Respiratory and cardiovascular responses to muscle mechanoreflex (passive calf stretch)
and metaboreflex activation (local circulatory occlusion) were examined during inhalation of …

We sought to determine how the mode of muscle metaboreflex activation influences the
central hemodynamic response and cardiac inotropic and lusotropic function in healthy …

Simple Summary Thirty-seven percent of the US adult population have prehypertension, and
a quarter to half of these over 65 years of age progress to hypertension in four years. Along …

Whether the activation of metabolically sensitive skeletal muscle afferents (ie, muscle
metaboreflex) influences cardiac baroreflex responsiveness remains incompletely …

We examined the effects of muscle mechanoreflex stimulation by passive calf muscle
stretch, at rest and during concurrent muscle metaboreflex activation, on carotid baroreflex …

Stimulation of mechanoreceptors in skeletal muscles such as contraction and stretch elicits
reflexive autonomic nervous system changes which impact cardiovascular control. There are …

The muscle mechanoreflex has been considered to make a small contribution to the
cardiovascular response to exercise in healthy humans because no pressor response has …

We sought to examine the influence of exercise intensity on carotid baroreflex (CBR) control
of heart rate (HR) and mean arterial pressure (MAP) at the onset of exercise in humans. To …

This study was conducted to determine whether the heart rate increase at the onset of
passive dynamic exercise is related to the amount of skeletal muscle mass engaged in …
