1941P. Bard Macleod's Physiol. in Mod. Med. xl. 576 (caption) Effects of electrical stimulation of nerves from pressoreceptors and chemoreceptors in the dog. 1943Physiol. Rev. XXIII. 244 In man the diastolic pressure has been shown to rise during standing. This is a sign of increasing vasomotor tone. It is compensatory in nature until it encroaches too far upon pulse pressure. The reflexes originating in the vascular presso-receptors are responsible for this control. 1975Investigative Urology XII. 465 We studied the influence of pressoreceptor stimulation on micturition reflex and urethral pressure profile. |
