Why friendship and loneliness affect our health

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1545, Issue 1, Page 52-65, March 2025.
Friendships play an especially important role in our lives, providing emotional and other sources of support as well as creating the communities on which our survival has depended. Friendship is underpinned both by core areas within the brain and by β‐endorphins.

Neural pathways underlying the production of pitch and rhythm in aphasia

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, EarlyView.
Singing is a universal trait, and prior studies suggest singing ability may be preserved in poststroke aphasia. This study examined neural networks underpinning singing in patients with aphasia using white matter connectometry and singing accuracy assessments. Results showed patients with aphasia had poorer singing accuracy than controls, linked to the

Confined spaces in space: Cerebral implications of chronic elevations of inspired carbon dioxide and implications for long‐duration space travel

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cerebrovascular regulation is critically dependent upon the arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2${P_{{\mathrm{aC}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$), owing to its effect on cerebral blood flow, tissue PCO2${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$, tissue proton concentration, cerebral metabolism and cognitive and neuronal ...

Feasibility of superimposed supine cycling and lower body negative pressure as an effective means of prolonging exercise tolerance in individuals experiencing persisting post‐concussive symptoms: Preliminary results

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract To examine the feasibility, utility and safety of superimposed lower body negative pressure (LBNP) and tilt during supine cycling in individuals suffering from persisting post‐concussive symptoms (PPCS). Eleven individuals aged 17–31 (6 females/5 males) participated in two randomized separate visits, 1 week apart.
