Gills as Possible Accessory Circulatory Pumps in Limulus polyphemus [PDF]
Heart electrical activity (ECGs), gill closer muscle potentials (EMGs), and blood pressures in the heart and the branchiocardiac canals, were measured in adult horseshoe crabs (Limulus polyphemus) during various activities.

Optimizing cerebrovascular endothelial health through shear stress modulation
Abstract The endothelium plays a pivotal role in regulating cerebrovascular blood flow, and its dysfunction increases the risk of cerebrovascular disease. Endothelial shear stress, a primary mechanical stimulus for endothelial nitric oxide production, is a key modulator of vascular adaptation.

Design and Validation of a Breathing Detection System for Scuba Divers
Drowning is the major cause of death in self-contained underwater breathing apparatus (SCUBA) diving. This study proposes an embedded system with a live and light-weight algorithm which detects the breathing of divers through the analysis of the ...

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

Inspiratory muscle training reduces blood lactate concentration during volitional hyperpnoea [PDF]
Although reduced blood lactate concentrations ([lac−]B) have been observed during whole-body exercise following inspiratory muscle training (IMT), it remains unknown whether the inspiratory muscles are the source of at least part of this reduction.

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 ...

Abstract Central blood volume (CBV) reduction challenges circulatory and respiratory homeostasis, particularly during the initial compensatory phase (0–2 min), when rapid physiological adaptations occur. In this study, we examined dynamic cardiorespiratory responses to CBV reduction using lower‐body negative pressure (LBNP) in 11 healthy young males ...

Abstract Stability in cerebral oxygen extraction fraction (OEF) is typically determined by alterations in cerebral blood flow (CBF). At rest, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) and OEF exhibit a strong inverse relationship owing to the powerful influence of PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$
