Abstract: OBJECTIVE Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with sympathetic overactivity. Intermittent hypoxemia and repetitive arousals are the proposed mechanisms; however, the main contributing factor for sympathetic overactivity remains to be determined. We therefore investigated the… read more here.

Abstract: The main issue addressed here is the contribution of an enhancement of the expiratory modulation of sympathetic activity to the development of neurogenic hypertension in rats submitted to chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH). Considering that active… read more here.
