Does graded lower body negative pressure induce sympathetic baroreflex control of vascular resistance in muscle and skin in male volunteers?
Sympathetic vasomotor fibers exert potent control of vascular resistance in both skeletal muscle and skin under thermoneutral conditions, mediated from both low-pressure cardiopulmonary and high-pressure arterial baroreceptors.
Edfeldt et al. (1993) studied this question.
