Description
Summary:The measured endpoints included arteriolar and venular diameter changes, arteriolar and venular blood flow (as calculated using Poiseuille's law), and functional capillary density (FCD). Animal models always raise the issue of applicability to human physiology. [...]the authors’ negative pressure device only targeted the skeletal muscle and subcutaneous tissue circulations; applying this concept to other organ systems—with heterogeneous physiologies and varying accessibility—is more theoretical than practical at this point (Govender et al., 2021). [...]this experiment isolated the effects of one treatment modality.
