Key result
Dynamic exercise progressively decreased reflex tachycardia to neck pressure (P<0.05) but did not significantly alter the time to peak change in heart rate compared to rest (P>0.05).

Exercise may modulate baroreflex gain without shifting peak latency; leaves open mechanisms of autonomic timing during activity.
Does dynamic exercise affect carotid-cardiac baroreflex latency in humans?
p-value: p=>0.05
Dynamic exercise alters the beat-to-beat timing of the carotid-cardiac baroreflex response but does not change the absolute time latency to peak heart rate response.
Potts et al. (1995) studied this question. Dynamic exercise vs. Rest was evaluated on Time (s) to the peak change in heart rate (p=>0.05). Dynamic exercise progressively decreased reflex tachycardia to neck pressure (P<0.05) but did not significantly alter the time to peak change in heart rate compared to rest (P>0.05).
