This study assessed whether sleep-dependent changes in the relationship between heart period (HP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) occur in newborn life. Electrodes for electrocorticographic, electromyographic, and ...

We compared blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability to glucose between quiet wakefulness and rapid-eye-movement (REM) sleep to assess whether changes in BBB permeability play a role in coupling glucose supply to the physiologic ...

We investigated by means of quantitative EEG (qEEG) analysis EEG traces of patients with brain trauma (with and without posttraumatic epilepsy) with respect to control group. The aim of our work was to determine if there ...

Study Objectives: The interplay between cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) and vascular resistance leads to fluctuations in cerebral blood flow (CBF). The relationship between fluctuations in CBF and those in CPP provides ...

Spontaneous fluctuations in Heart Period (HP) and Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) make it possible to evaluate baroreceptor-heart rate reflex sensitivity (BRS). 30-s sequences of HP and MAP beat-to-beat values were considered ...

The interaction of wake-sleep states and acoustic stimulation on cardiovascular regulation was studied on rats implanted with electroencephalogram and electromyogram electrodes and an arterial catheter. Mild acoustic stimuli ...

Hypertension is accompanied by circulatory changes in the brain and in other vascular districts; at disease onset, these changes may be largely functional and dependent on metabolic and vegetative drives. The wake-sleep ...

Glucocorticoid hormones are involved in regulation of cell processes and coordinate physiological response to diverse signals. These hormones, through interaction with specific intracellular receptors, coordinate components ...
