The baroreflex involves cardiovascular homeostatic mechanisms that buffer the system against acute deviations in arterial blood pressure. It is comprised of the cardiac limb which involves adjustments in heart rate and the peripheral limb which involves adjustments in vascular resistance. This negative feedback loop mechanism has been investigated in numerous species of adult vertebrates, however our understanding of the maturation and functional importance of the reflex in developing animals remains poorly understood.

Background: We compared the autonomic and hemodynamic cardiovascular effects of amlodipine and enalapril treatment associated with an aerobic physical training program on spontaneously hypertensive rats.
Methods: Eighteen-week-old (n = 48) spontaneously hypertensive rats were assigned to one of two groups: sedentary (n = 24) and trained (n = 24) through a 10-week swimming training program. Each group was subdivided into three groups (n = 8): control (vehicle group), amlodipine (amlodipine group; 10 mg/kg per day) and enalapril (enalapril group; 10 mg/kg per day) (both for 10 weeks).

Background: Although cardiovascular (CV) risks are reported in first-degree relatives (FDRs) of type 2 diabetics, effects of gender on sympathovagal imbalance (SVI) and CV risks in these subjects have not been investigated.
Methods: Body mass index (BMI), blood pressure variability parameters including baroreflex sensitivity (BRS), spectral indices of heart rate variability, autonomic function tests, insulin resistance, lipid profile, inflammatory markers (interleukin 6, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, tumor necrosis factor α) and oxidative stress (OS) marker were measured and analyzed in control group (without family history of diabetes; 65 women, 60 men) and study group (FDRs of type 2 diabetics; 52 women, 49 men) subjects.
Results: BMI, heart rate, blood pressure, rate-pressure product, stroke volume, left-ventricular ejection time, cardiac output, total peripheral resistance, homeostatic model of insulin resistance, lipid profile, inflammatory and OS markers, and ratio of low-frequency to high-frequency power of heart rate variability (LF-HF ratio), a sensitive marker of SVI, were significantly increased, and BRS was significantly decreased in study group men compared with women.
