Influence of hypercapnia and hypercapnic hypoxia on the heart rate response to apnea

Physiological Reports
We aimed to determine the relative contribution of hypercapnia and hypoxia to the bradycardic response to apneas. We hypothesized that apneas with hypercapnia would cause greater bradycardia than normoxia, similar to the response seen with hypoxia, and ...

Acute exercise‐induced improvements in cognition: Role of cerebral blood flow and metabolism

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Physical activity is widely recognized for its ability to promote brain health, with acute exercise transiently enhancing cognition and long‐term training attenuating cognitive decline. However, the mechanisms underlying these benefits remain incompletely understood.

Evidence-based Approach to Establish Space Suit Carbon Dioxide Limits [PDF]

A literature survey was conducted to assess if published data (evidence) could help inform a space suit carbon dioxide (CO2) limit. The search identified more than 120 documents about human interaction with elevated CO2. Until now, the guiding philosophy

Modulation of cerebral blood flow and cognition by hyperthermia and hypoxia: An electroencephalographic event‐related potentials perspective

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebral blood flow (CBF) is essential for sustaining neuronal metabolism and cognitive performance; however, the precise relationship between perfusion and cognition remains unclear. Although ageing and disease are associated with progressive declines in CBF and cognitive impairment, the acute effects of altered CBF under environmental ...

Effect of carbon dioxide inhalation on pulmonary hypertension induced by increased blood flow and hypoxia

Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2011
There is now increasing evidence from the experimental and clinical setting that therapeutic hypercapnia from intentionally inspired carbon dioxide (CO2) or lower tidal volume might be a beneficial adjunct to the strategies of mechanical ventilation in ...

Contributions of vascular ageing to late‐onset Alzheimer's disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) is an age‐related disease that is strongly associated with vascular risk factors and cerebrovascular impairments. As such, changes in the vasculature with advancing age likely contribute to LOAD, but the mechanisms underlying these contributions remain incompletely understood.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Increased ventilatory response to carbon dioxide in COPD patients following vitamin C administration

ERJ Open Research, 2015
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have decreased ventilatory and cerebrovascular responses to hypercapnia. Antioxidants increase the ventilatory response to hypercapnia in healthy humans.

Whole‐body hot water immersion effect on cerebral haemodynamics and subsequent cerebrovascular reactivity to carbon dioxide

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract To test the hypothesis that hot water immersion (HWI) improves cerebrovascular function via shear‐mediated mechanisms, this study determined cerebrovascular reactivity to carbon dioxide (CVRCO2${\mathrm{CV}}{{\mathrm{R}}_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) before and after 60 min of 39°C HWI and a 21°C air control (CON) in 15 healthy ...

GABAergic neurons in the medullary raphé possess network independent chemosensitivity in situ [PDF]

, 2012
The identity and location of central pH/CO2 sensitive chemoreceptors are not fully understood. Serotonin (5-HT) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) synthesizing neurons in the medullary raphé have demonstrated intrinsic chemosensitivity in vitro.
