Introduction: Charting the Evolution of English and Anglophone Writing in Asia

World Englishes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This introductory article explores the history of the English language and literatures in the Asian ‘Outer Circle’ countries, or English in its ‘second diaspora’, focusing primarily on literature from its beginnings to the present. Due to space limitations, the scope is further narrowed to poetry and the novel – the two genres that, arguably ...

Is resting muscle sympathetic nerve activity related to peripheral or cerebrovascular haemodynamics at high altitude? A retrospective analysis

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐altitude hypoxia elicits several profound physiological responses, including substantial increases in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA); however, the association of this heightened MSNA with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular haemodynamics remains unclear in lowlanders and indigenous highlander populations.

Cerebral and peripheral haemodynamics at rest and in response to orthostasis during 3 days of simulated heatwave

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acute heat stress reduces cerebral haemodynamics and orthostatic tolerance. However, the haemodynamic response to orthostasis during prolonged heat stress typical of heatwaves is unknown. We hypothesised that thermoregulatory‐induced elevations in peripheral haemodynamics during 3 days of simulated heatwave would exacerbate orthostatic‐induced

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors mediate sustained sympathoexcitation during high altitude hypoxia in humans

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.

Age‐related loss of hysteresis in the spontaneous vascular sympathetic baroreflex is associated with altered neural rather than mechanical control

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The vascular sympathetic baroreflex is critical for stabilising blood pressure. A notable feature of this reflex is hysteresis, a directional asymmetry in responsiveness during rising versus falling pressure that is evident in young adults but attenuated in older age.

Mechanisms regulating cerebral perfusion during running exercise: Influence of foot strike‐induced pulsatility oscillations, CO2 reactivity and BP

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Young, healthy males and females completed an incremental running test, demonstrating a progressive increase in middle cerebral artery blood velocity (MCAv) up to maximal exercise despite reductions in end‐tidal CO2. To investigate the underlying mechanism, foot‐strike timing was synchronized to the diastolic phase of the cardiac

Pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors modulate exercise‐induced sympathetic activation in healthy humans during moderate‐intensity hypoxic exercise

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This randomized cross‐over trial (N = 12) addressed the hypothesis that selective reduction of pulmonary arterial pressure (i.e. manipulation of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptor activation) during hypoxic exercise would reduce sympathetic outflow (muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA)) in healthy humans.

Role of reactive oxygen species in mediating peripheral hypoxic vasodilation and sympathoexcitation at high altitude

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude acclimatisation increases muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) via activation of the arterial chemoreflex, pulmonary arterial baroreceptors and resetting of the sympathetic vascular baroreflex. However attempting to silence these mechanisms only partially normalises MSNA, implicating other contributory ...
