Modeling of Cerebral Blood Flow Autoregulation Using Mathematical Control Theory
A mathematical model of cerebral blood flow in the form of a dynamical system is studied. The cerebral blood flow autoregulation modeling problem is treated as a nonlinear control problem and the potential and applicability of the nonlinear control ...

Hyperglycaemia does not increase perfusion deficits after focal cerebral ischaemia in male Wistar rats [PDF]
Background: Hyperglycaemia is associated with a worse outcome in acute ischaemic stroke patients; yet the pathophysiological mechanisms of hyperglycaemia-induced damage are poorly understood.

Dehydration accelerates reductions in cerebral blood flow during prolonged exercise in the heat without compromising brain metabolism [PDF]
Dehydration hastens the decline in cerebral blood flow (CBF) during incremental exercise, while the cerebral metabolic rate for oxygen (CMRO2) is preserved.

Silent cerebral infarcts (SCIs) are associated with cognitive impairment in sickle cell anemia (SCA). SCI risk factors include low hemoglobin and elevated systolic blood pressure; however, mechanisms underlying their development are unclear.

Cerebral vasoreactivity in response to a headof-bed position change is altered in patients with moderate and severe obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) can impair cerebral vasoreactivity and is associated with an increased risk of cerebrovascular disease. Unfortunately, an easy-to-use, non-invasive, portable monitor of cerebral vasoreactivity does not exist. Therefore, we

Effects of anesthesia on cerebral blood flow, metabolism, and neuroprotection
Administration of anesthetic agents fundamentally shifts the responsibility for maintenance of homeostasis from the patient and their intrinsic physiological regulatory mechanisms to the anesthesiologist.

Cerebral autoregulation, brain injury, and the transitioning premature infant [PDF]
Improvements in clinical management of the preterm infant have reduced the rates of the two most common forms of brain injury, such as severe intraventricular hemorrhage and white matter injury, both of which are contributory factors in the development ...

Regular walking breaks prevent the decline in cerebral blood flow associated with prolonged sitting.
Decreased cerebrovascular blood flow and function are associated with lower cognitive functioning and increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases. Prolonged sitting impairs peripheral blood flow and function, but its effects on the cerebrovasculature ...
