Table 3.

Pressure-volume regression parameters

(ΔLimb Volume) = β0 + β1 · (Cuff Pressure) + β2 · (Cuff Pressure)2
Young
    Baseline ΔLimb volume = (0.799 ± 0.530) + (0.141 ± 0.007) · (cuff pressure) − (0.00125 ± 0.00007) · (cuff pressure)2
    Blocked ΔLimb volume = (0.813 ± 0.324) + (0.125 ± 0.008) · (cuff pressure) − (0.00111 ± 0.00009) · (cuff pressure)2
Older
    Baseline ΔLimb volume = (1.233 ± 0.554) + (0.103 ± 0.013)* · (cuff pressure) − (0.00084 ± 0.00013)* · (cuff pressure)2
    Blocked ΔLimb volume = (0.844 ± 0.301) + (0.094 ± 0.013)* · (cuff pressure) − (0.00080 ± 0.00011)* · (cuff pressure)2

Data were obtained before (baseline) and during systemic adrenergic blockade (blocked) in young and older men.
