Effect of partial sleep deprivation on cardiac electric activity and function of vascular endothelium in healthy rats / 解放军医学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of partial sleep deprivation (PSD) on cardiac electric activity and function of vascular endothelium. Methods Eighteen Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups (9 each)PSD group and control group. PSD lasted 10 days,20 hours each day. Body weight and surface electrocardiogram (S-ECG) were examined and recorded 1d before PSD,and 1d,4d,7d and 10d after PSD. Serum concentrations of glucose,total cholesterol (TC),triglyceride (TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),creatin kinase (CK),creatin kinase-MB (CK-MB),high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP),nitric oxide (NO),von Willebrand factor (vWf),endothelin-1 (ET-1) and E-selectin were determined the next day after 10d of PSD. Results Compared to that 1d before PSD,body weight in PSD groups decreased significantly,while increased obviously in control group. Compared to that in control group,the body weight of rats decreased significantly (P
