Ventilatory effects of 8 h of isocapnic hypoxia with and without beta-blockade in humans.
This study investigated whether changing sympathetic activity, acting via beta-receptors, might induce the progressive ventilatory changes observed in response to prolonged hypoxia. The responses of 10 human subjects to four 8-h protocols were compared: 1) isocapnic hypoxia (end-tidal PO2 = 50 Torr)...
