The paper looks at the baroreflex mechanism examining effects of altering the transmural pressure in baroreceptor stimulation by the application of suction and pressure on the skin overlying the carotid bifurcations. The protocol of the study is presented, the results are discussed, conclusions are made about the difference in the baroreceptor sensitivity between the right and left carotid baroreceptor, and the effect of gender on the stimulation of the carotid baroreceptors.
