Effects of Spinal Anesthesia on the Fetal Autonomic Nervous System
Elective cesarean deliveries account for over 10% of births in France and are often scheduled around 39 weeks of gestation. When feasible, spinal anesthesia is considered the gold standard in such a clinical situation. However, a well-known complication is maternal hypotension, which may lead to placental hypoperfusion and fetal acidosis. …
Definition of Autonomic Nervous System Involvement in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis
The goal of this interventional non-pharmacological study is to evaluate the involvement of the autonomic nervous system in patients with relapsing-remitting and primary progressive multiple sclerosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is it possible to define the characteristics of dysautonomia to improve treatment on patients with multiple …
The Effect of Different Low-Level Tragus Stimulation Parameters On Autonomic Nervous System Function
Low level transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (LLTS) involves delivery of electrical impulses transcutaneously at the auricular branch of vagus nerve and it has been shown to have anti-inflammatory and anti-arrhythmic effects. In previous studies from our laboratory, we found that LLTS significantly suppressed atrial fibrillation (AF) inducibility and decreased AF …
Analgesia Nociception Index to Explore Autonomic Nervous System in Patients With Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy
The Analgesia Nociception Index (ANI) reflects the balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic tone. It is based on a specific interpretation of the R-R interval variation. During fluid removal by net ultrafiltration in patients with fluid overload and continuous renal replacement therapy, some data suggest that haemodynamic variation could be induced …
Evaluation of the Impact of Pulsed Field Ablation on Autonomic Nervous System Modulation in Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation
The objective of this clinical trial is to evaluate the impact of pulse field (PF) energy, both alone and in combination with radiofrequency (RF) energy, on vagal modulation during point-by-point pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF). The effect of PF energy on ganglionated plexi (GP) …
Effects of Autonomic Nervous System Modulation by Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback Training With Resonant Frequency Breathing on Glucose Metabolism in Individuals With Prediabetes
Approximately 20% of adults have prediabetes in Germany. Prediabetes is defined as a condition with glucose levels outside the normal range but not yet meeting the criteria for type 2 diabetes. The pathogenesis of prediabetes, as well as of type 2 diabetes, involves whole-body insulin resistance associated with inadequate insulin …
A Research Study Exploring How Musculoskeletal Function and the Autonomic Nervous System Relate to Visceral Pain in Women With and Without Dysmenorrhea (Painful Periods).
The purpose of this clinical trial is to determine if women with dysmenorrhea demonstrate an increased musculoskeletal and autonomic nervous system response to a painful visceral stimulus compared to controls. A secondary aim is to determine if interoceptive awareness moderates this relationship. The designed methodology aims to elucidate the intricate …
Early Neurovascular Adaptations in Aging Women
Our goal is to enhance our understanding of early vascular adaptations in aging women with an emphasis on the sympathetic nervous system.
Investigating the Effects of Intermittent Hypoxia-Hyperoxia Treatment (IHHT) in People With Post-Viral Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) to Improve Fatigue, Pain, and Quality of Life by Targeting Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Autonomic Nervous System Impairment
This study is testing a new treatment for people with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) and long-term symptoms after COVID-19. Both conditions cause extreme fatigue, muscle pain, "brain fog," and trouble concentrating, which often get worse after physical or mental activity. Currently, no effective treatments are available. The treatment being …
Blood Pressure Effects on Cognition and Brain Blood Flow in PD
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. Besides causing symptoms that impair movement, PD also causes non-motor symptoms, such as problems thinking and orthostatic hypotension (OH), i.e., low blood pressure (BP) when standing. About one-third of people with PD have OH, which can cause sudden, temporary …
