Hemodynamics and the regulation of splanchnic oxygen and glucose metabolism, the role of shear stress, nitric oxide, and prostaglandins

Vasoactive substances, such as nitric oxide (NO), prostaglandins and adenosine, are involved in the regulation of hepatic and intestinal blood flow and metabolism. These substances and other vascular factors interact. The genera...
