AU - Mahon, Anne C.. AU - Scheller, Richard H.. PY - 1983. Y1 - 1983. N2 - The Aplysia abdominal ganglion neurons, R3-R14, modulate cardiovascular activity. In vitro translations of poly(A)+ RNA from these cells suggest that they contain a prevalent mRNA encoding a 14 kd protein. Utilizing differential screening techniques with 32P-labeled cDNA synthesized from the poly(A)+ RNA of identified neurons, we isolated the corresponding gene. The Aplysia haploid genome contains a single copy of this sequence, which is interrupted by two large introns and spans ∼7 kb of genomic DNA. The R3-R14 neurons specifically express this gene, resulting in the synthesis of a 1.25 kb mRNA not found in other abdominal ganglion cells or in the head ganglia. The gene was shown to encode a 13.5 kd precursor, which is proteolytically ...

The primary objective of this study was to assess the relationship between dietary patterns with diabetes and mortality risk from all-cause and cardiovascular disease while controlling for the confounding effects of fitness. The secondary objective was to examine the combined effects of dietary patterns and fitness on chronic disease and mortality risk. Participants consisted of 13,621 men and women from the Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study who completed a standardized medical examination and 3-day diet record between 1987 and 1999. Reduced rank regression was used to identify dietary patterns that were predictive of unfavorable profiles of cholesterol, white blood cell count, glucose, mean arterial pressure, HDL-cholesterol, uric acid, triglycerides, and body mass index. One primary dietary pattern emerged, which was labeled the Unhealthy Eating Index. This pattern was characterized by a large consumption of processed meat, red meat, white potato products, non-whole grains, added fat, and a ...

A new design of flowmeter is described and used in a comprehensive study of the respiratory and cardiovascular adjustments that occur during a standardised exercise test in Thoroughbred horses. The flowmeter system and associated lightweight, fibreglass mask (total mass, 0.7 kg) have a maximum dead space of 500 ml and negligible resistance to airflow. They have no systematic effect on blood gases and, together with a rapidly responding mass spectrometer, enable an accurate computation of gas exchange to be performed together with breath-by-breath determination of other respiratory variables. At the highest level of exercise (12 ms-1 on a 3 degrees incline), the rate of oxygen uptake (VO2) and carbon dioxide production (VCO2) increased to 29.4 times and 36.8 times their resting values, respectively. Respiratory minute volume (VE) increased to 27.0 times its resting value, with respiratory frequency (fR) making the major contribution at the walk and trot. However, with increasing cantering speeds, ...

In view of the remarkable decrease of the relative heart weight and the relative blood volume in growing pigs, we investigated whether cardiac output (CO) and stroke volume (SV) of modern growing pigs are proportional to body mass (M), as predicted by allometric scaling laws: CO (or SV) = a.M(b), ... read more in which b is a multitude of 0.25 (quarter power scaling law). Specifically, we tested the hypothesis that CO scales with M to the power of 0.75 (CO = a.M(0.75)) and SV scales with M to the power of 1.00 (SV = a.M(1.0)) and investigated whether these relations persisted during increased cardiac stress. For this purpose, 2 groups of pigs (group 1 of 57 +/- 3 kg in Lelystad, and group 2 of 28 +/- 1 kg in Rotterdam) were chronically instrumented with a flow probe to measure CO and SV; instrumented pigs were studied at rest and during strenuous exercise (at approximately 85% of maximum heart rate). Analysis of both groups of pigs (analyzed separately or combined) under resting conditions ...

Two programs were used to demonstrate the effects of drugs on cardiovascular function. The Virtual Cat and RatCVS software programs developed by the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, UK offer different platforms for CVS experimentation in whole animal models. The virtual cat can be used to demonstrate the effects of 15 standard drugs and 17 unknown drugs on blood pressure and heart rate, skeletal muscle contractions, and nictitating membrane twitches. Students used this program to investigate the effects of agonists, antagonists, and vasodilators on cardiovascular function. RatCVS simulates pithed and normal rat preparations, which are suitable for demonstrating the effects of drugs on the cardiovascular system without the superimposing effects of central baroreceptor reflexes. Pithing refers to the destruction of the spinal cord and the severance of central innervation to the cardiovascular system. The software gave options of using pithed or normal rat and provided the option of using 22 ...

