Sex‐related differences in the peripheral vascular response to hypoxia: Implications in health and relevance for obstructive sleep apnoea

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The incidence and presentation of obstructive sleep apnoea, as well as hypertension and cardiovascular disease, have been reported to differ by sex. It is thus reasonable to propose mechanisms contributing to subsequent pathology differ by sex. This concept is supported from a pre‐pathological perspective, as sex differences have been observed

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Leg‐fidgeting versus standing breaks during prolonged sitting: Impacts on blood pressure and heart rate in young women

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this work was to examine whether leg‐fidgeting breaks during prolonged sitting could be a practical alternative to standing breaks in preventing blood pressure (BP) and heart rate (HR) impairments. Young women (n = 16; age = 21.9 ± 3.0 years; body mass index = 21.1 ± 4.9 kg/m2) completed three 3‐h prolonged sitting conditions ...

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 ...

Whole‐body hot water immersion effect on cerebral haemodynamics and subsequent cerebrovascular reactivity to carbon dioxide

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract To test the hypothesis that hot water immersion (HWI) improves cerebrovascular function via shear‐mediated mechanisms, this study determined cerebrovascular reactivity to carbon dioxide (CVRCO2${\mathrm{CV}}{{\mathrm{R}}_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) before and after 60 min of 39°C HWI and a 21°C air control (CON) in 15 healthy ...
