Comparison of two cardiac output monitors, qCO and LiDCO, during general anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Optimization of cardiac output (CO) has been evidenced to reduce postoperative complications and to expedite the recovery. Likewise, CO and other dynamic cardiac parameters can describe the systemic blood flow and tissue oxygenation state and

A comparison of normobaric and hypobaric hypoxia effects on cerebrovascular response pre and post maximal exercise

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A lack of consensus remains on whether normobaric hypoxia (NH) and hypobaric hypoxia (HH) may differentially impact physiological factors affecting cerebrovascular regulation, particularly with an additional strenuous exercise component. We sought to compare the acute effects of NH and HH on global cerebral blood flow (gCBF) at an altitude ...

Children’s body composition and stress, the ChiBS study : aims, design, methods, population and participation characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BACKGROUND: The last decades, the prevalence of childhood obesity has increased. Apart from other lifestyle factors, the effect of chronic psychosocial stress on the development of obesity has been recognized.

Quantifying skin microvascular function responses to distinct forms of heat stress in humans using optical coherence tomography

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Optical coherence tomography (OCT) enables visualization and quantification of the cutaneous microvasculature, yet no study has compared responses to distinct forms of heating in humans. We hypothesized that local skin heating (LH) would evoke larger responses in microvascular diameter, velocity, flow and density than passive whole‐body ...

Sex‐specific differences in mortality and neurocardiac interactions in the Kv1.1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP)

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The Kcna1 knockout mouse model of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) exhibits sex‐specific differences in SUDEP risk. Female mice exhibit a lower SUDEP risk than males, despite similar seizure characteristics and interictal cardiac function across sexes.

Extraction of reliable information from time-domain pressure and flow signals measured by means of forced oscillation techniques [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper aims to give a proof-of-concept for the possible application of the forced oscillation lung function test to assess the viscoelastic properties of the airways and tissue.

Pregnancy shifts endothelial progenitor cell morphology and function: Role of metabolism, pro‐inflammatory cytokines and fetal sex

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend We recruited non‐pregnant women (NP), women in early pregnancy (EP) and late pregnancy (LP) for isolation of endothelial colony forming cells (ECFCs) via density gradient centrifugation. Plasma supernatant was collected for analysis of markers of glucose and lipid metabolism (fasting glucose, triglycerides, cholesterol, low ...