Short-term complexity of heart period (HP) and systolic arterial pressure (SAP) was computed to detect age and gender influences over cardiovascular control in resting supine condition (REST) and during standing (STAND). Healthy subjects (n = 110, men = 55) were equally divided into five groups (21-30; 31-40; 41-50; 51-60; and 61-70 years of age). HP and SAP series were recorded for 15 min at REST and during STAND. A normalized complexity index (NCI) based on conditional entropy was assessed. At REST we found that both NCIHP and NCISAP decreased with age in the overall population, but only women were responsible for this trend. During STAND we observed that both NCIHP and NCISAP were unrelated to age in the overall population, even when divided by gender. When the variation of NCI in response to STAND (ΔNCI = NCI at REST-NCI during STAND) was computed individually, we found that ΔNCIHP progressively decreased with age in the overall population, and women were again responsible for this trend.

Background: Cardiorespiratory fitness involves both cardiovascular and respiratory capacities. However, existing methods have been criticised for reflecting cardiovascular fitness, but not pulmonary fitness. The objective of this study was to investigate the relationship between these two testing parameters. Methods: A cross-sectional population-based physical fitness assessment was conducted in 23 schools. The body height and weight, lung capacity, and step test results of students aged 10-18 were recorded. Criterion-referenced standards from the China Sports Bureau were adopted, as they include separate measurements for cardiovascular and pulmonary fitness. Results: The Pearson coefficients of lung capacity and the step test index from 13,028 schoolchildren ranged from 0.007 to 0.086 and from 0.026 to 0.105 for boys and girls, respectively, showing that poor correlations exist between the two parameters. Cluster analysis resulted in three clusters of children with similar characteristics

Nowadays, the burden of cardiovascular disease represents a major global public health issue, both for its economic and social consequences. Along with improved prevention and treatment strategies, a prompt diagnosis is therefore a mainstay in cardiovascular patients management. Following a paradigm shift which occurred over the last decades, the diagnostic approach to cardiovascular problems is no longer limited to identification of a disease in patients with clinical symptoms, but rather it currently involves early detection of individuals with elevated risk of developing cardiovascular alterations (due to the presence of risk factors or preclinical organ damage), in whom targeted interventions aimed at interfering with the progression along the cardiovascular continuum may significantly change the natural history of the disease.. Many indicators of increased cardiovascular risk have been identified over the years. Along with the classic cardiovascular risk factors such as elevated blood ...

Flipped learning is a learner centered strategy in which students are exposed to the fundamentals of a concept prior to attending the classroom session. Content is delivered via a learning module that is presented in the form of a video, power point, or some other type of instructional medium. This frees up class time for deeper learning activities that address the understanding and application of this newly learned concept (Bergman & Sams, 2012). In this way, the flipped learning model lends itself very well for the scaffolding of a difficult concept, thereby providing learning structure and precluding the learner from becoming overwhelmed by complexities (Tawfik & Lilly, 2015). Cardiovascular physiology, which deals with the workings of the heart and blood vessels is conceptually difficult for students because of its highly integrative nature. The learner has to juggle several different disciplines such as physics, chemistry, and biology and varying levels of organization such as molecules, ...

Dr. Wier is an widely recognized cardiovascular physiologist, researcher and educator as well as an author of the text Cardiovascular Physiology,10th Ed.

The concept that the cardiovascular system works better when the heart and the arterial system are coupled has been well demonstrated [5, 6]. When the heart pumps blood into the vascular tree at a rate and volume that matches the capability of the arterial system to receive it, both cardiovascular performance and its associated cardiac energetics are optimal [7, 8]. A contractility or arterial tone that is too high or too low decouples these processes and can lead to cardiac failure independent of myocardial ischemia or the toxic effects of sepsis and related systemic disease processes. This optimization means that the LV workload and the arterial system optimally match when the left ventricle ejects the blood into the arterial system and is quantified by ventriculo-arterial (V-A) coupling analysis. This process is optimized without excessive changes in LV pressure, and the mechanical energy of LV ejection is completely transferred from the ventricle to the arterial system [9, 10].The role of ...

Have you ever looked at people exercising and wonder why they continue to do so when they are obviously in really good shape? Sure, there is a need to exercise in order to maintain the body you have built, but there are also the changes to your body that happen the moment you decide that you no longer need to hit the gym. What may come as a surprise is that many of these changes start to happen very quickly, and the effects that they deliver can be felt in no time at all. Lets look at some of the reasons why you should not stop exercising.. When you commit to exercising regularly, one of the first things that you notice is that it becomes easier to breathe after a pretty short period of time. This is because of the flow of oxygen in your body and improvements to your cardiovascular health. This is one of the first things affected when you hit the couch instead of the gym, with a decrease in cardiovascular performance happening within a week. The longer you go without working out, the more it ...
