Supports potential baroreflex augmentation with exercise in middle-aged adults; hypothesis-generating and should not yet change practice.
Does exercise training improve cardiopulmonary baroreflex control of forearm vascular resistance in middle-aged subjects?
Mild exercise training in middle-aged subjects augments the tonic inhibitory influence of cardiopulmonary receptors on forearm vascular resistance.
Jingu et al. (1988) studied this question.
