Abstract
Regional splanchnic blood flow (rSBF) was measured in rabbits with the radioactive microsphere technique. No statistically significant changes occurred in rSBF or vascular conductances in relation to the different states of the sleep-waking cycle (quiet-wakefulness, synchronized sleep, and desynchronized sleep).
