Reductions in carotid chemoreceptor activity with low‐dose dopamine improves baroreflex control of heart rate during hypoxia in humans

The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the contribution of the carotid body chemoreceptors to changes in baroreflex control of heart rate with exposure to hypoxia. We hypothesized spontaneous cardiac baroreflex sensitivity (scBRS) would be reduced with hypoxia and this effect would...
