Loosed what are you arguing? That your theorem that pressure decrease is the same wherever the aorta is hit? Or any vessel in the system? Or just that you can't prove either way?
Consider the brain functions on glucose and oxygen, delivered by the circulatory system. Now you have blood running from aortic valve-ascending aorta(plus some blood to the heart)-bracheiocephalic trunk(which gives off the carotids)-and then the rest of the aorta.
In an earlier post you typed that a shot to the descending aorta would work just as well as ascending aorta. This is incorrect though I will readily agree that the time is insignificant, there are no studies to prove this one way or another)
In the real world you still have to function even without a study so you make a knowledgable deduction, you base this on how you know the body reacts. I will spell this out in a final effort to make myself clear.
Someone is shot in the ascending aorta- blood pressure drops as each heartbeat causes more blood to leave the system, vessels constrict in an effort to save the brain(the body always works to save the brain) this wound is rapidly fatal as the brain uses up oxygen.
Now say someone gets shot lower still in thorax but lower the same thing happens except with each heartbeat some blood( and thus oxygen) is delivered- this is not long maybe 3 beats I don't really know. What I do know is the brain will get more oxygen then if the system is hit higher. How significant it is we don't know( no studies) however in the absence of studies you can still make an informed descion on where a wound is mOst likely effective.
Why is this not clear?
