Constriction-distension relationships of resistance vessels in normo- and hyper-tension.
A haemodynamic analysis of resistance vessel behaviour in normo- and hyper-tension has been performed, relating vessel design, degree of contraction, wall distensibility and transmural pressure to each other in a way which allows a semiquantitative prediction of their respective influences in various situations.
