The Physiological Consequences of Breathing Supplementary Oxygen in Healthy Human Subjects

Previous studies have implicated oxygen (02)-dependent substances in the vasodilator response to muscle contraction. This thesis explores the effect of breathing supplementary O2, (40% O2: hyperoxia) on the increase in forearm blood flow (FBF) and vascular conductance (functional hyperaemia) evoked...
