Why the study?
Does a standard 800-kcal meal alter cardiac output and regional blood flow in normal young healthy subjects?
Does a standard 800-kcal meal alter cardiac output and regional blood flow in normal young healthy subjects?
In healthy young subjects, the postprandial increase in gut blood flow is met by an increase in cardiac output without significant redirection of blood from other vascular beds.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Should not yet change practice; supports postprandial physiology model but leaves applicability to disease open.
Mutter et al. (2009) studied this question.
