“…This system is known to influence survival following vascular shock and/or tissue injury induced by hemorrhage (9)(10)(11)20), endotoxin (10,15,16,20), epinephrine (11), trauma (2,20), acceleration (15), tourniquet occlusion (16) or heat stress (3)(4)(5)7,8). Furthermore, shock susceptibility is increased by RES blockade (2,7,10,16,20).…”
