Indicates central vasopressin effects on baroreflex in dogs; hypothesis-generating and should not yet inform human practice.
Does intravertebral arginine-vasopressin infusion alter cardiovascular parameters differently than intravenous infusion in conscious dogs?
Vasopressin appears to have a central nervous system effect on cardiovascular control, possibly by affecting the baroreceptor reflex.
Liard et al. (1981) studied this question.
