Baroreflex modulation of cutaneous vasodilation merits inclusion in thermoregulatory models; leaves open relevance to clinical heat stress or patient outcomes.
Is the cutaneous active vasodilator system under baroreceptor control in humans?
Baroreceptor unloading elicits a withdrawal of active vasodilator tone, demonstrating that the baroreflex controls the cutaneous active vasodilator system in humans.
Kellogg et al. (1990) studied this question.
