This review examines how the sympathetic nervous system plays a major role in the
regulation of cardiovascular function over multiple time scales. This is achieved through …

The sympathetic nervous system provides differentiated regulation of the functions of various
organs. This differentiated regulation occurs via mechanisms that operate at multiple sites …

1 Peroneal muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSA), finger blood pressure and cardiac
intervals were recorded at rest in 60 healthy subjects, aged 18–71 years. Arterial baroreflex …

Central nervous processing of environmental stimuli requires integration of sensory
information with ongoing autonomic control of cardiovascular function. Rhythmic feedback of …

This review focuses on that most engaging feature of the sympathetic nervous system, its
rhythmicity. In particular examining the nature of sympathetic nerve activity (SNA), its …

As a primary component of homeostasis, the sympathetic nervous system enables rapid
adjustments to stress through its ability to communicate messages among organs and cause …

The sympathetic nervous system provides differentiated regulation of the functions of various
organs. This differentiated regulation occurs through mechanisms that operate at multiple …

The renal nerves constrict the renal vasculature, causing decreases in renal blood flow
(RBF) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Whether renal haemodynamics are influenced by …

Objective Recent evidence indicates that stress is associated with obesity, hypertension and
metabolic abnormalities. Stress pathways, including both the hypothalamic–pituitary …

In light of the nonequilibrium thermodynamics by I. Prigogine, the autonomic nervous system
as a whole may be viewed as a dissipative structure progressively assembled in the course …
