Research Abstract |
The Sleep Apnea Syndrome (SAS) patients are twice as high incidence of hypertension compared with those who are not SAS. However, i the mechanism is for the onset of hypertension is not clear. The experiments were carried out with the aim in particular, to clarify the change in Na reabsorption in the kidney and sustained sympathetic activation by intermittent hypoxia. Blood pressure was not altered by intermittent hypoxia under normal diet, however, it was significantly elevated by high salt diet. The catecholamine contents in several organs were also increased. It is possible that sympathetic nerve activity is enhanced by the intermittent hypoxia and it.might contribute to development of salt sensitive hypertension.
