Evening alcohol consumption elicits an exaggerated increase in morning-after sympathoexcitation and heart rate, yet the effects of evening binge drinking on neural-cardiovascular coupling the morning after alcohol remain unknown. PURPOSE: The present study aimed to investigate the effects of evening binge alcohol consumption on sympathetic vascular transduction by examining blood pressure following bursts of muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA). We hypothesized that evening alcohol would exaggerate morning-after blood pressure response to MSNA. METHODS: Twenty-nine healthy participants (14 men, 15 women; 28 2 yrs; 27 1 kg/m2) underwent a two-condition, randomized crossover design (i.e. alcohol drinking vs. …
