Ageing attenuates regional vasoconstriction during acute lowering of upper and lower limbs
Abstract The venoarteriolar and myogenic response (VMR) is a non‐adrenergic, non‐baroreflex‐mediated mechanism that increases local vascular resistance and contributes to blood pressure (BP) regulation during orthostasis. Despite the importance of the VMR in human cardiovascular control, no information exists elucidating possible differences in the VMR

Abstract figure T‐type VGCCs contribute to the contraction of the rabbit aorta and modulate both contraction and vasodilation in the rabbit renal artery. α1, alpha 1 adrenergic receptor; ATR, angiotensin II receptor; Ang II, angiotensin II; CaM, calmodulin; Cav3, T‐type voltage‐gated Ca2⁺ channels; cGMP, cyclic guanidine monophosphate; EC, endothelial ...

Abstract Even among healthy individuals, arterial blood pressure (ABP) responses to exercise vary widely. However, the mechanisms underlying this individual variability remain unclear. To investigate these mechanisms, 29 participants performed isometric handgrip exercise at 30% of their maximum voluntary contraction, followed by postexercise muscle ...

Abstract figure legend Schematic illustration of the bidirectional causative link between cerebral amyloid‐beta (Aβ) angiopathy and cardiovascular disease in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Common cardiovascular risk factors like microvascular thrombosis, diabetes, atrial fibrillation, hypertension and atherosclerosis lead to cerebral hypoperfusion and ...

Abstract figure legend Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), cervicomedullary stimulation (CMS), and femoral nerve stimulation (FNS) were used to assess changes in corticomotoneuronal excitability induced by fatiguing submaximal knee‐extension contractions performed in three conditions: (1) voluntarily (VOL); (2) electrically evoked (EVO); and (3 ...

Abstract figure legend We investigated how 6 weeks of dynamic knee‐extensor interval training with blood flow restriction (BFR‐leg) and without (CTRL‐leg) impacts performance and its mechanisms using non‐invasive methods. Specifically, we used gold‐standard methods to assess neuromuscular function, vascular function using Doppler ultrasound, and near ...

Open‐Source Simulator of Imaging Near Metal at Arbitrary Magnetic Field Strengths
ABSTRACT Purpose The increasing prevalence of orthopedic metallic implants necessitates optimization of MRI methods to monitor surrounding tissues and identify complications. The emergence of contemporary mid‐ and low‐field systems as promising platforms for imaging around metal requires development of new protocols optimized for these field strengths.

A Novel, Low‐Cost, Nonbiological Phantom for Training in Ultrasound‐Guided Regional Anesthesia
ABSTRACT Background Trainees of ultrasound‐guided regional anesthesia (UGRA) should begin with phantoms before use on patients. The phantoms currently available have substantial drawbacks. Our aim was to develop a low‐cost homemade UGRA phantom without perishable parts, which shows sonoanatomical details and hydrodissection when injecting fluid—the ...
