Temporal development of baroreceptor dysfunction in a rodent model of chronic kidney disease

Summary Altered autonomic control of the cardiovascular system in chronic kidney disease (CKD) contributes to an increased risk of cardiovascular events. The aim of the present study was to determine whether and when autonomic dysfunction occurs in a conscious, telemetered, rodent model of CKD. In L...

Zusammenfassung:Summary Altered autonomic control of the cardiovascular system in chronic kidney disease (CKD) contributes to an increased risk of cardiovascular events. The aim of the present study was to determine whether and when autonomic dysfunction occurs in a conscious, telemetered, rodent model of CKD. In Lewis polycystic kidney (LPK; n = 8) and Lewis (n = 8) rats, blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR), HR variability (HRV), systolic BP variability (SBPV) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) were determined from 10 to 16 weeks of age. The LPK rats had higher systolic BP (average across all ages: 230 ± 10 vs 122.6 ± 0.3 mmHg; P
