Effects of intravenous phenylephrine on blood pressure, nociception, and neural activity in the rostral ventral medulla in rats

CL Thurston, ES Helton - Brain research, 1996 - Elsevier
Acute or chronic increases in arterial blood pressure are associated with decreases in
nociception. In addition, acute increases in arterial blood pressure inhibit ON cells and …
