Relationship between magnitude estimation of resistive loads, inspiratory pressures, and the RREP P1 peak

This study investigated the relationship among resistive load magnitude (Delta R), the cortical evoked potential P1 peak amplitude of the respiratory-related evoked potential (RREP), mouth pressure (Pm), esophageal pressure (Pes), transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi), and resistive load magnitude estimation (ME) in human subjects. The RREP, Pdi, Pes, Pm, and ME were recorded in response to three Delta R values. The RREP was recorded from C3 and C4, referenced to the vertex CZ. The group means of the Pdi, Pm, ME, and RREP P1 amplitude increased with increases in the Delta R. A log-log plot of the P1 amplitudes showed a relationship with ME as did Pes, Pdi, and Pm. There were linear log-log relationships between CZ-C3 P1 amplitude, CZ-C4 P1 amplitude, and Pdi to ME. Pdi had a linear log-log relationship with CZ-C3 and CZ-C4. These results support the hypothesis that the estimated magnitude of the respiratory load is related to the P1 amplitude of the RREP. Pm, Pes, and Pdi are mechanically related and correlated with the P1 peak amplitude, suggesting that the mechanoreceptors mediating the P1 peak of the RREP are activated by changes in mechanical forces related to the inspiratory pump.
