Acute cardiovascular changes following heat exposure during simulated shipboard firefighting
Abstract Like structural firefighting, shipboard firefighting requires extreme exertion. However, shipboard firefighting may be a unique cardiovascular stress as most sailors lack extensive firefighting experience and may complete significant work before reaching the fire scene.

Evaluation of a disposable prism for applanation tonometry [PDF]
Recently the Medical Devices Agency recommended that 'ophthalmic devices that touch the surface of the eye should be restricted to single use'.To evaluate one such device: a disposable tonometer prism for routine applanation tonometry.The intraocular pressure (IOP) of 100 consecutive patients from a general eye clinic (197 eyes) was measured with both ...

Abstract Advanced age is the strongest risk factor for Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRDs). Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has also been recognized as a risk factor for ADRD, potentially contributing to an earlier onset of the disease. Thus, elucidating the mechanisms underlying brain ageing and TBI is critical for developing strategies to ...

Non‐Invasive Assessment of Endothelial Dysfunction and Arterial Stiffness in Fontan Circulation
The Fontan procedure is the definitive treatment for complex congenital heart disease, creating a circulation without a subpulmonary ventricle. This altered hemodynamic state negatively affects endothelial function, contributing to progressive organ dysfunction and long‐term morbidity.

ABSTRACT Although carotid‐femoral pulse wave velocity (cf‐PWV) is the non‐invasive gold standard for assessing aortic stiffness, evidence linking cf‐PWV to basal ganglia enlarged perivascular spaces (BG‐EPVS) in the general population is limited. We aimed to evaluate this association and quantify the mediating role of blood pressure (BP) in community ...
