The published research
[Differences in the redistribution of cardiac output during hyperthermia in waking rats and guinea pigs].
Fiziologicheskii zhurnal SSSR imeni I. M. Sechenova · 1991
The study documents heat-induced redistribution of cardiac output, with increased blood flow to heat radiation sites (skin) and decreased flow to splanchnic organs and kidneys, consistent with the described response. However, the abstract does not quantify the skin perfusion as a percentage of cardiac output (e.g., 50-70%), so the specific magnitude in the response is not directly confirmed.
