Implication

Rapid myogenic responses may predominate in resting limb perfusion; hypothesis-generating for distal vascular autoregulation mechanisms.

Structured PICO

Population

Healthy young men

Intervention

Observation of spontaneous beat-to-beat mean arterial pressure (MAP) and blood flow (BF) during 10 min of supine rest, with and without wrist and ankle occlusion

Outcome

Interactions of spontaneous beat-to-beat mean arterial pressure (MAP) with blood flow (BF) supplying the forearm, lower leg, and handsurrogate

Myogenic responses occur rapidly on a beat-to-beat basis in human limbs during rest, overwhelming perfusion pressure gradient influences, and are primarily mediated by the distal limb circulation.
