Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) may decrease cardiac output (CO) by lowering circulating blood volume (BV) or by altering the vasculature in a manner that would decrease venous return. The purpose of this study was to determine the role of decreased BV in mediating the decrease in CO during acute infusion of ANP. BV was measured by dilution of 51Cr-labeled red blood cells in seven trained conscious splenectomized dogs studied after unilateral (UNX) and total (TNX) nephrectomy. BV, hematocrit (Hct), CO, mean arterial pressure (MAP), and total peripheral resistance (TPR) were determined during a 90-min control period and 270 min of infusion of ANP (20 ng.kg-1.min-1 iv). In UNX dogs, ANP decreased BV from 60.9 +/- 1.4 to 58.6 +/- 1.4 ml/kg and increased Hct from 39.3 +/- 1.8% to 41.1 +/- 1.8% (P less than 0.05). MAP was not changed and CO fell to a low that was 86 +/- 2% of control (P less than 0.05) 240 min after starting ANP. TPR increased significantly during ANP infusion. All variables returned to control after ANP was stopped. In the same dogs studied 24 h after TNX, MAP averaged 111 +/- 5 mmHg during control and did not change during ANP infusion. CO fell to a low of 82 +/- 3% of control (P less than 0.05) after 120 min of infusion and remained reduced until after the ANP was stopped.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Atrial Natriuretic

To examine mechanisms by which administration of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) decreases venous return, we compared the hemodynamic effects of ANP (0.5 microgram X min-1 X kg-1), furosemide (FU, 10 micrograms X min-1 X kg-1), and hexamethonium (HEX, 0.5 mg X min-1 X kg-1) with those of vehicle (VE) in anesthetized rats. Compared with VE, ANP reduced mean arterial pressure (106 +/- 4 vs. 92 +/- 3 mmHg; P less than 0.05), central venous pressure (0.3 +/- 0.3 vs. -0.7 +/- 0.2 mmHg; P less than 0.01), and cardiac index (215 +/- 12 vs. 174 +/- 10 ml X min-1 X kg-1; P less than 0.05) and increased calculated resistance to venous return (32 +/- 3 vs. 42 +/- 2 mmHg X ml-1 X min X g; P less than 0.01). Mean circulatory filling pressure, distribution of blood flow between splanchnic organs and skeletal muscles, and total peripheral resistance remained unchanged. FU increased urine output similar to that of ANP, yet produced no hemodynamic changes, dissociating diuresis, and decreased cardiac output. HEX lowered arterial pressure through a reduction in total peripheral resistance without altering cardiac output or resistance to venous return. The results confirm previous findings that ANP decreases cardiac output through a reduction in venous return and suggest that this results partly from increased resistance to venous return and not from venodilation or redistribution of blood flow.

In awake dogs with atrioventricular block, we examined the responses in total peripheral resistance and atrial rate to square-wave changes in mean arterial pressure or cardiac output. We compared the responses 2-3 min after a step change with the responses 19-20 min after a step. With resetting of arterial pressure control, the compensatory responses should decrease as the baroreceptors reset to the prevailing pressure. With step changes in mean arterial pressure or cardiac output, the responses in both peripheral resistance and atrial rate increased from minutes 2-3 to minutes 19-20. The responses in peripheral resistance also increased in animals studied after bilateral vagal block. All of the above changes were significant in the majority of cases. In another experiment, the animals were "conditioned" by 20 min at imposed high or low pressure. When control was returned to the animal after conditioning at high pressure, arterial pressure was not significantly different (P greater than 0.05) from the initial control levels. When control was returned after conditioning at low pressure, arterial pressure was significantly greater (P less than 0.05) than during the initial control period. These results indicate an absence of resetting of the entire arterial pressure control system.

Cardiac Responses

Sympathoactivation may be excessive during exercise in subjects with hypertension, leading to increased susceptibility to adverse cardiovascular events, including arrhythmias, infarction, stroke, and sudden cardiac death. The muscle metaboreflex is a powerful cardiovascular reflex capable of eliciting marked increases in sympathetic activity during exercise. We used conscious, chronically instrumented dogs trained to run on a motor-driven treadmill to investigate the effects of hypertension on the mechanisms of the muscle metaboreflex. Experiments were performed before and 30.9 ± 4.2 days after induction of hypertension, which was induced via partial, unilateral renal artery occlusion. After induction of hypertension, resting mean arterial pressure was significantly elevated from 98.2 ± 2.6 to 141.9 ± 7.4 mmHg. The hypertension was caused by elevated total peripheral resistance. Although cardiac output was not significantly different at rest or during exercise after induction of hypertension, the rise in cardiac output with muscle metaboreflex activation was significantly reduced in hypertension. Metaboreflex-induced increases in left ventricular function were also depressed. These attenuated cardiac responses caused a smaller metaboreflex-induced rise in mean arterial pressure. We conclude that the ability of the muscle metaboreflex to elicit increases in cardiac function is impaired in hypertension, which may contribute to exercise intolerance.

