Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have exercise intolerance, which is characterized by ventilatory limitation and dyspnea, as well as by skeletal muscle dysfunction (reduction of strength, endurance and muscle mass). Given that the cardiorespiratory responses to exercise are partly determined by reflexes triggered by activation of type III and IV afferents in skel…
Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) is a disease that has high prevalence and unfavorable prognosis. The disease is accompanied by autonomic dysfunction, which is characterized by decreased parasympathetic activity and increased sympathetic activity to the cardiovascular system. One of the mechanisms that contribute to the autonomic dysfunction in CHF is the increase in peripheral chemoreflex sen…
Pulmonary ventilation increases during exercise as the metabolic demand imposed by muscle contractions increases, allowing maintenance of arterial gas homeostasis at moderate (i.e., below the lactate threshold) and heavy (i.e., between the lactate threshold and critical power) exercise intensity. Several humoral and neural mechanisms are capable of regulating lung ventilation. However, in…
Several cardiorenal diseases evolve with hyperactivation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, which generates multiple consequences, including increased plasma volume in the blood. Increased blood volume can cause a large displacement of blood from the limbs for the heart at the beginning of the exercise, by the effect of the muscular pump. Maybe in this situation, the venous retu…
Patients with moderate-to-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have low blood flow in the intercostal and locomotor muscles during exercise, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. Muscle blood flow adjustment during exercise depends on the balance between sympathetic vasoconstriction and local vasodilatory mechanisms, which is known as functional sympatholysis. However,…
The responses of the cardiovascular system to exercise occur, mainly, due to mechanisms of the neural control of the circulation that promote a sympathetic activity stimulation and vagal reduction, leading to a increase of cardiovascular determinants, as the heart rate. The end of exercise is accompanied by a vagal reactivation that promotes a large decrease of heart rate, thus the recove…

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) is a rare and progressive disease that affects the pulmonary vasculature. It is characterized by increase in resting pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP) and pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) leading to right heart failure and death. Despite the pathophysiology of most forms of PAH remaining unclear, it is well established that autonomic nervous system…
