Physical exercise performance in temperate and warm environments is decreased by an impaired arterial baroreflex.

The present study aimed to investigate whether running performance in different environments is dependent on intact arterial baroreceptor reflexes. We also assessed the exercise-induced cardiovascular and thermoregulatory responses in animals lacking arterial baroafferent signals. To accomplish thes...
