Study Notes

Cardiovascular Physiology

  • The Frank-Starling law represents the relationship between stroke volume and end diastolic volume.
  • When the volume of blood in the ventricles increases, the stroke volume of the heart also increases.
  • When the blood stretches cardiac muscle, the force of contraction increases.
  • The Frank-Starling mechanism is physiologically important because it allows the cardiac output to be synchronized with venous return.

Paolo Mantegazza

  • He investigated the effects of coca leaves.
  • Paolo Mantegazza was born in Monza, Italy.
  • He obtained his medical degree in 1849.
  • He founded the first Museum of Anthropology and Ethnology in Italy.
  • In the Republic of Argentina and Paraguay, Paolo Mantegazza worked as a physician and professor.
