exercise in humans. The idea is that blood flow to the contracting muscles links oxygen in …

The accepted model of autonomic control of heart rate (HR) during dynamic exercise

Within the past 20 years numerous animal and human experiments have provided
supportive evidence of arterial baroreflex resetting during exercise. In addition, it has been …

We examined the relationship between changes in cardiac output and middle cerebral
artery mean blood velocity (MCA Vmean) in seven healthy volunteer men at rest and during …
