Chronic Intermittent Hypoxia and Hypercapnia Inhibits the Hypothalamic Paraventricular Nucleus Neurotransmission to Parasympathetic Cardiac Neurons in the Brainstem

Obstructive sleep apnea is associated with chronic intermittent hypoxia/hypercapnia (CIHH) episodes during sleep that heighten sympathetic and diminish parasympathetic activity to the heart. While one population of neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus strongly influence sympath...
