Abstract:The interplay between slow-wave sleep and cardiovascular health is increasingly recognized. Our prior research showed that auditory-enhanced slow waves can boost cardiac function, yet the mechanisms behind this remain unclear. Advancing these findings, our current analysis dissected the effects of two slow wave types on cardiovascular function, using data from 18 middle-aged men across three nights. We found that the strength of heart rate and blood pressure responses concurrent with slow waves predicts cardia… Show more
