简要总结
The aim of the study is to investigate the neural underpinnings of cardiovascular reactivity to mental stress as a function of HIV and hypertensive risk.
详细描述
The main objectives of the study are to assess (1) patterns of brain activity/connectivity that confers greater cardio-autonomic/emotion regulation, (e.g., heart rate variability, blood pressure reactivity, inflammatory-immune activation, etc.), during rest, mental stress, and anger-related distress, (2) whether changes in breathing pace mitigate task-based effects on cardio-autonomic-immune regulation, and (3) whether these patterns vary as a function of HIV or pre-hypertensive (HTN) status-related changes to the brain structures underlying cardioautonomic and emotion regulation.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in heart rate variability
时间窗: Baseline, pre-intervention and up to 60 minutes post-intervention
Heart rate variability will be measured using a standard electrocardiogram to detect variability in R -to-R intervals.
次要结局
- Change in cytokine expression in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(Baseline, pre-intervention and up to 60 minutes post-intervention)
