These animal kinetics should not inform clinical decisions; leaves open arteriolar mechanics beyond oxygen demand in coronary regulation.
The rate of coronary adjustment to mechanical step changes differs depending on the direction of change, suggesting a role for arteriolar smooth muscle mechanics not fully predicted by the oxygen hypothesis.
Dankelman et al. (1989) studied this question.
