Abstract Ageing is associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disease. Repeated passive heating, using hot water immersion (HWI), may improve cognitive performance via improved cerebral oxygenation, but this is yet to be examined in older adults.

Abstract Pulsatility of the brain has been hypothesised to be linked to intracranial pressure (ICP), although the nature of this relationship remains poorly understood. We used a low‐level expiratory resistance manoeuvre to characterise brain tissue pulsation (BTP) responses in a pilot healthy volunteer study.

Stroke neurovascular responses to exercise: A novel rehabilitation paradigm
Abstract Stroke is a leading cause of long‐term disability, impacting the cerebrovascular, peripheral vascular and neuromotor systems. Characterising vascular responses to exercise post‐stroke offers valuable insights into the impairments that might influence outcomes during neurorehabilitation.

Abstract Acute heat stress reduces cerebral haemodynamics and orthostatic tolerance. However, the haemodynamic response to orthostasis during prolonged heat stress typical of heatwaves is unknown. We hypothesised that thermoregulatory‐induced elevations in peripheral haemodynamics during 3 days of simulated heatwave would exacerbate orthostatic‐induced

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.

Abstract Regulation of respiratory muscle blood flow during acute systemic hypotension remains poorly understood in humans because continuous assessment of microvascular perfusion during rapid haemodynamic transients has been technically challenging. Using diffuse correlation spectroscopy, we investigated second‐by‐second coupling between mean arterial

Intermittent hypoxia interventions for inducing ventilatory acclimatization to high altitude?
Abstract Accumulation of ∼200 h of hypoxia exposure (pre‐acclimatization) has been suggested to prevent the development of acute mountain sickness when a person is subsequently exposed to high altitude. These pre‐exposures are typically undertaken intermittently at or near the place of residence, primarily during sleep in hypoxic tents, and are likely ...
