Quantifying skin microvascular function responses to distinct forms of heat stress in humans using optical coherence tomography

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables visualization and quantification of the cutaneous microvasculature, yet no study has compared responses to distinct forms of heating in humans. We hypothesized that local skin heating (LH) would evoke larger responses in microvascular diameter, velocity, flow and density than passive whole‐body ...

Oxidative stress and impaired cardiovagal baroreflex sensitivity in young adults with post‐traumatic stress disorder

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Post‐traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is associated with elevated cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk, yet the underlying physiological characterization in young adults remain unclear. This study examines whether autonomic and/or vascular dysfunction predominates as an early precursor to CVD development in young adults with PTSD and explores the

Dose‐dependent effects of graded altered gravity during hypovolaemia on central haemodynamics and cardiovascular autonomic regulation

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The cardiovascular system is strongly influenced by gravitational loading and blood volume status. Quantifying central haemodynamic and autonomic reflex responses to fluid redistribution is important in altered‐gravity conditions, with relevance to spaceflight and clinical medicine.

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Twenty‐four healthy adults were studied to determine the effects of an acute session of 40 min of intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia on cardiac performance. Cardiac function was assessed via echocardiography at rest and during graded stages of lower‐body negative pressure before and after the intervention to quantify load ...
