−19; 0]% vs. −16 [−24; 0]%, p = 0.01). Conclusion The arterial load and NE administration were associated with fluid responsiveness. A high arterial load was associated with fluid responsiveness. In patients treated with NE, this association was lower, and the changes of arterial load following FE seemed to be driven mainly by its resistive component.

Abstract
If you cut a mobius strip in half, the edges form a Trefoil Knot, which can be untied to form a circle, proving it's a true mathematical knot. The cell is a homologue of the mathematical knot since it, too, must be able to unknot itself to form the egg and sperm meiotically in order to reproduce. The homology between a knot and a cell is thought-provoking biologically because the Trefoil Knot is a metaphor for the endoderm, ectoderm and mesoderm, the three germ layers of the gastrula that ultimately produce the embryo, beginning with the zygote. Upon further consideration, the cell membrane is like a mobius strip, forming one continuous surface between the inner environment of the cell and the outer environment. However, it is not formed by taking a circular surface, cutting it, twisting it and attaching the two ends as you would conventionally to form a mobius strip. Conversely, David Bohm's Explicate Order forms a boundary with the Implicate Order. That lipid boundary is the prima facie mobius strip that divides the infinite surface of the Implicate Order into inside and outside by 'recalling' its pre-adapted state as lipid molecules before there was an inside or outside.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Continuous and non-invasive blood pressure monitoring would revolutionize healthcare. Currently, blood pressure (BP) can only be accurately monitored using obtrusive cuff-based devices or invasive intra-arterial monitoring. In this work, we propose a novel hybrid neural network for the accurate estimation of blood pressure (BP) using only non-invasive electrocardiogram (ECG) and photoplethysmogram (PPG) waveforms as inputs. METHODS This work proposes a hybrid neural network combines the feature detection abilities of temporal convolutional layers with the strong performance on sequential data offered by long short-term memory layers. Raw electrocardiogram and photoplethysmogram waveforms are concatenated and used as network inputs. The network was developed using the TensorFlow framework. Our scheme is analysed and compared to the literature in terms of well known standards set by the British Hypertension Society (BHS) and the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation (AAMI). RESULTS Our scheme achieves extremely low mean absolute errors (MAEs) of 4.41 mmHg for SBP, 2.91 mmHg for DBP, and 2.77 mmHg for MAP. A strong level of agreement between our scheme and the gold-standard intra-arterial monitoring is shown through Bland Altman and regression plots. Additionally, the standard for BP devices established by AAMI is met by our scheme. We also achieve a grade of 'A' based on the criteria outlined by the BHS protocol for BP devices. CONCLUSIONS Our CNN-LSTM network outperforms current state-of-the-art schemes for non-invasive BP measurement from PPG and ECG waveforms. These results provide an effective machine learning approach that could readily be implemented into non-invasive wearable devices for use in continuous clinical and at-home monitoring.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent animal and human studies have shown antiarrhythmic effects inhibiting inducibility of atrial fibrillation through low-level transcutaneous electrical stimulation at the auricular branch of the vagus nerve (ABVN). OBJECTIVE The present study investigated effects of acupuncture at the ABVN on the autonomic cardiac nervous system in humans through analysis of heart rate and heart rate variability (HRV) parameters. METHODS We enrolled 24 healthy male volunteers and compared acupuncture at the ABVN to placebo-acupuncture performed at the Ma-35 point (an acupuncture point used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat pain caused by gonarthrosis). An additional measurement without acupuncture served as control. We analyzed the following heart rate and HRV parameters: standard deviation of normal-to-normal intervals (SDNN), root mean square of successive R-R interval differences (RMSSD), high frequency (HF), low frequency (LF), LF/HF ratio. RESULTS In comparison to placebo acupuncture, acupuncture at the ABVN led to a significant reduction in heart rate (approximately 4%-6%, P < .05) and an increase in overall HRV demonstrated by SDNN (approximately 19%, P < .05). RMSSD and power spectral density parameters (HF, LF, LF/HF) showed statistical trends (P < .1) induced by auricular acupuncture in favor of vagal tone. No relevant difference was shown between control and placebo group. CONCLUSION Acupuncture of the region innervated by the ABVN may activate the parasympathetic nervous system, as suggested by reduction in heart rate and increase in SDNN. However, given the lack of clear significant changes in other HRV parameters, this effect seems modest and its evaluation requires further investigation.

Abstract
The vasculature is innervated by a network of peripheral afferents that sense and regulate blood flow. Here, we describe a system of non-peptidergic sensory neurons with cell bodies in the spinal ganglia that regulate vascular tone in the distal arteries. We identify a population of mechanosensitive neurons, marked by tropomyosin receptor kinase C (TrkC) and tyrosine hydroxylase in the dorsal root ganglia, which projects to blood vessels. Local stimulation of TrkC neurons decreases vessel diameter and blood flow, whereas systemic activation increases systolic blood pressure and heart rate variability via the sympathetic nervous system. Ablation of the neurons provokes variability in local blood flow, leading to a reduction in systolic blood pressure, increased heart rate variability, and ultimately lethality within 48 h. Thus, a population of TrkC+ sensory neurons forms part of a sensory-feedback mechanism that maintains cardiovascular homeostasis through the autonomic nervous system. TrkC+/Th+ DRG neurons project to blood vessels Local stimulation of TrkC+ DRG neurons decreases vessel diameter and blood flow Systemic activation of TrkC+ DRG neurons increases blood pressure and heart rate Ablation of TrkC+ neurons dysregulates cardiovascular homeostasis and is lethal
