The development of an elastic reverse gradient garment to be used as a countermeasure for cardiovascular deconditioning [PDF]

open access: yes
Using a new nomex lycra elastic fabric and individualized garment engineering techniques, reverse gradient garments (RGG's) were designed, constructed, and tested for effectiveness as a countermeasure against cardiovascular deconditioning.

Retrospective Study on Liberation in Dogs Undergoing Mechanical Ventilation for Longer Than 24 h

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To describe liberation in a population of dogs undergoing ≥24 h of mechanical ventilation (MV) and to assess for differences between successful and unsuccessful liberation attempts as well as adherence to criteria for veterinary and human readiness to discontinue MV. Design Retrospective study.

Effects of the angle of head‐down tilt on dynamic cerebral autoregulation during combined exposure to cephalad fluid shift and mild hypercapnia

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Astronauts experience combined exposure to a cephalad fluid shift and mild hypercapnia during space missions, potentially contributing to health problems. Such combined exposure may weaken dynamic cerebral autoregulation. The magnitude of cephalad fluid shift varies between individuals, and dynamic cerebral autoregulation may be affected more ...

Optimizing cerebrovascular endothelial health through shear stress modulation

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
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.

Applying lessons from limb muscle disuse and ageing to better understand ventilator‐induced diaphragm dysfunction

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life‐saving intervention applied to critically ill patients. A common consequence of MV is ventilator‐induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD), which is characterized by significant diaphragm atrophy and reduced contractile function. Older patients who receive MV are more likely to develop VIDD, have worse recovery,

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

open access: yesExperimental 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.
