Is the Regulation of blood pressure autonomic or somatic?

The regulation of blood pressure is primarily autonomic, controlled by the autonomic nervous system. It involves reflexes that can adjust heart rate, blood vessel diameter, and volume of blood in circulation to maintain blood pressure within a normal range. Somatic control, which involves conscious effort, is not a significant factor in regulating blood pressure.


How is the heart involved in pulmonary circulation?

Right side of the heart is involved in pulmonary circulation. This circulation is called, at times, as lesser circulation, as against the greater or systemic circulation. Blood that flows through the lesser and greater circulation is same in amount. But there is gross difference between the two. You have interstitial compartment in the systemic circulation. This is maintained through high blood pressure there. You do not have the same in pulmonary circulation. What you need here is simple blood flow, with out formation of the interstitial compartment. For that you have blood systolic blood pressure of about 25 mm of mercury. The blood pressure in the capillaries is about 15 mm of the mercury. The oncotic pressure of the blood proteins is about 22 mm of mercury. So very little fluid is leaked out to keep the alveoli wet. Some times in diseased condition more fluid is leaked out in the alveoli, to give rise to pulmonary oedema.


Does the thalamus control blood pressure?

The thalamus does not directly control blood pressure. It is primarily involved in relaying sensory and motor signals to the cerebral cortex. Blood pressure is mainly regulated by the brainstem and the autonomic nervous system.

What is the effect of exercise on blood pressure levels?

Regular exercise has been shown to have a positive effect on blood pressure levels by helping to lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings. This is because exercise strengthens the heart, improves blood circulation, and helps to maintain a healthy weight, all of which contribute to better blood pressure control.
