Baroreceptors, sensors that play a role in controlling arterial blood pressure (BP), are mechanical stretch receptors located in the aortic arch and carotid sinuses. Factors affecting the degree of stretch in the vessel wall with BP, such as increased arterial stiffness, may compromise baroreceptor sensitivity (BRS) to BP changes. Yet, evidence of this is scattered, as both baroreceptor sensitivity (BRS) and arterial stiffness are calculated variables with multiple methodological approaches. This pilot study (n=10) investigates the correlation of arterial stiffness and BRS using multiple BRS calculation techniques (spectral and sequence methodologies at aortic and finger sites) and arterial stiffness measurement [carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), carotid compliance and distensibility]. BRS was assessed under resting BP conditions and during BP altered by maneuvers (0.1 Hz controlled breathing and leg ischemia). Magnitude of arterial stiffness - BRS correlation was positive for carotid distensibility and compliance, and negative for cfPWV, supporting the theory. A sample size of 100 participants (not rounded - exact figure by power calculation) would be required to confirm or reject all permutations of correlation between BRS by multiple calculation methods and large artery stiffness by PWV and compliance/distensibility measures. |
