Prehypertensive Blood Pressures and Regional Cerebral Blood Flow Independently Relate to Cognitive Performance in Midlife [PDF]
Background High blood pressure is thought to contribute to dementia in late life, but our understanding of the relationship between individual differences in blood pressure (BP) and cognitive functioning is incomplete.

Phosphomimetic modulation of eNOS improves myocardial reperfusion and mimics cardiac postconditioning in mice. [PDF]
Myocardial infarction resulting from ischemia-reperfusion injury can be reduced by cardiac postconditioning, in which blood flow is restored intermittently prior to full reperfusion.

Altered cerebral hemodyamics and cortical thinning in asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis. [PDF]
Cortical thinning is a potentially important biomarker, but the pathophysiology in cerebrovascular disease is unknown. We investigated the association between regional cortical blood flow and regional cortical thickness in patients with asymptomatic ...

Determination of regional bone blood flow by means of fluorescent microspheres using an automated sample-processing procedure [PDF]
The determination of regional blood flow utilizing fluorescent microspheres (FMs) is an established method for numerous organs. Recent progress, in particular the automation of sample processing, has further improved this method.

Acute Blood Loss: Regional Blood Flow and Microcirculation (Review, Part II)
It was shown in the first part of the review that the alterations of systemic hemodynamics and microcirculation in acute blood loss led to the development of metabolic disorders and cell damage.

Methylphenidate’s Effect on Cerebral Blood Flow in Patients with Narcolepsy [PDF]
We performed 99mTc-ethyl cysteinate dimer brain single-photon emission computed tomography before and after administering methyl-phenidate, for four weeks, to narcolepsy patients with cataplexy.

Pericyte-mediated regulation of capillary diameter: a component of neurovascular coupling in health and disease [PDF]
Because regional blood flow increases in association with the increased metabolic demand generated by localised increases in neural activity, functional imaging researchers often assume that changes in blood flow are an accurate read-out of changes in ...

Acute Blood Loss: Regional Blood Flow and Microcirculation (Review, Part I)
The first part of the review highlights the data on the structural and functional organization of the microvas culature; regulation of vascular tone including local (metabolic and myogenic mechanisms, role of endothelium and red blood cells) and systemic
