Eight weeks of post‐exercise local heating does not improve cognition and plasma brain‐derived neurotrophic factor concentrations

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise and heat stress have been reported to independently provide benefits to brain health. We tested the hypothesis that 8 weeks of post‐exercise local heating, passive local heating only, or exercise training only improves cognitive performance compared to a control group.

Ankle-brachial index and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity jointed to predict mortality in a community study

, 2015
[[abstract]]Background: Pulse volume recordings and blood pressures at arms and ankles can be obtained automatically and simultaneously to allow fast measurements of the brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity and the ankle-brachial index.

Effect of Wave Reflection and Arterial Stiffness on the Risk of Development of Hypertension in Japanese Men

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
BackgroundWe conducted analyses of repeated‐measures data to examine whether pressure wave reflection acts additively or synergistically with arterial stiffness in the pathogenesis of hypertension.

The effects of uninterrupted and interrupted sitting on blood pressure and arterial stiffness in patients with established coronary heart disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sedentary behaviour is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In healthy adults, prolonged uninterrupted sitting acutely increases blood pressure (BP) and aortic stiffness; however, these effects can be mitigated with light physical activity interruptions.

Dose‐dependent effects of graded altered gravity during hypovolaemia on central haemodynamics and cardiovascular autonomic regulation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The cardiovascular system is strongly influenced by gravitational loading and blood volume status. Quantifying central haemodynamic and autonomic reflex responses to fluid redistribution is important in altered‐gravity conditions, with relevance to spaceflight and clinical medicine.

Screening for peripheral artery disease: focus on toe-brachial index

Cardiologia Hungarica
Toe-brachial index (TBI) measurement helps to detect peripheral artery disease (PAD) in patients with incompressible ankle arteries due to medial sclerosis, most frequently associated with diabetes.

Relation of Socioeconomic Position With Ankle–Brachial Index [PDF]

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2011
Potential upstream determinants of coronary heart disease (CHD) include life-course socioeconomic position (e.g., childhood socioeconomic circumstances, own education and occupation); however, several plausible biological mechanisms by which socioeconomic position (SEP) may influence CHD are poorly understood. Several CHD risk factors appear to be more
