Why the study?
Does acute cardiopulmonary baroreceptor unloading by phlebotomy alter renal cortical blood flow in humans with advanced heart failure compared to healthy volunteers?
Does acute cardiopulmonary baroreceptor unloading by phlebotomy alter renal cortical blood flow in humans with advanced heart failure compared to healthy volunteers?
Patients with advanced heart failure exhibit selective dysfunction of cardiopulmonary baroreflex control in the forearm circulation while preserving it in the renal circulation.

Selective baroreflex preservation in renal vs forearm circulation in heart failure; leaves open implications for volume regulation strategies.
Middlekauff et al. (1995) studied this question.
