ABSTRACT Objective Stress from daily psychosocial challenges is a significant health concern with limited pharmacological treatment options. Psychosocial stress triggers distinct responses in the autonomic and central nervous systems, measurable via heart rate variability (HRV) and electroencephalogram (EEG).

MetaNeb Versus Usual Care During Exacerbations of Cystic Fibrosis: An RCT
In adults with cystic fibrosis who were hospitalised with an exacerbation, twice daily MetaNeb produced greater improvements in ventilation inhomogeneity compared to twice daily usual airway clearance techniques. There were no between‐group differences shown for other outcomes, including respiratory symptoms.

Compromised dynamic cerebral autoregulation in patients with a right-to-left shunt: a potential mechanism of migraine and cryptogenic stroke. [PDF]
The relationship between right-to-left shunts (RLS) and migraine and cryptogenic stroke is not well understood. In this study, we investigated whether RLS are associated with impairment of dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA), which may play a role in ...

Abstract Whether extra‐diaphragmatic respiratory muscle output is altered in patients with unilateral diaphragm dysfunction (UDD) remains unclear. We compared respiratory pressures and muscle activity during symptom‐limited cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) in 10 patients with UDD and 10 matched controls.

Central and Peripheral Mechanisms of Low Exercise Capacity in Prematurely Born Adults
The lower exercise capacity described in preterm born adults is associated with impaired stroke volume augmentation in response to incremental exercise intensity, thus to a lower cardiac output response to exercise, compared to age‐matched individuals born at term.
