/* * Guyton Model: stress_relaxation * * Model Status * * This CellML model has been validated. Due to the differences * between procedural code (in this case C-code) and declarative * languages (CellML), some aspects of the original model were * not able to be encapsulated by the CellML model (such as the * damping of variables). This may affect the transient behaviour * of the model, however the steady-state behaviour would remain * the same. The equations in this file and the steady-state output * from the model conform to the results from the MODSIM program. * * Model Structure * * Arthur Guyton (1919-2003) was an American physiologist who became * famous for his 1950s experiments in which he studied the physiology * of cardiac output and its relationship with the peripheral circulation. * The results of these experiments challenged the conventional * wisdom that it was the heart itself that controlled cardiac * output. Instead Guyton demonstrated that it was the need of * the body tissues for oxygen which was the real regulator of * cardiac output. The "Guyton Curves" describe the relationship * between right atrial pressures and cardiac output, and they * form a foundation for understanding the physiology of circulation. * * The Guyton model of fluid, electrolyte, and circulatory regulation * is an extensive mathematical model of human circulatory physiology, * capable of simulating a variety of experimental conditions, * and contains a number of linked subsystems relating to circulation * and its neuroendocrine control. * * This is a CellML translation of the Guyton model of the regulation * of the circulatory system. The complete model consists of separate * modules each of which characterise a separate physiological * subsystems. The Circulation Dynamics is the primary system, * to which other modules/blocks are connected. The other modules * characterise the dynamics of the kidney, electrolytes and cell * water, thirst and drinking, hormone regulation, autonomic regulation, * cardiovascular system etc, and these feedback on the central * circulation model. The CellML code in these modules is based * on the C code from the programme C-MODSIM created by Dr Jean-Pierre * Montani. * * This particular CellML model describes the effect of stress * relaxation on basic venous volume (V0). This model calculates * the effect over a period of time caused by excess volume (or * too little volume) in the venous tree to cause changes in the * volume holding capacity of the venous tree when it is fully * filled with blood but at zero pressure. In this model, there * are two separate parallel stress relaxations of the veins. One * of these has a short time constant (SRK) and the other has a * long time constant (SRK2). * * model diagram * * [[Image file: full_model.png]] * * A systems analysis diagram for the full Guyton model describing * circulation regulation. * * model diagram * * [[Image file: stress.png]] * * A schematic diagram of the components and processes described * in the current CellML model. * * There are several publications referring to the Guyton model. * One of these papers is cited below: * * Circulation: Overall Regulation, A.C.
