Recurrent Laughter-induced Syncope [PDF]
Syncope is a common presenting complaint in Neurology clinics or Emergency departments, but its causes are sometimes difficult to diagnose. Apart from vasovagal attacks, other benign, neurally mediated syncopes include “situational” syncopes, which occur

Hemodynamic Evaluation of Nonselective \u3b2-Blockers in Patients with Cirrhosis and Refractory Ascites [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Nonselective \u3b2-blockers (NSBB) have been associated with increased incidence of paracentesis-induced circulatory dysfunction (PICD) and reduced survival in patients with cirrhosis and refractory ascites.

Midodrine as a Countermeasure for Post-Spaceflight Orthostatic Hypotension [PDF]
One possible mechanism for post-spaceflight orthostatic hypotension, which affects approximately 30% of astronauts after short duration shuttle missions, is inadequate norepinephrine release during upright posture.

Hemodynamic Instability during Dialysis:The Potential Role of Intradialytic Exercise [PDF]
Acute haemodynamic instability is a natural consequence of disordered cardiovascular physiology during haemodialysis (HD). Prevalence of intradialytic hypotension (IDH) can be as high as 20–30%, contributing to subclinical, transient myocardial ischemia.

The Postural Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS): Pathophysiology, Diagnosis & Management [PDF]
Postural tachycardia syndrome (POTS), characterized by orthostatic tachycardia in the absence of orthostatic hypotension, has been the focus of increasing clinical interest over the last 15 years 1. Patients with POTS complain of symptoms of tachycardia,

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Abstract Background Pregnancy after a Parkinson's diagnosis presents complex challenges. Due to the paucity of literature, there is no evidence‐based guidelines and protocols for preconception care, management of pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum period in women with early‐onset Parkinson's disease (PD).
