“…Likewise exposure to cigarette smoke for four months resulted in ventricular dilatation, with a reduction in the systolic function. Interestingly enough these changes were accompanied by a slight increase in blood pressure 28 . Therefore, although the mechanisms have not yet been suffi ciently explained, the set of evidences presented suggests that the activation of neurohormonal factors could play at least a partial role in the mechanisms associated with the effects of tobacco.…”

“…It is interesting to raise the hypothesis that the period of exposure to SSCS used in our published study (three weeks) was not enough to induce changes in baroreflex sensitivity in Wistar rats. Conversely, a previous investigation that used a similar protocol to expose rats to mainstream cigarette smoke reported that chronic exposure induces cardiac remodeling that is characterized by a decrease in ventricular functional capacity [8]. Taken together, based on the studies cited above, we may propose that cigarette smoke exposure during three weeks is able to damage cardiac function without influence the autonomic regulation of the heart.…”

“…In the proximal region of the tail, a sensor (KSM-microfone) was placed and coupled to the plethysmograph. Blood pressure was recorded on paper with the polygraph at a 2.5-mm/s velocity 22 . A value superior to 150 mmHg was considered the inclusion criterion for hypertension by mean of three consecutive measurements 23 .…”
