Acute hot‐water immersion augments the diastolic blood pressure nocturnal dip in healthy adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hot‐water immersion (HWI) has been shown to reduce 24 h ambulatory systolic blood pressure in hypertensive adults and might represent a preventative strategy for maintaining cardiovascular health in normotensive adults. The purpose of this study was to determine the time course of post‐HWI hypotension and test the hypothesis that a single HWI ...

A new approach to an old disease: Ageing, arrhythmogenic substrate and the role of risk‐factor modification in atrial fibrillation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) prevalence rises sharply with age due to two independent mechanisms. Ageing produces irreversible arrhythmogenic substrate changes through progressive fibrosis, cellular senescence and mitochondrial dysfunction, while modifiable risk factors such as obesity, hypertension, sleep apnoea, diabetes and alcohol use promote ...

Galectin‐3 plasma levels are associated with left atrial contractile function in long‐distance runners

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐intensity endurance exercise induces myocardial remodelling as an adaptive response to sustained volume overload, but excessive cumulative training might also favour deleterious cardiac remodelling, including atrial fibrosis. Whether acute marathon running engages circulating fibrosis‐related biomarkers and whether these biomarkers track ...

Effects of 14 days of head‐down bed rest with or without exercise, and subsequent recovery on bone turnover, density and structure in older adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bed rest accelerates bone loss and may exacerbate skeletal fragility. This study examined the effects of 14 days of head‐down tilt bed rest (HDBR) with or without exercise, and subsequent recovery, on bone turnover, density and structure in older adults. Twenty‐two healthy older adults (55–65 years) completed the HDBR protocol.

Increasing paced heart rate reduces cerebral pulsatility

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebral pulsatility is a key index of cerebral haemodynamics, a central determinant of intravascular shear stress within intracranial vessels, and is associated with cerebral small vessel disease. It increases with a spontaneously falling heart rate, but the effect of altering heart rates on cerebral haemodynamics is unknown.
