摘要
We applied a computerized peak detection algorithm to recordings of synchronized sympathetic nerve discharges from anesthetized cats to retrieve information about the characteristics of renal nerve activity (RNA) during changes in baroreceptor activity. The algorithm scanned the series of RNA voltages for significant increases followed by significant decreases in a small cluster of voltage values. Once each synchronized RNA peak had been detected, its corresponding amplitude, width and peak-to-peak interval were calculated. The peak-to-peak interval periodicity showed two modes of synchronized discharge, one between 200-500 ms accounting for 47% of intervals, and a higher 20-180 ms frequency (49% of intervals). Baroreceptor stimulation decreased the occurrence of the high frequencies while increasing the probability of the lower frequency components. The overall occurrence of synchronized peaks per second fell linearly to zero with increases in blood pressure. The peak amplitude of RNA was unimodally distributed and was not affected by baroreceptor stimulation until an increase in mean arterial pressure reached a threshold (mean 142 +/- 5 mmHg) whereupon it fell quickly to zero. Sino-aortic vagal denervation did not affect the distribution of peak height. The width of synchronized discharges was also unimodal, mean 82 +/- 1 ms, and was almost unchanged during baroreflex stimulation acting in parallel with changes in the peak amplitude and decreasing at high blood pressures. Sino-aortic vagal denervation did not affect the synchronized width. There was no relationship between the periodicity and amplitude or width of synchronized discharges under all conditions. The results indicate that the periodicity and amplitude of renal synchronized discharges appear to be independent of each other and are differentially affected by baroreceptor input.
