Reversibility of exercise-induced dendritic attenuation in brain cardiorespiratory and locomotor areas following exercise detraining

Point: Counterpoint: The classical Guyton view that mean systemic pressure, right atrial pressure, and venous resistance govern venous return is/is not correct

Point-Counterpoint: Active venoconstriction is/is not important in maintaining or raising end-diastolic volume and stroke volume during exercise and orthostasis

The classical Guyton view that mean systemic pressure, right atrial pressure, and venous resistance govern venous return is/is not correct
