Abstract Blood flow restriction (BFR) has been identified as a potential countermeasure to mitigate physiological deconditioning during spaceflight. Guidelines recommend that tourniquet pressure be prescribed relative to limb occlusion pressure (LOP); however, it is unclear whether body tilting or reduced gravity analogues influence LOP.

Background Cardiac autonomic neuropathy is a highly prevalent pathology in the diabetic population, and is the leading cause of death in this population. Orthostatic hypotension is the main clinical manifestation of the disease.

Assessing High-Order Links in Cardiovascular and Respiratory Networks via Static and Dynamic Information Measures [PDF]
The network representation is becoming increasingly popular for the description of cardiovascular interactions based on the analysis of multiple simultaneously collected variables. However, the traditional methods to assess network links based on pairwise interaction measures cannot reveal high-order effects involving more than two nodes, and are not ...

Abstract This narrative review highlights the impact of exercise on vascular health in females over the lifespan with an emphasis on puberty, pregnancy and menopause. These events encompass substantial changes in sex hormone levels, particularly oestrogens and progesterone.

Background In persons with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) or certain forms of atypical parkinsonism, orthostatic hypotension is common and disabling, yet often underrecognized and undertreated.

Plasticity of the heart in response to changes in physical activity
Abstract figure legend The heart adapts to changes in physical activity, with inactivity (e.g. bed rest or spaceflight) causing cardiac atrophy and ventricular stiffening, and endurance exercise training leading to eccentric hypertrophy and improved ventricular compliance.

α‐Synuclein in Parkinson's Disease: From Bench to Bedside
ABSTRACT α‐Synuclein (α‐syn), a pathological hallmark of PD, is emerging as a bridging element at the crossroads between neuro/immune‐inflammatory responses and neurodegeneration in PD. Several evidence show that pathological α‐syn accumulates in neuronal and non‐neuronal cells (i.e., neurons, microglia, macrophages, skin cells, and intestinal cells ...

Abstract Aim H+ facilitates metabolic blood flow regulation while negatively impacting cardiac contractility. Cardiovascular consequences of conjugate bases accumulating alongside H+ remain unclear. Here, we evaluate the cardiovascular effects of nine prominent carboxylates—particularly lactate, 3‐hydroxybutyrate, and butyrate—linked to metabolic and ...

ABSTRACT Background Postural instability and gait difficulties are key symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD), elevating the risk of falls substantially. Falls afflict 35% to 90% of PD patients, representing a major challenge in managing the condition. Accurate prediction of fall risk and identification of contributing factors are essential for timely ...
