A structure is reported which describes the relatively free availability of the motor respiratory apparatus to non-respiratory functions due to the presence of a respiratory control both on homeostatic and motor levels. It is assumed that, at the motor level, a competition develops of two or more regulators for the same parameter (e.g. the activity of neurons that can be claimed both by respiratory and by a second skeletal motor process). The compromise being reached is dependent on the amplification in the competing circuits. The correlation between the metabolic value and that of the respiration-time volume may be accomplished by the fact that amplification in the respiratory-motor circuit is rendered variable as a result of its interconnection with the chemical respiratory control. The high time constant of the latter allows for the instantaneous free availability of the motor respiratory apparatus to non-respiratory functions. The postulated structure offers better interpretations for the actual respiration behaviour than those considering the respiratory function alone.
据报道，由于在稳态和运动水平上都存在呼吸控制，一种结构描述了运动呼吸装置相对自由地用于非呼吸功能。据推测，在运动水平上，两个或更多调节因子会针对同一参数展开竞争（例如，神经元的活动可同时被呼吸过程和第二个骨骼肌运动过程所调用）。所达成的妥协取决于竞争回路中的放大作用。代谢值与呼吸时间容积之间的相关性可能是由于呼吸运动回路与化学呼吸控制相互连接，使得该回路中的放大作用变得可变而实现的。后者的高时间常数使得运动呼吸装置能够即时自由地用于非呼吸功能。与仅考虑呼吸功能的解释相比，所假设的结构为实际呼吸行为提供了更好的解释。
