[The correlation of cardiac mechanical activity and arterial pressure in the hemodynamic postural reactions of rats].

In orthostasis, an increase in the body incline angle led to a decrease in the systolic AP, systolic pressure in the left ventricle and a progressive decrease of the final diastolic pressure in rats. The same incline in antiorthostasis decreases the systolic AP, increase the systolic and final diastolic pressure in the left ventricle. These and some other findings show that compensatory responses are mainly manifested in the vascular system both in ortho- and antiorthostasis, whereas shifts in the cardiac activity correspond to the type of blood redistribution.
