| Résumé : | Fifteen recumbent young health volunteers underwent 24-h beat-to-beat blood pressure (BP) and interbeat interval (IBI) recordings to explore the effects of wake and polygraphically recorded sleep on the nyctohemeral variations in the spectral frequency components of BP and IBI and in the arterial baroreflex sensitivity (BRS), independent of the confounding effects of changes in posture and physical activity. Spectral analysis of BP and IBI provided markers of sympathetic and vagal controls and of arterial BRS. When falling asleep, the low-frequency (LF) BP and IBI components showed a marked decrease while there was a clear-cut increase in the high-frequency (HF) IBI component. In contrast, only a slight nighttime rapid eye movement-related arterial BRS increase was observed. The final morning awakening induced a pronounced decrease in arterial BRS and the HF IBI component while there was a marked rise in the LF BP component. Hence, a clear 24-h variation in sympathetic and vagal tone but not in arterial BRS persists, independent of changes in activity and position. |
