An integrated behavioral change model for smoking cessation in periodontal care: The four‐stage behavioral support staircase

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Smoking tobacco is a critical modifiable risk factor for periodontal and peri‐implant diseases. This narrative review integrates established behavioral theories with communication‐based psychological processes to propose an evidence‐based model for smoking cessation support in periodontal care.

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

Brain tissue pulsation responses to a low‐level expiratory resistance manoeuvre: A pilot healthy volunteer study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
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.

Daily hot‐water immersion preserves altitude‐induced haemoglobin mass expansion following descent independent of erythropoietin

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐altitude exposure increases haemoglobin mass (Hbmass), a key determinant of arterial oxygen‐carrying capacity, but following descent this adaptation can regress toward baseline within 7 days. Long‐term heat acclimation has emerged as an alternative stimulus for Hbmass expansion; however, whether post‐altitude passive‐heat exposure can ...
