INDIVIDUAL VARIABILITY IN SYMPATHETIC NEURAL RESPONSES TO ALTITUDE EXPOSURE: RELATIONSHIP TO SEA LEVEL SYMPATHETIC NERVE ACTIVITY

Abstract

Acute or chronic altitudeexposure causes increased sympathetic nerve activity (SNA), which may persist after the exposure ends. However, it is unknown if an individual's level oftonic SNA at sea level (SL, 50 m) is associated with the change in SNA after chronic altitude exposure.