Antidiuretic Activity

Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is known to produce increases in total peripheral resistance (TPR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) and decreases in heart rate (HR), cardiac output (CO), and plasma renin activity (PRA). Some recent observations with AVP and synthetic analogues have suggested that under certain conditions, AVP can induce cardiovascular and reninsecretory responses in the opposite directions. To characterize the receptors mediating these responses, the effects of AVP, oxytocin, and synthetic neurohypophyseal analogues with specific antidiuretic, vasoconstrictor, or oxytocic activities were studied in conscious dogs. AVP and 2-phenylalanine-8-ornithine-oxytocin (Phe2Orn8OT, a selective vasoconstrictor agonist) produced similar responses when infused at 10 ng X kg-1 X min-1. That is, TPR and MAP increased, and CO, HR, and PRA decreased. Pretreatment with a selective vasoconstrictor antagonist, [1-(beta-mercapto-beta,beta-cyclopentamethylenepropionic acid) 2-(O-methyl)tyrosine]AVP, abbreviated d(CH2)5Tyr(Me)-AVP (10 micrograms/kg), blocked the actions of Phe2Orn8OT. However, in the presence of d(CH2)5Tyr(Me)AVP, AVP actually decreased TPR and increased CO, HR, and PRA. An analogue with selective antidiuretic activity, 4-valine-8-D-AVP (VDAVP, 10 ng X kg-1 X min-1), produced the same effects as the combination of vasopressin plus d(CH2)5Tyr(Me)AVP. Neither the effects of VDAVP nor of AVP plus antagonist were blocked by propranolol (1 mg/kg). These data indicate that vasopressin, by its antidiuretic activity, produces cardiovascular effects that are opposite to many of those produced by its vasoconstrictor action and that these effects are not dependent on mediation by beta-adrenoceptors.

Introduction Migraine and vasovagal syncope are comorbid conditions that may share part of their pathophysiology through autonomic control of the systemic circulation. Nitroglycerin can trigger both syncope and migraine attacks, suggesting enhanced systemic sensitivity in migraine. We aimed to determine the cardiovascular responses to nitroglycerin in migraine. Methods In 16 women with migraine without aura and 10 age- and gender-matched controls without headache, intravenous nitroglycerin (0.5 µg·kg−1·min−1) was administered. Finger photoplethysmography continuously assessed cardiovascular parameters (mean arterial pressure, heart rate, cardiac output, stroke volume and total peripheral resistance) before, during and after nitroglycerin infusion. Results Nitroglycerin provoked a migraine-like attack in 13/16 (81.2%) migraineurs but not in controls ( p = .0001). No syncope was provoked. Migraineurs who later developed a migraine-like attack showed different responses in all parameters vs. controls (all p < .001): The decreases in cardiac output and stroke volume were more rapid and longer lasting, heart rate increased, mean arterial pressure and total peripheral resistance were higher and decreased steeply after an initial increase. Discussion Migraineurs who developed a migraine-like attack in response to nitroglycerin showed stronger systemic cardiovascular responses compared to non-headache controls. The stronger systemic cardiovascular responses in migraine suggest increased systemic sensitivity to vasodilators, possibly due to insufficient autonomic compensatory mechanisms.

Halothane Anesthesia

The cardiovascular effects of moxibustion at Jen Chung (Go-26) in 10 dogs under halothane anesthesia were compared to 5 dogs under halothane anesthesia without moxibustion and 5 dogs under halothane anesthesia in which moxibustion was effected at a neutral or non-acupuncture site. Cardiac output, stroke volume, heart rate, mean arterial pressure, central venous pressure, total peripheral resistance, pH, PaCO2, PaO2 and base deficit were measured over a two-hour period. A significant increase in cardiac output and stroke volume and a significant decrease in the total peripheral resistance were observed in the group which was stimulated by moxibustion at Jen Chun (Go-26). Heart rate, mean arterial pressure and pulse pressure were significantly increase during the early part of the two-hour period in the same group. The cardiovascular effects of moxibustion at Jen Chung (Go-26) which were observed at the end of the two hours were also present in two dogs in which measurements were continued for two additional hours.

