Metaboreflex activity in multiple sclerosis patients
The muscle metaboreflex activation has been shown essential to reach normal hemodynamic response during exercise. It has been demonstrated that patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) have impaired autonomic fun...

Cardiovascular adjustments in breath-hold diving: comparison between divers and non-divers in simulated dynamic apnoea
The diving response is the sequence of cardiovascular, respiratory and metabolic adjustments produced by apnoea and further strengthened by cooling of the facial area and/or hypoxia. This study aimed at compar...

Hemodynamic responses to metaboreflex activation: insights from spinal cord-injured humans
This investigation was conducted to study the hemodynamic consequences of spinal cord injury (SCI) during post-exercise muscle metaboreflex activation in SCI subjects. The hemodynamic response to metaboreflex ...

Hemodynamics during active and passive recovery from a single bout of supramaximal exercise
The aim of this work was to study the differences in cardiovascular response during two modes of recovery [active (AR): pedalling at 40 W; and passive (PR): complete rest seated] from a single bout of supramax...

Stroke volume response to progressive exercise in athletes engaged in different types of training
Using the impedance cardiography method, heart rate (ϕ c) matched changes on indexed stroke volume (SI) and cardiac output (CI) were compared in subjects engaged in different types of training. The subjects consi...

Contribution of central and reflex nervous activity to the rapid increase in pulmonary ventilation at the start of muscular exercise in man
To investigate the relative contributions of the central and peripheral neural drive to hyperventilation at the onset of muscular exercise, five volunteers were tested during the first ten breaths while perfor...
