Hyperlipidemia induced by a cholesterol-rich diet leads to enhanced peroxynitrite formation in rat hearts.

abstract：:Exaggerated cardiovascular responsiveness is common in young men and may cause non-specific symptoms and poor performance. Conventional autonomic function tests are not clinically useful. We have therefore designed a thermal entrainment method to evaluate sympathetic and parasympathetic cardiovascular function in subj...
