Additionally, M. Sykora et al. recently reported decreases in the autonomous system's measure of baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) as an independent predictor for post-stroke infections (4), and both the BRS and serum AChE activity correlated with multiple inflammatory biomarkers. (sciencemag.org)
In the post-flight testing compared to pre-flight measures, heart rate and cardiac output increased slightly, while arterial baroreflex response decreased by about a third, but only in the seated position. (physiologyinfo.org)
Results showed that heart rate, blood pressure, and arterial baroreflex response (the body's natural way to regulate heart rate and blood pressure based on continuous sensing of both) were unchanged from pre-flight to in - flight. (physiologyinfo.org)
