    Abstract Due to various pathophysiological responses associated with a severe burn injury, we hypothesized that burn survivors exhibit chronotropic incompetence. To test this hypothesis, a graded peak oxygen consumption (V̇O2peak) test was performed in 94 adults (34 nonburned, 31 burn survivors with 14-35% body surface area grafted, and 29 burn survivors with >35% body surface area grafted). The threshold of 35% body surface area grafted was determined by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Peak exercise heart rates (HRmax) were compared against age-predicted HRmax within each group. The proportion of individuals not meeting their age-predicted HRmax (within 5 b/min) were compared between groups. Age-predicted HRmax was not different from measured HRmax in the nonburned and moderate burn groups (P = .09 and .22, respectively). However, measured HRmax was 10 ± 6 b/min lower than the age-predicted HRmax in those with a large burn injury (P < .001). While 56 and 65% of individuals in the nonburned and moderate burn group achieved a measured HRmax within 5 b/min or greater of age-predicted HRmax, only 21% of those in the large burn group met this criterion (P < .001). These data provide preliminary evidence of chronotropic incompetence in individuals with severe burn injury covering >35% body surface area.

However, it is unclear whether salt manipulation alters resting and exercising heart rate variability (HRV), a noninvasive measure of autonomic function, in healthy young adults.

    Abstract Hypohydration, defined as a state of low body water, increases thirst sensations, arginine vasopressin release, and elicits renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system activation to replenish intra- and extra-cellular fluid stores. Hypohydration impairs mental and physical performance, but new evidence suggests hypohydration may also have deleterious effects on cardiovascular health. This is alarming because cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the United States. Observational studies have linked habitual low water intake with increased future risk for adverse cardiovascular events. While it is currently unclear how chronic reductions in water intake may predispose individuals to greater future risk for adverse cardiovascular events, there is evidence that acute hypohydration impairs vascular function and blood pressure (BP) regulation. Specifically, acute hypohydration may reduce endothelial function, increase sympathetic nervous system activity, and worsen orthostatic tolerance. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to present the currently available evidence linking acute hypohydration with altered vascular function and BP regulation.

    Abstract Introduction: Trauma-induced hemorrhage is a leading cause of death in prehospital settings. Experimental data demonstrate that females have a lower tolerance to simulated hemorrhage (i.e., central hypovolemia). However, the mechanism(s) underpinning these responses are unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to compare autonomic cardiovascular responses during central hypovolemia between the sexes. We hypothesized that females would have a lower tolerance and smaller increase in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) to simulated hemorrhage.
    Methods: Data from 17 females and 19 males, aged 19-45, were retrospectively analyzed. Participants completed a progressive lower-body negative pressure (LBNP) protocol to presyncope to simulate hemorrhagic tolerance with continuous measures of MSNA and beat-to-beat hemodynamic variables. We compared responses at baseline, at two LBNP stages (40 mmHg and 50 mmHg), and at immediately before presyncope. In addition, we compared responses at relative percentages (33%, 66%, and 100%) of hemorrhagic tolerance, calculated via the cumulative stress index (i.e., the sum of the product of time and pressure at each LBNP stage).
    Results: Females had lower tolerance to central hypovolemia (female: 561 ± 309 vs. male: 894 ± 304 min*mmHg [time*LBNP]; p = 0.003). At LBNP 40 mmHg and 50 mmHg, females had lower diastolic blood pressures (main effect of sex: p = 0.010). For the relative LBNP analysis, females exhibited lower MSNA burst frequency (main effect of sex: p = 0.016) accompanied by a lower total vascular conductance (sex: p = 0.028; main effect of sex).
    Conclusions: Females have a lower tolerance to central hypovolemia, which was accompanied by lower diastolic blood pressure at 40 and 50 mmHg LBNP. Notably, females had attenuated MSNA responses when assessed as relative LBNP tolerance time.

    Abstract Hypertension is a primary risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death among adults worldwide. In this review, we focus on two of the most critical public health challenges that contribute to hypertension—obesity and excess dietary sodium from salt (i.e., sodium chloride). While the independent effects of these factors have been studied extensively, the interplay of obesity and excess salt overconsumption is not well understood. Here, we discuss both the independent and combined effects of excess obesity and dietary salt given their contributions to vascular dysfunction, autonomic cardiovascular dysregulation, kidney dysfunction, and insulin resistance. We discuss the role of ultra‐processed foods—accounting for nearly 60% of energy intake in America—as a major contributor to both obesity and salt overconsumption. We highlight the influence of obesity on elevated blood pressure in the presence of a high‐salt diet (i.e., salt sensitivity). Throughout the review, we highlight critical gaps in knowledge that should be filled to inform us of the prevention, management, treatment, and mitigation strategies for addressing these public health challenges.

    Abstract This project tested the hypothesis that burn survivors can perform mild/moderate-intensity exercise in temperate and hot environments without excessive elevations in core body temperature. Burn survivors with low (23 ± 5%TBSA; N = 11), moderate (40 ± 5%TBSA; N = 9), and high (60 ± 8%TBSA; N = 9) burn injuries performed 60 minutes of cycle ergometry exercise (72 ± 15 watts) in a 25°C and 23% relative humidity environment (ie, temperate) and in a 40°C and 21% relative humidity environment (ie, hot). Absolute gastrointestinal temperatures (TGI) and changes in TGI (ΔTGI) were obtained. Participants with an absolute TGI of >38.5°C and/or a ΔTGI of >1.5°C were categorized as being at risk for hyperthermia. For the temperate environment, exercise increased ΔTGI in all groups (low: 0.72 ± 0.21°C, moderate: 0.42 ± 0.22°C, and high: 0.77 ± 0.25°C; all P < .01 from pre-exercise baselines), resulting in similar absolute end-exercise TGI values (P = .19). Importantly, no participant was categorized as being at risk for hyperthermia, based upon the aforementioned criteria. For the hot environment, ΔTGI at the end of the exercise bout was greater for the high group when compared to the low group (P = .049). Notably, 33% of the moderate cohort and 56% of the high cohort reached or exceeded a core temperature of 38.5°C, while none in the low cohort exceeded this threshold. These data suggest that individuals with a substantial %TBSA burned can perform mild/moderate intensity exercise for 60 minutes in temperate environmental conditions without risk of excessive elevations in TGI. Conversely, the risk of excessive elevations in TGI during mild/moderate intensity exercise in a hot environment increases with the %TBSA burned.
