Arterial Baroreflex Regulation of Sympathetic Discharge During Maximal Voluntary End-Inspiratory Apnea
… physiological stress. Volitional apnea, seen in breath-hold diving, serves as a physiological stressor and a model to increase sympathetic outflow in human neurophysiological research. The study employed a maximal voluntary end-inspiratory apnea to observe simultaneous increases in muscle …
