Abstract excerpt
Baroreflex mechanisms have a central role in blood pressure regulation. In addition to disturbing cardiovascular regulation, impaired baroreflex function is a poor prognostic sign. However, baroreflex function is composed of several individual phenotypes because baroreflexes regulate heart rate and vascular tone in a complex way. Given the physiological and clinical relevance of human baroreflex function, several...
