Abstract

Normal and sinoaortic baroreceptor-denervated dogs were monitored continuously (24 hours a day) to quantify the role of the baroreceptors in determining the average level and the variability of arterial blood pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, and total peripheral resistance. The frequency of occurrence over 24-hour periods was obtained for each variable using a fiber optic curve-scanning system to read the variables from continuously recorded charts and a digital computer system to plot curves. The results indicate that the degree of hypertension previously reported for this preparation has been highly exaggerated, presumably due to the methods of study. The average 24-hour mean arterial blood pressure was 101.6 mm Hg in normal dogs and only 112.7 mm Hg in baroreceptor-denervated dogs. The normal dogs exhibited narrowly distributed 24-hour frequency distribution curves for blood pressure; in contrast the denervated dogs exhibited curves with twice the 24-hour standard deviation. Similar analysis indicated that the baroreceptors exerted less influence on the daily stabilization of heart rate than they did on arterial blood pressure and that they had very little if any influence on the daily stabilization of cardiac output and total peripheral resistance. Hemodynamic variables during postural changes were studied along with diurnal rhythms. We concluded that the primary function of the baroreceptor reflex is not to set the chronic level of arterial blood pressure but, instead, to minimize variations in systemic arterial blood pressure, whether these variations are caused by postural changes of the animal, excitement, diurnal rhythm, or even spontaneous fluctuations of unknown origin.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
