An olfactory-parotid salivary reflex in humans?

abstract：:The effects of muscle fatigue on the mechanical efficiency of muscle work performance were studied in situ, in stretch-shortening cycles that resembled physiological conditions. The experiments were performed on the medial gastrocnemius muscles of seven rats. To calculate efficiency, a simple Hill-type model was used,...
