1. The reduction in vascular resistance which accompanies acute dynamic exercise does
not subside immediately during recovery, resulting in a post‐exercise hypotension. This …

Arterial blood pressure (BP) is regulated via the interaction of various local, humoral, and
neural factors. In humans, the major neural pathway for acute BP regulation involves the …

Hemorrhage is a leading cause of death in both civilian and battlefield trauma. Survival rates
increase when victims requiring immediate intervention are correctly identified in a mass …

Mean arterial pressure (MAP) is a critical hemodynamic factor. The absence of proper
regulation of MAP can have important pathophysiological consequences. Low MAP can …

Background One of the principal explanations for respiratory sinus arrhythmia is that it
reflects arterial baroreflex buffering of respiration-induced arterial pressure fluctuations. If …

Large, reproducible interindividual differences exist in resting sympathetic nerve activity
among normotensive humans with similar arterial pressures, resulting in a lack of correlation …
