The theoretical basis of reservoir pressure in arteries

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The separation of measured arterial pressure into a reservoir pressure and an excess pressure was introduced over 20 years ago as a heuristic hypothesis. Since then it has gained some traction through epidemiological studies that show that various measures of reservoir and excess pressure are independent risk factors for cardiovascular disease.

Sex differences in cerebral blood flow and cardiac function in response to exercise in the heat

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the effect of exercising in hot conditions on cerebral blood flow and systolic left ventricular (LV) function in males and females, to explore sex differences. The experimental condition consisted of walking on a treadmill at 5 km/h and 2% incline, inside a heat chamber at 40°C (50% relative humidity), for 90 min.

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 ...

Sex differences in dynamic cerebral autoregulation responses to resistance and endurance training in humans

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise maintains brain health and reduces the risk of cerebrovascular diseases, such as stroke and dementia. The benefits of different ‘modalities’ of exercise on male and female cerebral autoregulation are unclear. In this study, we compared adaptations in dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) during spontaneous and forced oscillations in ...

Coupling between global brain blood oxygen level‐dependent activity and cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in young endurance athletes

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) contributes to brain waste clearance through its coupling with cerebral haemodynamics. Aerobic exercise promotes brain health, but its influence on brain waste clearance remains unclear. This study examined the coupling between CSF and cerebral haemodynamics in endurance athletes. Fifteen young male endurance athletes

Cerebrovascular regulation during heat stress

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Given that the brain is a highly metabolic organ and is enclosed by the skull, effective regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), not only for oxygen and nutrients supply but also as a means of convective heat exchange, is critical for preventing excessive elevations in brain temperature.

An Investigation Of The Effect Of Obstructive Sleep Apnea On Cerebral Hemodynamics In Relation With Systemic Hemodynamics

open access: yes, 2015
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is a major sleep disorder affecting approximately 18 million adults in the US. Recent studies have observed cognitive impairments and brain structural changes in OSA subjects where these deficits were related to peripheral ...
