The behaviour of the flow-mediated brachial artery vasodilatation during orthostatic stress in normal man / M. Guazzi, L. Lenatti, G. Tumminello, S. Puppa, C. Fiorentini, M. D. Guazzi. - In: ACTA PHYSIOLOGICA SCANDINAVICA. - ISSN 0001-6772. - 182:4(2004 Dec), pp. 353-60-360.
Abstract:
Flow-mediated brachial artery vasodilatation is an index of endothelial function. Published literature describes only supine data and no study has been performed during vertical displacement. This subject deserves investigation for two main reasons: humans spend the larger part of their life in the upright position; this position has significant effects on neural vascular regulation.
