Contributions of vascular ageing to late‐onset Alzheimer's disease

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Late‐onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) is an age‐related disease that is strongly associated with vascular risk factors and cerebrovascular impairments. As such, changes in the vasculature with advancing age likely contribute to LOAD, but the mechanisms underlying these contributions remain incompletely understood.

Lifestyle modification in atrial fibrillation: Mechanisms, phenotypes and ablation outcomes

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most prevalent sustained cardiac arrhythmia and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and healthcare utilization. Catheter ablation is increasingly used as a rhythm‐control intervention for patients with symptomatic paroxysmal and persistent AF, yet recurrence rates remain suboptimal.

Effects of reducing sedentary behaviour on heart rate variability and cardio‐metabolic biomarkers in desk workers with untreated high blood pressure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Lower sedentary behaviour (SB) has been associated with reduced cardiovascular disease and mortality. Yet, few trials have evaluated cardiovascular mechanisms of benefit. We examined the effects of a SB reduction intervention on heart rate variability (HRV) and cardio‐metabolic biomarkers.

Effects of Circulating and Local Uteroplacental Angiotensin II in Rat Pregnancy.

, 2010
The renin-angiotensin (Ang) system is important during placental development. Dysregulation of the renin-Ang system is important in preeclampsia (PE). Female rats transgenic for the human angiotensinogen gene crossed with males transgenic for the human ...

Neuroprotective roles of klotho: Molecular pathways and therapeutic implications for cognitive health in neurological and psychiatric diseases

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Klotho, a pleiotropic protein initially identified for its role in kidney function, has garnered significant attention for its neuroprotective properties in various neurodegenerative diseases. It regulates key processes, such as oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, synaptic plasticity and myelination, all crucial for maintaining neuronal ...

Haemodynamic effects of aliskiren in decompensated severe heart failure

, 2012
Aim: The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) has dual pathways to angiotensin II production; therefore, multiple blockages may be useful in heart failure.

Acute hot‐water immersion augments the diastolic blood pressure nocturnal dip in healthy adults

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Hot‐water immersion (HWI) has been shown to reduce 24 h ambulatory systolic blood pressure in hypertensive adults and might represent a preventative strategy for maintaining cardiovascular health in normotensive adults. The purpose of this study was to determine the time course of post‐HWI hypotension and test the hypothesis that a single HWI ...

Dose‐dependent effects of graded altered gravity during hypovolaemia on central haemodynamics and cardiovascular autonomic regulation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The cardiovascular system is strongly influenced by gravitational loading and blood volume status. Quantifying central haemodynamic and autonomic reflex responses to fluid redistribution is important in altered‐gravity conditions, with relevance to spaceflight and clinical medicine.

Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes: Pathophysiological mechanisms and opportunities for multiscale computational modelling and simulation

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical
