Cardiorespiratory and Cardiac Biomarker Responses to Five Anesthetic Regimens in Rats

This study compares five anesthetic regimens in rats, finding differences in cardiovascular effects, ventilation, and biomarker responses, with varying recovery of autonomic variability.

Melanocortin system activates carotid body arterial chemoreceptors in hypertension

The paper identifies the melanocortin system's role in heightened carotid body chemosensitivity in hypertension, showing MC4R activation influences sympathetic and ventilatory responses.

Asymmetric neuromodulation in the respiratory network contributes to rhythm and pattern generation

The paper investigates how asymmetric neuromodulation in the respiratory network influences rhythm and pattern generation through computational modeling and electrophysiological experiments.

Reverse remodelling of the mitochondria and cytoskeleton after respiratory heart rate variability pacing of the failing sheep heart

This study shows that respiratory heart rate variability pacing improves cardiac output in failing sheep hearts by restoring mitochondrial function and cytoskeletal structure.

Heartbeats entrain breathing via baroreceptor-mediated modulation of expiratory activity

The paper investigates how heartbeats influence breathing through baroreceptor-mediated modulation of expiratory activity in both humans and rodent models.