By its nature, circulatory physiology is also susceptible to circular reasoning because every part of an interconnected system is affected by, and affects, every other part. If we're not careful, we end up saying things like ‘venous return equals cardiac output’ when, in the steady state, that is true by definition and nothing new is gained. If we grant that right atrial pressure (PRA) is the ‘downstream’ pressure for venous return, then it follows that PRA should be inversely related to venous return (and therefore, to cardiac output). If we simply apply Ohm's law to the cardiovascular system, we forget that the mean arterial pressure not only contributes to venous return but also is sustained by venous return. If venous return fails for any other reason (unrelated to arterial pressure), so too will mean arterial pressure eventually fail.

A new technique is described that allows minute-to-minute recordings of cardiac output and arterial pressure in unanesthetized rats for periods of 24 h and longer. Rats were instrumented with electromagnetic flow probes and arterial catheters. An electrical and hydraulic swivel was interposed between the rat and recording apparatus to allow free range of movement. Data were collected and analyzed once each minute by computer. Average 24-h values (mean +/- SD) for the following hemodynamic variables were determined in eight rats [expressed where appropriate as a function of body weight (BW)]: cardiac output (98.1 +/- 14.7 ml/min), cardiac index (29.2 +/- 4.4 ml.min-1.100 g BW-1), mean arterial pressure (92.5 +/- 7.8 mmHg), heart rate (347 +/- 45 beats/min), peak aortic flow (403 +/- 32 ml/min), stroke volume (282 +/- 26 microliters), stroke volume index (84.4 +/- 8.1 microliters/100 g BW), and total peripheral resistance index (3.26 +/- 0.46 mmHg.ml-1.min.100 g BW). These results provide a data base of hemodynamic values for unanesthetized adult, Sprague-Dawley male rats, which has not been previously available. In addition, cardiac index, mean arterial pressure, and total peripheral resistance index demonstrated diurnal variation. Diurnal variation contributed substantially to the overall variance observed within these variables. Hourly variance was also substantial and indicates the use of continuous recordings for short-term experiments.

Leg Exercise

Ten men repeatedly performed leg exercise (100–150 W) for 7 min with 30-min recovery periods interspersed. Both legs were made ischemic by total occlusion (OCCL), first for 3 min immediately after exercise and second for 30 s before exercise ended and 3 min into recovery. In addition legs were occluded for 3 min at rest (seated). OCCL at rest increased mean arterial pressure (MAP) by 9 Torr but did not affect cardiac output (CO) or heart rate (HR). OCCL at the end of exercise significantly raised MAP and HR above control values during 3-min recovery but CO was unaffected. OCCL 30 s before the end of exercise further increased MAP and HR significantly during recovery; MAP, CO, and HR were significantly increased above control values (CO by 2.1 1-min-1) during the 3rd min of recovery. We conclude that a strong reflex from ischemic legs maintains normal or elevated CO during leg OCCL. Thus CO was too high relative to total vascular conductance so that MAP was elevated.

1. Haemodynamic responses to diazoxide (300 mg intravenously) were studied in 15 hypertensive patients before and after chronic β-adrenoreceptor blockade by 320 mg of propranolol daily. After diazoxide alone, mean arterial pressure and total peripheral resistance were lowered by 24 ± 3 and 35 ± 5% (mean ± sem) respectively. Cardiac output and heart rate rose by 25 ± 9 and 21 ± 3%. During β-adrenoreceptor blockade, the percentage changes of mean arterial pressure, heart rate, cardiac output and total peripheral resistance after vasodilatation were not significantly different from those after diazoxide alone. 2. Atropine, 0·04 mg/kg body weight, was given to 12 hypertensive patients chronically treated with β-adrenoreceptor blockade, before acute vasodilatation by diazoxide. Diazoxide caused no increase in heart rate after combined β-adrenoreceptor and parasympathetic blockade. However, cardiac output rose by 14 ± 5%. 3. We conclude that withdrawal of parasympathetic tone is an important determinant of circulatory homeostasis after acute vasodilatation during β-adrenoreceptor blockade.
