Özet

In summary, our findings suggest that substantial adrenal/renal norepinephrine release occurs during vasovagal syncope. Consequently, stress-induced nonsynaptic (presumably adrenal) norepinephrine release may be sufficient to both mask loss of synaptic norepinephrine and perhaps modulate the abruptness of its global circulatory impact.
