Project Details
Description
The project involves three "sub-studies" focussing on the effects of changes in blood pressure or sympathetic activity on the splenic volume in healthy volunteers.
a. Studying the effects of head-up tilt, the cold pressor test, thigh cuff maneuver, and apnea, respectively, on splenic volume and cardiovascular responses.
b. Studying the effects of the Wingate test (an anaerobic capacity test), a maximal oxygen uptake test, and apnea, respectively, on splenic volume and cardiovascular responses.
c. Studying the effects of repeated Wingate tests and repeated apneas, respectively, on splenic volume and cardiovascular responses.
