1. Effect of cervical sympathetic block on cerebral vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage in rabbits
PURPOSE: Cerebral vasospasm (CVS) is a major complication after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) induced by the rupture of intracranial aneurysms. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect and mechanism of cervical sympathetic block on cerebral vasospasm of the rabbits after SAH. METHODS: After successful modeling of cervical sympathetic block,

2. Rastreamento em vídeo das características da pupila / Video tracking of pupil features
The study of the pupil s movements has signicant clinical interest because it acts as an objective indicator of retinal sensitivity to light and, consequently, of the optic nerve. Its permanent oscillation is the result of balance between opposing ows of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. The pupil s state of an individual allows the diagnos

3. Hypertensive effects of the iv administration of picomoles of ouabain
Ouabain, an endogenous digitalis compound, has been detected in nanomolar concentrations in the plasma of several mammals and is associated with the development of hypertension. In addition, plasma ouabain is increased in several hypertension models, and the acute or chronic administration of ouabain increases blood pressure in rodents. These results suggest

4. Effects of estrogen replacement therapy in hemodinamic and neural responses to acute aerobic exercise in post-menopausal women / Efeitos isolados e associados da terapia de reposição oral estrogênica e do exercício físico aeróbico nas respostas hemodinâmicas e neurais em mulheres no período pós-menopausa
The post-menopause is marked by physiological hemodynamic and metabolic changes. The estrogen replacement therapy is a way to reduce the consequences of hormone deficiency and physical exercise contributes significantly to the reduction of cardiovascular risk. The aim of this study was to evaluate in post-menopausal women the isolated and associated effects

5. Efeito agudo do exercicío físico aeróbico na atividade nervosa simpática periférica de pacientes portadores de doença renal crônica - estágio III / Acute effectof aerobic exercise in the muscle sympathetic nerve activity in patients with chronic kidney disease stage III
A principal causa de mortalidade nos pacientes com doença renal crônica é a doença cardiovascular. A alta prevalência de hipertensão arterial nestes pacientes e sua relação com riscos cardiovasculares são indiscutíveis. A doença renal crônica é caracterizada pela hiperatividade simpática, o que contribui para gênese ou agravo da hipertensão a

6. Anandamide injected into the lateral ventricle of the brain inhibits submandibular salivary secretion by attenuating parasympathetic neurotransmission
Our objective was to determine the effect of arachidonylethanolamide (anandamide, AEA) injected intracerebroventricularly (icv) into the lateral ventricle of the rat brain on submandibular gland (SMG) salivary secretion. Parasympathetic decentralization (PSD) produced by cutting the chorda tympani nerve strongly inhibited methacholine (MC)-induced salivary s

7. Integrated Cardio-Respiratory Mechanisms within the brainstem: Involvement of the Caudal Pressor Area, the Nucleus of the Solitary Tract and the Retrotrapezopid Nucleus. / Mecanismos Cardio-Respiratórios Integrados na Região Bulbar: Participação da Área Pressora Caudal, dos Núcleos do Trato Solitário e do Núcleo Retrotrapezóide.
Cardiovascular responses are integrated at different levels of the central nervous system (CNS). In the brainstem, there are different areas related to the cardiovascular control. It is well known that in the ventrolateral medulla there are, at least, three important regions involved with cardiovascular control: the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), the

8. Role of the caudal pressor area in the regulation of sympathetic vasomotor tone
It is well known that the ventrolateral medulla contains neurons involved in the tonic and reflex control of the cardiovascular system. Two regions within the ventrolateral medulla were initially identified: the rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) and the caudal ventrolateral medulla (CVLM). Activation of the RVLM raises arterial blood pressure and sympathe

9. Effects of exercise training on neurovascular control in heart failure patients treated with Carvedilol / Efeito do treinamento físico no controle neurovascular e capacidade funcional em pacientes com insuficiência cardíaca em uso de carvedilol
Evidence suggests that carvedilol decreases muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) in patients with heart failure(HF) but carvedilol fails to improve forearm vascular resistance and overall functional capacity. Exercise training in HF reduces MSNA and improves forearm vascular resistance and functional capacity. The aim of study was to investigate whether

10. O sistema nervoso periferico na doença de Machado-Joseph : aspectos clinicos e neurofisiologicos / Clinical and neurophysiological study of the peripheral nervous system um Machado-Joseph disease
Machado-Joseph disease or spinocerebellar ataxia 3 (SCA3/MJD) is the most frequent autosomal dominant ataxia in Brazil and caused by an unstable trinucleotide (CAG) repeat expansion in the 10th exon of the MJD1 gene on chromosome 14q. It is a chronic and debilitating neurologic disorder characterized by cerebellar ataxia, pyramidal dysfunction, dystonia, gaz

11. Modifications of the sympathetic skin response in workers chronically exposed to lead
The long-term effects of low-level lead intoxication are not known. The sympathetic skin response (SSR) was evaluated in a group of 60 former workers of a primary lead smelter, located in Santo Amaro, BA, Brazil. The individuals participating in the study were submitted to a clinical-epidemiological evaluation including questions related to potential risk fa

12. Efeito do treinamento físico no controle barorreflexo da atividade nervosa simpática e freqüência cardíaca em indivíduos hipertensos / The effects of exercise training on baroreflex control of sympathetic nerve activity and heart rate in hypertensive patients
Previous studies demonstrated that exercise training improves the baroreflex control of heart rate in spontaneously hypertensive rats. However, the effects of exercise training on baroreflex control of sympathetic nerve activity and heart rate in patients with hypertension are unknown. We hypothesized that exercise training would improve baroreflex control o
