Purpose: We conducted a meta-analysis to determine the effect of hyperoxia on muscle sympathetic nerve activity in healthy individuals and those with cardio-metabolic diseases.
Methods: A comprehensive search of electronic databases was performed until August 2022. All study designs (except reviews) were included: population (humans; apparently healthy or with at least one chronic disease); exposures (muscle sympathetic nerve activity during hyperoxia or hyperbaria); comparators (hyperoxia or hyperbaria vs.

We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the effect of acute poikilocapnic, high-altitude, and acute isocapnia hypoxemia on muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) and cardiovascular function. A comprehensive search across electronic databases was performed until June 2021. All observational designs were included: population (healthy individuals); exposures (MSNA during hypoxemia); comparators (hypoxemia severity and duration); outcomes (MSNA; heart rate, HR; and mean arterial pressure, MAP).

Solid state structural analysis of the BMIMCN-ligated Mn-triflate complexes (R,R-C4 and S,S-C4) revealed opposite helicity but identical metal site accessibility. This feature was exploited in the catalytic oxidation of primary and secondary alcohols, with hydrogen peroxide as oxidant and acetic acid as co-catalyst.
