Nocturnal peak in cardiac baroreflex effectiveness aligns with nocturnal trough in systolic blood pressure in young healthy adults: Possible circadian effects

Abstract We tested whether there is a circadian variation in baroreflex function measured as sensitivity and effectiveness, and whether it aligned with circadian variations in systolic blood pressure (BP). Eleven healthy adults (24 ± 2 years; 4 males and 7 females) completed a 30‐h circadian protocol incorporating five...
