  Baroreflex (BR) and cerebral autoregulation (CA) are two important mechanisms
regulating blood pressure and flow. However, the functional relationship
between BR and CA in humans is unknown. Since BR impairment is an adverse
prognostic indicator for both cardiac and cerebrovascular diseases it would be
of clinical interest to better understand the relationship between BR and CA.
Motivated by this observation we develop a simple mathematical framework aiming
to simulate the effects of BR on the cerebral blood flow dynamics.
