Interaction Information:

Comment As expected, change from supine to head-up posture (active tilt) induced a significant activation of the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), as assessed by the increase in plasma norepinephrine levels. Active tilt increased plasma glycerol, free fatty acid, norepinephrine levels, and extracellular glycerol concentration to the same extent whatever the gender and fat deposit.
