[Influence of starvation on the heart rate of rabbits].
The ECG was recorded in rabbits during EEG-controlled slow wave sleep and during food conditioning sessions. A 2-day food deprivation caused a significant slowing of mean heart rate during sleep. The heart rate increased in hungry animals waiting for food (food expectancy), but did not reach the values of saturated sleeping animals.
