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

Experimental 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

Experimental 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

Acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia augments left ventricular contractility

The 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 ...

Efficiency and Safety of Endoscopic Injection Sclerotherapy With Ligation for Esophageal Varices: A Retrospective Study.

DEN Open, Volume 7, Issue 1, April 2027.
ABSTRACT Objectives Endoscopic injection sclerotherapy with ligation (EISL) is a combined endoscopic treatment that involves endoscopic injection sclerotherapy (EIS) and endoscopic variceal ligation. This study aimed to compare the efficacy of conventional EIS and EISL in treating esophageal varices and the usefulness of EISL.
