Fall 2023
Endothelial function measured via flow-mediated dilation following mild, acute carbon monoxide (CO) exposure was quantified in 19 healthy young non-smoking adult participants (n=10 females). The Schmidt-Prommer rebreathe method for the measurement of blood volume was used for the CO exposure, and...
