Heart rate variability and the dynamic nature of the retinal microvasculature: providing insight into the brain-retina-heart link: the SABPA study
Wentzel, Annemarie; Malan, Leoné; Von Känel, Roland; Smith, Wayne; Malan, Nicolaas (Karger, 2019)Controversy exists regarding the contribution of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) to the retinal microvasculature’s autoregulatory capacities.
