Apr 4, 2015 · During rest, sleep, or emotional tranquility, the parasympathetic nervous system predominates and controls the heart rate at a resting rate of 60-75 bpm. At any given time, the effect of the ANS on the heart is the net balance between the opposing actions of the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems. Figure 1.

Aug 19, 2008 · Cardiovascular effects include heart rate reduction by inhibition of the sympathetic nervous system and by direct hyperpolarization of sinus nodal cells. Parasympathetic activation can affect atrioventricular nodal conduction mediated predominantly through the left vagus nerve.

Oct 25, 2022 · The network of nerves supplying the heart is called the cardiac plexus. It receives contributions from the right and left vagus nerves, as well as contributions from the sympathetic trunk. These are responsible for influencing heart rate, cardiac output, and contraction forces of the heart.

The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) has a wide variety of cardiovascular effects, including heart-rate acceleration, increased cardiac contractility, reduced venous capacitance, and peripheral vasoconstriction. 1,3 Conversely, the parasympathetic nervous system affects the cardiovascular system by slowing the heart rate through vagal ...

Heart rate (HR), heart rate variability (HRV) and heart rate recovery time (HRRT) following a stressor are physiological indices which vary according to physiological and pathophysiological influences.1–3 Intrinsic factors include inherent automaticity of pacemaker cells, extrinsic mechanisms involve the balance between parasympathetic and sympathe...
Intrinsic mechanisms of homeostatic regulation of HR include functions of the cardiac conductive system. Automaticity of depolarization within the sinoatrial node leads to ongoing generation of action potentials, mainly as a result of calcium ion movement into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. This automaticity is self-regulating, with changes of concent...
Resting parasympathetic and sympathetic tone act in opposition, allowing homeostasis to be achieved despite changing physiological demands, with dromotropy (the conduction velocity) and chronotropy (HR) being the primary functions related to HR affected by autonomic tone. Higher sympathetic drive causes dromotropy to be increased through increased ...
Shear stress and shear frequency
Shear stress on vascular endothelium is the tangential force generated by velocity of flow. The endothelial response leads to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Higher frequency of HR causes greater force overtime leading to expression of proinflammatory, proapoptotic and procoagulant genes, along with a reduction of nitric oxide synthase production. Mechanical forces of cyclical strain are additionally associated with increased vascular stiffness. Mechanical stress may additionally play a...
Endothelial dysfunction
The effect of HR and endothelial dysfunction has been investigated in animal models showing that ivabradine treatment reduces HR (by 13.4%) coupled with enhanced endothelial dependent vasorelaxation.14 Further studies using ivabradine in dyslipidemic mice showed a reduction in endothelial dysfunction in renal and cerebral arteries.15 No studies have demonstrated real-world clinical data linking HR and endothelial function. The Framingham study has shown a correlation between HR and brachial a...
Vascular inflammation
There is a relationship between markers of vascular inflammation and HR; Studies have shown a correlation of CRP, WCC and fibrinogen with HR in otherwise healthy individuals.9 In the I-SEARCH study, higher resting HR was predictive of the presence of microalbuminuria in a hypertensive cohort.18 Ulleryd et al.19demonstrated a correlation in 124 men between reduced parasympathetic activity, CRP, white cell count and carotid atheroma area. Neurological influence on inflammation is an area which...
HR variability
HRV represents the capacity of the autonomic response to physiological or pathophysiological demands. The significance of this variable was initially noted in 1965 with the observation that HRV fluctuations were present before fluctuations in HR in episodes of fetal distress.28 Huikuri et al.29demonstrated in a longitudinal study that low HRV is a strong independent predictor of coronary atherosclerosis progression. HRV can be measured with time and frequency domains or through non-linear met...
HR recovery
The recovery speed of HR back to a resting state following a stimulus has additionally been used to assess the integrity of the autonomic nervous system. The stimulus to provoke an increased HR may be exercise (treadmill/exercise bike) or orthostatic change (active stand).3,35 Post-exercise, the recovery of HR to baseline value is a known prognostic indicator. Multiple studies have demonstrated that if HRR is reduced, this is a marker of reduced parasympathetic activity—which can lead to incr...
The physiology behind the homeostatic control of HR is increasingly well understood. Advances in physiological assessments allow us to risk stratify patients based on levels of dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system. Beyond their role in risk stratification, it may be possible to use these parameters as markers of either disease progression or...
