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.

Three-dimensional color Doppler flow assessment of ischemic mitral regurgitation

open access: yes, 2010
Purpose. Volume-rendered images of the mitral valve apparatus have enabled visualization of the MV leaflets, orifice, and submitral apparatus in a manner that is not possible using conventional 2-dimensional echocardiography.

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors mediate sustained sympathoexcitation during high altitude hypoxia in humans

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.

Trans-esophageal echocardiography for tricuspid and pulmonary valves

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2009
Transesophageal echocardiography has been shown to provide unique information about cardiac anatomy, function, hemodynamics and blood flow and is relatively easy to perform with a low risk of complications.

Prediabetic cardiomyopathy is attenuated by hypothalamic PVN oxytocin neuron activation

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend A long‐term high‐fat, high‐fructose diet induces prediabetes with insulin resistance, hyperinsulinaemia, elevated triglycerides and metabolic‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in male rats. Animals developed prediabetic cardiomyopathy characterized by diastolic dysfunction, interstitial fibrosis and tachycardia ...

Method of checking the function of implanted artificial valve by pulsed Doppler echocardiography – in vitro study

open access: yesArchives of Acoustics, 2015
The usefulness of pulsed Doppler echocardiography for verifying the function of implanted Bjork-Shiley tilting disc valve prosthesis was checked experimentally in vitro. The valve was built into a physical model of central blood circulation.
