Cardio-postural interactions and muscle-pump baroreflex are severely impacted by 60-day bedrest immobilization

Abstract To understand fundamental mechanisms associated with post-flight orthostatic intolerance we investigated the interaction between the cardiovascular and postural functions before and after 60 days of head down bedrest (HDBR). Twenty healthy young males (35.0 ± 1.7 years) were subjected to 60...
