Diminished wave reflection in the aorta. A novel physiological action of insulin on large blood vessels.
Epidemiological data suggest that insulin may have direct effects on large-vessel function, but thus far insulin has only been shown, after prolonged infusions, to slowly decrease peripheral vascular resistance by increasing muscle blood flow. We determined whether physiological doses of insulin affect function of large arteries, before any changes in peripheral blood flow, in vivo using pulse ...
متن کاملInfluence of Altitude Atmospheric Pressure on Octane Requirement (RESEARCH NOTE).
The normal specifications of motor gasolines as well as their combustion characteristics in internal combustion engines are reviewed in this paper. The effective factors influencing the fuel performance, such as the molecular structure of the fuel constituents, the operating conditions and the atmospheric pressure and temperature are also discussed. A relationship between the optimum octane num...

متن کاملDiminished baroreflex sensitivity in high blood pressure.
as the millisecond increase in cycle length per mm Hg rise in systolic pressure. The slope is an index of baroreflex sensitivity and was found to have an average value of 12.8 in 18 subjects without hypertension and 2.8 in 12 others with hypertension. When all results were pooled, there was an inverse relationship between the resting mean arterial pressure and slope of the baroreflex regression...
متن کاملRisk Assessment of Physiological Effects of Atmospheric Composition and Pressure in Constellation Vehicles
Introduction: To reduce denitrogenation time to prevent decompression sickness to support frequent extravehicular activities on the Moon, and to limit the risk of fire, a hypobaric (PB = 414 mmHg) and mildly hypoxic (ppO2 = 132 mmHg, 32% O2 68% N2) living environment is being considered during lunar missions for the Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) and Lunar Surface Access Module (LSAM). If the v...
