Effect of Smoking on Cerebrovascular Reactivity [PDF]
Current smoking is a risk factor for stroke. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of smoking one cigarette on cerebral hemodynamics. Using transcranial Doppler ultrasound, we studied the changes of flow velocity after hypercapnia in the middle cerebral arteries (MCAs) of 24 healthy young smokers and 24 healthy controls matched for age and ...

Concussion is a form of traumatic brain injury (TBI) that presents with a wide spectrum of subjective symptoms and few objective clinical findings. Emerging research suggests that one of the processes that may contribute to concussion pathophysiology is ...

NIRS-based cerebrovascular regulation assessment: exercise and cerebrovascular reactivity [PDF]
Alterations to cerebral blood flow (CBF) have been implicated in diverse neurological conditions. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS)-measured regional cerebral tissue oxygen saturation ([Formula: see text]) provides an estimate of oxygenation of interrogated cerebral volume useful in identifying variations in oxygen supply to cerebral tissue and in ...

Impaired endothelium-mediated cerebrovascular reactivity promotes anxiety and respiration disorders in mice [PDF]
Carbon dioxide (CO(2)), the major product of metabolism, has a strong impact on cerebral blood vessels, a phenomenon known as cerebrovascular reactivity.

Rapid cerebrovascular reactivity mapping: Enabling vascular reactivity information to be routinely acquired [PDF]
Cerebrovascular reactivity mapping (CVR), using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and carbon dioxide as a stimulus, provides useful information on how cerebral blood vessels react under stress.

Background Although vasopressor and sedative agents are commonly used within the intensive care unit to mediate systemic and cerebral physiology, the full impact such agents have on cerebrovascular reactivity remains unclear.

Background The aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of commonly administered sedatives (Propofol, Alfentanil, Fentanyl, and Midazolam) and vasopressor (Dobutamine, Ephedrine, Noradrenaline and Vasopressin) agents on cerebrovascular reactivity in ...

Background and Purpose: BOLD fMRI is becoming the preferred modality to study cerebrovascular reactivity. Amongst the vasoactive stimuli to induce it, breath holding is considered equal to other methods but both cerebrovascular reserve measures and ...

Impaired Cerebrovascular Reactivity in Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]
Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) is an inherent indicator of the dilatory capacity of cerebral arterioles for a vasomotor stimulus for maintaining a spontaneous and instant increase of cerebral blood flow (CBF) in response to neural activation. The integrity of this mechanism is essential to preserving healthy neurovascular coupling; however, to our ...
