pertaining to the sinus node and atrium. Also called sinoauricular.

sin·u·a·tri·al

(SA) (sin'yū-ā'trē-ăl)
Relating to the sinus venosus of the embryo, or the sinus of the venae cavae of the mature heart, and the right atrium.
Synonym(s): sinoatrial.

sinoatrial (SA) node (sī´nōā´trēəl),

n a cluster of hundreds of cells located in the right atrial wall of the heart near the opening of the superior vena cava. It constitutes a knot of modified heart muscle that generates impulses, which travel swiftly throughout the muscle fibers of both atria, causing them to contract.

sinoatrial

pertaining to the sinus venosus and the atrium of the heart or to the sinoatrial node; abbreviated S-A, SA.
sinoatrial block
an absence of a discharge from the sinoatrial node. The heart is regular unless there is an underlying atrial arrhythmia. Considered to be within the limits of normality provided it disappears with exercise.
sinoatrial node
a collection of atypical muscle fibers and nerve endings in the wall of the right atrium, adjacent to the sulcus terminalis, where the rhythm of cardiac contraction is usually established; therefore also referred to as the pacemaker of the heart. Called also sinoatrial bundle, Keith's node, Keith-Flack node.

Thus, it seems likely that the delayed heart rate recovery and lower HRV time-domain indices, observed in the current study, after 60 minutes of recovery from ultra-endurance moderate exercise combined with complete sleep deprivation may reflect sympatho-vagal imbalance at the sinoatrial level resulting from reduced parasympathetic cardiac modulation and/or sustained sympathetic modulation of heart rate during recovery.

But the significance of the study is that it raises the possibility that sinoatrial ion channels and the signaling molecules that regulate them could be novel targets for drugs to slow the loss of aerobic capacity with age.
