Placebo and nocebo effects on pain through the lens of the predictive brain: Neurobiological mechanisms and translational implications

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Placebo and nocebo effects on pain provide a model for investigating how cognitive and contextual factors modulate the physiological processes underlying nociception and its regulation. However, existing accounts remain fragmented and lack a unifying mechanistic framework linking brain, behaviour and autonomic responses.

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on cognitive performance, cerebrovascular function, sleep and biomarkers of neurodegeneration in older adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disease. Repeated passive heating, using hot water immersion (HWI), may improve cognitive performance via improved cerebral oxygenation, but this is yet to be examined in older adults.

Stroke neurovascular responses to exercise: A novel rehabilitation paradigm

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Stroke is a leading cause of long‐term disability, impacting the cerebrovascular, peripheral vascular and neuromotor systems. Characterising vascular responses to exercise post‐stroke offers valuable insights into the impairments that might influence outcomes during neurorehabilitation.

Cerebral and peripheral haemodynamics at rest and in response to orthostasis during 3 days of simulated heatwave

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acute heat stress reduces cerebral haemodynamics and orthostatic tolerance. However, the haemodynamic response to orthostasis during prolonged heat stress typical of heatwaves is unknown. We hypothesised that thermoregulatory‐induced elevations in peripheral haemodynamics during 3 days of simulated heatwave would exacerbate orthostatic‐induced

Increased corticospinal excitability after rest with short term motor performance

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Motor skill performance is associated with early changes in corticospinal excitability (CSE), yet the influence of rest periods surrounding motor activity on these neurophysiological responses remains unclear. This study examined how matched pre‐ and post‐activity rest intervals influence CSE following novel fine motor task performance. Twenty‐
