1 Effect of Different Sympathetic Stimuli–Autonomic Dysreflexia and Head-up Tilt–on Leg Vascular Resistance in Spinal Cord Injury  Jan T. Groothuis, MD, Gerard A. Rongen, MD, PhD, Alexander C. Geurts, MD, PhD, Paul Smits, MD, PhD, Maria T.

2 Fig 1 Leg vascular resistance in persons with SCI (n=9) and controls (n=9) during exaggerated sympathetic activity, autonomic dysreflexia in persons with SCI or CPT in controls, and 30° HUT. Values represent mean + SE. Abbreviations: AD, autonomic dysreflexia; AU, arbitrary units. *Significantly different from baseline.

3 Fig 2 MAP in persons with SCI (n=9) and controls (n=9) during exaggerated sympathetic activity, autonomic dysreflexia in persons with SCI or CPT in controls, and 30° HUT. Values represent mean + SE. Abbreviation: AD, autonomic dysreflexia. *Significantly different from baseline.

4 Fig 3 Schematic representation of the vasoconstriction reserve in control subjects and persons with SCI. Leg vascular resistance in supine (Supine) position during CPT, HUT, HUT combined with CPT (HUT+CPT), and autonomic dysreflexia (AD) are indicated. Whether maximal vasoconstriction is established during HUT combined with CPT in control subjects and HUT or AD in persons with SCI is not known.
