Hypohydration, defined as a state of low body water, increases thirst sensations, arginine
vasopressin release, and elicits renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system activation to …

Hypertension is a primary risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is
the leading cause of death among adults worldwide. In this review, we focus on two of the …

Ever since their origin more than one half-century ago, microneurographic recordings of
sympathetic nerve activity have significantly advanced our understanding of the generation …

Purpose Sympathetic vasoconstriction plays a major role in the beat-to-beat control of blood
pressure. To be effective and thus avoid dangerously high or low blood pressures, this …

Purpose Larger blood pressure (BP) responses to relative-intensity static exercise in men
versus women are thought to involve altered muscle metaboreflex activation, but whether …

Bursts of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and the ensuing vasoconstriction are
pivotal determinants of beat-by-beat blood pressure regulation. Although age and sex …

The purpose of this study was to determine whether there are sex differences in the
cardiorespiratory and sympathetic neurocirculatory responses to central, peripheral, and …

It has been suggested that sex differences in acute blood pressure fluctuations occur during
the periods of time between bursts of muscle sympathetic nerve activity. Therefore, we tested …

The cardiovascular response to exercise is largely determined by neurocirculatory control
mechanisms that help to raise blood pressure and modulate vascular resistance which, in …

Purpose Lower aerobic fitness increases the risk of developing hypertension. Muscle
sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) is important for the beat-by-beat regulation of blood …
