In New Zealand it is also known by its Māori language, Māori name and (along with other species such as the sooty shearwater) as a Muttonbird (other), muttonbird. Taxonomy This species was formerly treated as a subspecies of the great-winged petrel (''Pterodroma macroptera'') but has been recognized as a separate species since 2014. Research published in 2016 supports the conclusion that ''P. gouldi'' should be treated as a separate species.

Orthostatic Intolerance
Orthostatic intolerance (OI) is the development of symptoms when standing upright that are relieved when reclining. There are many types of orthostatic intolerance. OI can be a subcategory of dysautonomia, a disorder of the autonomic nervous system occurring when an individual stands up. Some animal species with orthostatic hypotension have evolved to cope with orthostatic disturbances. A substantial overlap is seen between syndromes of orthostatic intolerance on the one hand, and either chronic fatigue syndrome or fibromyalgia on the other. It affects more women than men (female-to-male ratio is at least 4:1), usually under the age of 35. Orthostatic intolerance occurs in humans because standing upright is a fundamental stressor, so requires rapid and effective circulatory and neurologic compensations to maintain blood pressure, cerebral blood flow, and consciousness. When a human stands, about 750 ml of thoracic blood are abruptly translocated downward. People who have OI ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
