The effect of nitric oxide inhibition in spinal cord injured humans with and without preserved sympathetic control of the vasculature

Systemic pharmacological inhibition of nitric oxide (NO) causes a hypertensive response, which has been attributed both to inhibition of peripheral NO-mediated vasodilatation and to inhibition of central nervous NO-production leading to a later onset sympathetic vasoconstriction. In the present stud...
