Cardiovascular Physiology Neural Control Mechanisms: Proceedings of the 28th International Congress of Physiological Sciences, Budapest, 1980

by A. G. B. Kovách (Editor), P. Sándor (Editor), M. Kollai (Editor)

Overview

Cardiovascular Physiology Neural Control Mechanisms contains the proceedings of the symposia of the 28th International Congress of Physiology held in Budapest between 13 and 19 of July, 1980. Organized into six parts, this book begins with an elucidation of the integrative role of the autonomic nervous system in the regulation of cardiovascular function. Parts II and III explain neural reflex control of the heart and cerebral blood flow regulation. Nervous control of the microcirculation and control of vascular capacitance in man and animals are then discussed. The last part focuses on the reflex control of the circulation in man.
