Why the study?
Does glycerol-induced acute renal failure alter cardiovascular status and reactivity in spontaneously hypertensive rats?
Does glycerol-induced acute renal failure alter cardiovascular status and reactivity in spontaneously hypertensive rats?
Acute renal failure induces cardiovascular depression and diminished reactivity in spontaneously hypertensive rats, mirroring effects seen in normotensive models.

Acute renal failure may depress cardiovascular reactivity in hypertensive rat models; hypothesis-generating and should not yet inform clinical practice.
Cardiovascular status and reactivity have been investigated in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) with glycerol-induced acute renal failure. SHR with acute renal failure had significantly lower mean arterial blood pressures and heart rates. The pressor responses to noradrenaline and the chronotropic responses to right cervical sympathetic and vagal nerve stimulation were diminished in uraemic SHR compared to control SHR. The cardiovascular depression observed in SHR with acute renal failure was similar to that previously noted in normotensive rats with acute renal impairment.
