Vestibular modulation of muscle sympathetic nerve activity during sinusoidal linear acceleration in supine humans

The utricle and saccular components of the vestibular apparatus detect linear displacements of the head in the horizontal and vertical planes, respectively. We previously showed that sinusoidal linear acceleration in the horizontal plane of seated humans causes a pronounced modulation of muscle symp...
