Cerebrovascular flow‐mediated dilation in humans: Methodological challenges, physiological interpretation and future integrations

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Arterial shear‐mediated vasodilation is a well‐established measure of endothelial function and serves as a critical biomarker for cardiovascular disease risk. Endothelial function can be measured using a variety of experimental methodologies; however, the most widely adopted technique is ultrasound‐based flow‐mediated dilation (FMD), in which ...

Academic Procrastination of Spanish Pre-service Teachers during the COVID-19 Pandemic

open access: yesPsicología Educativa: Revista de los Psicólogos de la Educación
The present study seeks to ascertain whether the academic procrastination of university pre-service teachers varied during the COVID-19 pandemic when compared to data collected from another sample (n = 794) taken before the pandemic, and the reasons that

A comparison of normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia effects on cerebrovascular response pre and post maximal exercise

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A lack of consensus remains on whether normobaric hypoxia (NH) and hypobaric hypoxia (HH) may differentially impact physiological factors affecting cerebrovascular regulation, particularly with an additional strenuous exercise component. We sought to compare the acute effects of NH and HH on global cerebral blood flow (gCBF) at an altitude ...

The influence of active procrastination and passive procrastination on university students\u27 education and success in college [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The purpose of this research study was to explore the relationship between active procrastination, passive procrastination, and non-procrastination in regards to university students\u27 education and success in college, in an attempt to identify possible

Protein kinase Cδ and pharmacomechanical coupling: Re‐envisioning cerebral vascular control

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Top, G‐protein coupled receptors trigger electromechanical and pharmacomechanical coupling, the latter via signal transduction pathways that inhibit myosin light chain phosphatase. Middle, the relative contribution of electromechanical and pharmacomechanical coupling varies with the concentration and the vessel area to which ...

Energetic microdomains and the vascular control of neuronal and muscle excitability: Toward a unified model

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability. (

Motivational and Situational Aspects of Active and Passive Social Media Breaks May Explain the Difference Between Recovery and Procrastination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Students frequently multitask with social media (SM) during self-study. Such social media multitasking (SMM) has the potential either to support wellbeing by acting as a recovery activity or subvert it by acting as a procrastination activity.

Physiological mechanisms underlying enhanced performance with blood flow restriction training: neuromuscular, vascular and metabolic adaptations

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We investigated how 6 weeks of dynamic knee‐extensor interval training with blood flow restriction (BFR‐leg) and without (CTRL‐leg) impacts performance and its mechanisms using non‐invasive methods. Specifically, we used gold‐standard methods to assess neuromuscular function, vascular function using Doppler ultrasound, and near ...

Self-Regulation as a Mediator Between Learning Motivation and Academic Procrastination in Students Who Are Preparing a Thesis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Islamic Educational Psychology
Academic procrastination is the failure to complete an academic task within the desired timeframe or postpone the task until the last moment. Academic procrastination can be reduced if students have good self-regulation and motivation. This study aims to
