Neckties and Cerebrovascular Reactivity in Young Healthy Males: A Pilot Randomised Crossover Trial
Background. A necktie may elevate intracranial pressure through compression of venous return. We hypothesised that a tight necktie would deleteriously alter cerebrovascular reactivity. Materials and Methods.

Changes in Hemodynamic Responses in Chronic Stroke Survivors Do Not Affect fMRI Signal Detection in a Block Experimental Design [PDF]
The use of canonical functions to model BOLD-fMRI data in people post-stroke may lead to inaccurate descriptions of task-related brain activity. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the spatiotemporal profile of hemodynamic responses (HDRs)

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 ...

The dependence of CO<sub>2</sub> cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) on caffeine. [PDF]
Abstract Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) represents an important marker of brain vascular health, particularly in the context of small and large vessel diseases. However, an undesired feature of this measure is that there exist large variations in CVR values across individuals, which is mainly attributed to physiological factors.
