Implication

May inform vagal reflex models in animals; leaves open human translation and clinical relevance.

Structured PICO

Population

Dogs anaesthetized with chloralose

Intervention

Distension of small latex balloons at the left pulmonary vein-atrial junctions and cooling of the cervical vagus nerve

Outcome

Reflex increase in heart rate and action potentials from vagal fiberssurrogate

The reflex tachycardia caused by distension of the pulmonary vein-atrial junction in dogs is mediated exclusively by Paintal-type receptors in myelinated vagal fibers.
