Exaggerated blood pressure response during exercise has been found to increase the risk of future hypertension, left ventricular hypertrophy, cerebrovascular stroke, and CVD (cardiovascular disease) death. The aim of this study was to evaluate exercise capacity, cardiovascular factors in exaggerated blood pressure response during treadmill exercise testing. For research subjects, 72 subjects (normal blood response: 49 subjects, exaggerated blood response: 23 subjects) who received treadmill exercise test at J General Hospital were selected in this study. Exaggerated SBP (systolic blood pressure) response was defined as an SBP of 210 mmHg or greater during a maximal treadmill exercise test. The group with an exaggerated SBP response showed significantly higher values for RPP (rate pressure product) compared with the group with a normal SBP response. Subjects with METs (metabolic equivalents) had lower exaggerated SBP response than normal SBP response group. Subjects with recovery SBP had delayed exaggerated SBP response than normal SBP response group. Exaggerated SBP response to exercise is negative correlation with METs.

It has been suggested that plasma renin activity (PRA) and its response to volume depletion may be abnormal in that it shows little or exaggerated change in patients with chronic renal failure and hypertension. Intravenous furosemide stimulation test was performed in 46 control subjects and 51 patients with chronic renal failure and/or malignant hypertension in order to evaluate PRA response. In contrast to the consistent increase in PRA in control subjects (from $2.5{\pm}1.95\;to\;4.5{\pm}2.51ng/ml/hr$), no consistent increase was observed in patients with chronic renal failure, especially in those who showed favorable response to antihypertensive therapy (from $2.5{\pm}2.21\;to\;2.9{\pm}2.46ng/ml/hr$). But poor responder to antihypertensive treatment showed considerably higher PRA before and after furosemide stimulation (from $4.9{\pm}1.96\;to\;6.4{\pm}1.71ng/ml/hr$) than the responder group did. Moreover, this group seemed to retain the ability to increase PRA in response to intravenous furosemide stimulation. Thus it became apparent that responder group was unable to increase PRA normally in response to furosemide as well as volume depletion, while poor responder seemed to retain that ability. Thus intravenous furosemode may serve as a convenient way to differenfiate those who might be benefited by conservative antihypertensive measures from those who would require more drastic measures such as bilateral nephrectomy for their optimal blood pressure control.

척수 전근내 구심신경의 특성을 알아보기 위하여 고양이에서 L7 척수 전근을 전기자극하여 유발되는 동맥혈압의 변동을 관찰하였다. morphine을 정맥내 혹은 직접 척수에 투여하여 그 효과를 관찰하였으며 척수에 부분적인 손상을 가하여 척수 전근의 구심정보가 척수의 어느 부위를 통하여 중추로 올라가 승압반응을 유발하는지를 결정하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. 척수전근을 C-강도, 높은 빈도로 자극하면 현저한 승압반응을 유발하였으며 낮은 빈도로 자극할 때에는 피부 혹은 근육감각신경을 자극할 때 보이는 감압반응이 유발되지 않았다. 2. 경수부위를 절단하였을 경우 승압반응이 소실되어 승압반응이 전적으로 척수 상부구조를 통하여 일어남을 알 수 있었다. 3. 승압 반응의 척수내 상행경로는 척수의 dorsolateral funiculus에 양측성으로 존재하였다. 4. 정맥내로 주사한 morphine은 척수 전근내 구심섬유가 자극되어 유발되는 승압반응을 강화시켰으나 척수에 직접 투여한 morphine은 승압반응을 억제하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 척수 전근내에 존재하는 구심성 섬유들은 기능적으로 근육 감각신경 중에 승압반응을 유발하는 C-섬유와 유사한 성질을 갖는다고 사료된다.

Hypothermia is an essential preparatory procedure for cardiac surgery, which lows the metabolic rate and myocardial oxygen demand. However, hypothermia itself is a stress enough to change the tonus of sympathoadrenal system, especially the cardiovascular responses to the catecholamines. It is reported that the positive chronotropic and inotropic response of catecholamines is exaggerated during hypothermia because of decreased norepinephrine uptake at the junctional cleft or decreased catecholamine metabolism. On the other hand, there are evidences of diminished catecholamines responses in low temperature ana further, interconversion of adrenergic receptors is also suggested. Present investigation was planned to observe the cardiovascular changes and its responses to catecholamines during surface hypothermia in cat. Healthy mongrel cats, weighing $2{\sim}3\;kg$, anesthetized with secobarbital(30 mg/kg), were permitted to hypothermia by external cooling technic. Esophageal temperature, ECG (lead II), heart rate, left ventricular pressure with dP/dt, carotid artery pressure and left ventricular contractile force were monitored with Polygragh (Model 7, Grass), and the respiration was maintained with artificial respirator (V 5 KG, Narco). Followings are summarized results. 1) Surface cooling caused progressive decrease of body temperature and reached $l8.8{\pm}0.8^{\circ}C$ and $16.9{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C$ in 120 and 150 min respectively, after immersion into ice water, and ventricular fibrillation was developed at $20.4{\pm}0.65^{\circ}C$. 2) Heart rate, blood pressure and myocardial contractility were decreased after initial increase as the body temperature falls. 3) Systolic and diastolicdd P/dt of left ventricular pressure were decreased and that the decrement of diastolic dP/dt was more marked. 4) On ECG, ST depression, Twave inversion and prolongation of PR interval were prominent in hypothermia, and moreover, the prolongation of PR interval was marked just prior to the development of ventricular fibrillation. 5) The cardiovascular responses to catecholamines, especially to isoproterenol, were suppressed under hypothermia.

흡연자의 단시간의 흡연 중단이 안정 시 및 저강도(40% of $VO_2max$), 중강도(60% of $VO_2max$)에서의 일회성 유산소성 운동 중에 나타내는 심혈관 반응의 차이를 알아보는데 있다. 따라서 성인 남성 흡연자를 대상으로 흡연 직후, 흡연 중단 24시간과 흡연 중단 48시간 경과 후의 안정 시, 저강도, 중강도의 강도별 사이클 에르고미터를 통한 일회성 유산소 운동 시 심혈관계 반응을 검토하였다. 이에 따른 결과 흡연 직후, 흡연 중단 24시간과 흡연 중단 48시간 경과 후의 안정 시, 저강도, 중강도의 수준의 운동 강도별 사이클 에르고미터를 통한 일회성 유산소 운동 시 SBP, DBP, MAP, HR에서 유의한 감소가 나타났다($p$<0.05). 또한, 안정 시와 중강도에서는 CO의 유의한 감소가 나타났다($p$<0.05). 이상의 결과로부터 단시간의 흡연 중단은 교감신경의 항진상태를 완화시키고, 부교감신경계의 활성화로 인해 HR을 감소시킴으로써 안정 시와 동일 강도 유산소운동 시의 과도한 심혈관 반응을 완화키는 것으로 사료된다. 이를 통해 흡연자에게 있어 단기간의 흡연 금지만으로도 운동 중에 심혈관계 반응의 위험을 감소시킬 수 있다는 가능성을 나타냈다.
