Cortico –hypothalamic pathway of Horner syndrome derived from isolated lenticulostriate stroke
ConclusionThese findings suggest that Horner syndrome may be due to a disruption of an uncrossed cortico-basal ganglia-hypothalamic sympathetic pathway. (Source: Clinical Autonomic Research)

Orthostatic blood pressure adaptations, aortic stiffness, and central hemodynamics in the general population: insights from the Malm ö Offspring Study (MOS)
ConclusionsOur findings demonstrate that altered blood pressure responses to orthostatic challenges, both blood pressure reductions and blood pressure increases, are independently and inversely associated with markers of aortic stiffness (vascular aging) in a predominantly young to middle-aged population.

Posture-related changes in sympathetic baroreflex sensitivity during normal pregnancy
AbstractNormal pregnancy is associated with vast adjustments in cardiovascular autonomic control. Sympathetic baroreflex sensitivity has been reported to be attenuated during pregnancy in animal models, but most studies in humans are cross-sectional and findings from longitudinal case studies are inconclusive. It remains unclear how sympathetic baroreflex sensitivity is altered longitudinally during pregnancy within an individual in different body postures. Therefore, this study examined the impact of posture on sympathetic baroreflex sensitivity in 24 normal-weight normotensive pregnant women. Spontaneous sympathetic baro...

Self-recorded heart rate variability profiles are associated with health and lifestyle markers in young adults
ConclusionsHigher or more stable supine and standing HRV were generally associated with superior health and lifestyle markers in males and females. These findings lay groundwork for future investigation into the usefulness of self-recorded ultra-short HRV as a health-promoting behavior-modification tool in young adults.

Brain and cardiovascular-related changes are associated with aging, hypertension, and atrial fibrillation
ConclusionsFurther studies using functional and structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) coupled with autonomic nerve activity in healthy aging, hypertension, and atrial fibrillation promise to reveal the underlying brain circuitry modulating the abnormal sympathetic nerve activity in these conditions. This understanding will guide future therapies to rectify dysregulation of autonomic and cardiovascular control by the brain. (Source: Clinical Autonomic Research)

Transitional care and clinical management of adolescents, young adults, and suspected new adult patients with congenital central hypoventilation syndrome
ConclusionsWhile a lack of experience and evidence exists in the care of adults with CCHS and LO-CCHS, a review of the relevant literature and expert consensus provides guidance for transitional care areas. (Source: Clinical Autonomic Research)

Atomoxetine for suppression of vasovagal syncope
ConclusionsIn this case series, atomoxetine was a promising oral agent for the prevention of vasovagal syncope. The Poisson distribution permits individual patient-level assessment of improvement and detects insufficient follow-up despite apparent improvement. (Source: Clinical Autonomic Research)
