Parkinson's Disease and the Cardiac Cycle: A Rapid Literature Review and Case Series. [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Cardiac function in patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is not well understood. We conducted a review of the literature to summarize all available data on the cardiac cycle in patients with PD and followed up the review with

Active tactile discrimination is coupled with and modulated by the cardiac cycle. [PDF]
Perception and cognition are modulated by the phase of the cardiac signal in which the stimuli are presented. This has been shown by locking the presentation of stimuli to distinct cardiac phases.

Cardiac Cycle Affects the Asymmetric Value Updating in Instrumental Reward Learning. [PDF]
This study aimed to investigate whether instrumental reward learning is affected by the cardiac cycle. To this end, we examined the effects of the cardiac cycle (systole or diastole) on the computational processes underlying the participants’ choices in ...

A tomographic microscopy-compatible Langendorff system for the dynamic structural characterization of the cardiac cycle. [PDF]
IntroductionCardiac architecture has been extensively investigated ex vivo using a broad spectrum of imaging techniques. Nevertheless, the heart is a dynamic system and the structural mechanisms governing the cardiac cycle can only be unveiled when ...

Cardiac cycle shapes spinal cord excitability. [PDF]
Background The heart exerts a rhythmic influence on the nervous system, modulating neural excitability throughout the cardiac cycle. Although cardiac-phase effects on cortical excitability have been extensively studied, the temporal profile and ...

The diastolic duration as a percentage of the cardiac cycle in healthy adults: A pilot study. [PDF]
Background: A widely accepted concept in cardiovascular physiology states that diastole constitutes 62.5 % of the cardiac cycle during a typical 0.8-s cycle at 75 beats per minute.

Relationships between irregular pulsation and variations in morphological characteristics during the cardiac cycle in unruptured intracranial aneurysms by 4D-CTA. [PDF]
Background and purposeIrregular pulsation of the aneurysmal wall has been suggested as a novel predictor for aneurysm rupture. Aneurysm volume variations during the cardiac cycle and the association between irregular pulsation and morphological features ...
