Abstract
Non‐technical summary We investigated the role of thin fibre muscle afferents in the circulatory response to exercise in humans. The results not only document the importance of continuous afferent feedback from working human skeletal muscle to achieve appropriate haemodynamic and ventilatory responses to exercise but also suggest that the relative contribution of this mechanism is larger than traditionally accepted.This publication has 60 references indexed in Scilit:
