Autonomic control of blood pressure and heart rate in obese hypertensive dogs

Autonomic control of blood pressure and heart rate in obese hypertensive dogs

Autonomic control of cardiovascular function was evaluated in nine dogs before and after a high-fat overfeeding regimen. Data suggest that an increase in heart rate observed in obese dogs may be due to a decrease in parasympathetic inhibition rather than an increase in sympathetic stimulation.
