Abstract To test the hypothesis that hot water immersion (HWI) improves cerebrovascular function via shear‐mediated mechanisms, this study determined cerebrovascular reactivity to carbon dioxide (CVRCO2${\mathrm{CV}}{{\mathrm{R}}_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) before and after 60 min of 39°C HWI and a 21°C air control (CON) in 15 healthy ...

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 ...

Abstract Exercise maintains brain health and reduces the risk of cerebrovascular diseases, such as stroke and dementia. The benefits of different ‘modalities’ of exercise on male and female cerebral autoregulation are unclear. In this study, we compared adaptations in dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) during spontaneous and forced oscillations in ...

Abstract Aerobic exercise testing helps facilitate recovery post‐concussion. Current protocols (Calgary Concussion Cycling Test: CCCT) are inaccessible for athletes with lower‐body impairments (i.e. Para athletes). This study compared physiological parameters for a novel arm crank test, the Calgary Adapted aRm Ergometer (CARE) test, with the CCCT ...

Cerebrovascular regulation during heat stress
Abstract Given that the brain is a highly metabolic organ and is enclosed by the skull, effective regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF), not only for oxygen and nutrients supply but also as a means of convective heat exchange, is critical for preventing excessive elevations in brain temperature.
