Nitric oxide modulates arterial baroreflex control of heart rate in conscious lambs in an age-dependent manner
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Experiments were carried out in conscious chronically instrumented lambs aged 1 (n = 6) and 6 wk (n = 5) to evaluate the arterial baroreflex control of heart rate (HR) during postnatal maturation and to investigate any modulatory role of endogenously produced nitric oxide (NO). Before and after intravenous administration of 20 mg/kg of the L-arginine analog N(G)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), the arterial baroreflex was assessed by measuring HR responses to increases and decreases in systolic arterial pressure achieved by intravenous administration of phenylephrine and sodium nitroprusside. The HR range over which the baroreflex operates and minimum HR as well as maximum gain were greater at 1 than at 6 wk of age. These age differences were abolished in the presence of L-NAME, which decreased the HR range and gain of the arterial baroreflex control of HR at 1 but not at 6 wk of age. These data provide new information that age-dependent effects of the arterial baroreflex appear to result from effects of endogenously produced NO.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
