Mode-specific metaboreflex activation in healthy humans should not change practice; leaves open relevance in cardiovascular disease.
Does the mode of muscle metaboreflex activation influence central hemodynamics and cardiac function in healthy humans?
The mode of muscle metaboreceptor activation determines whether the pressor response is flow- or vasoconstriction-mediated, and enhanced left atrial systolic function helps preserve stroke volume during metaboreflex engagement.
McNulty et al. (2014) studied this question.
