The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) plays a crucial role in the regulation of cardiovascular function, mediating rapid adjustments in heart rate and arterial blood pressure during stress, physical ...

We examined whether sympathetic nervous system activity influences hypertension status and systolic blood pressure (SBP) independent of adiposity in youth ranging from normal-weight to severe obesity.

People who have had COVID-19, even mild cases, tend to have cardiovascular imbalances in the short and medium term and need to undergo rehabilitation. This was the finding of a study of 130 volunteers ...

Researchers have created a digital topographical map of the cardiac sympathetic neural network, the region that controls the body's heart rate and its 'fight-or-flight' response. They hope this map ...

The results of a study conducted in Brazil suggest that the sympathetic nervous system - the part of the autonomous nervous system that controls responses to danger or stress - can modulate the action ...

The sympathetic nervous system was thought to have evolved with jawed vertebrates. But lampreys—jawless, parasitic fish that suck out the blood of their hosts—have a simple one, per recent research.

If exercise feels harder than it should, chronic stress may be working against you. Learn how to regulate your physiology so ...

The term “sympathetic nervous system overload” sounds daunting, but the root cause is pedestrian: stress. Stress is, of course, something we all experience all the time, but left unchecked, it can ...

This is the part of your peripheral nervous system that controls the muscles of organs without you having to think about it. Your autonomic nervous system lets your brain manage vital functions, such ...
