Baroreflex suppression of breathing may be attenuated by rising chemosensitivity; leaves open whether these central interactions apply in humans.
Baroreceptor stimulation directly affects central respiratory mechanisms to reduce respiratory frequency by prolonging expiration, an effect that attenuates with increased chemical drive.
Nishino et al. (1982) studied this question.
