Brain strain: Blood flow and metabolism in environmental extremes
Abstract This narrative review compares and contrasts the most commonly encountered environmental stressors on human cerebrovascular functioning. From high altitude and space, extreme apnoea, heat and cold stress, the impact of these stressors on the regulation of cerebral blood flow (CBF) and oxygen metabolism (CMRO2${\mathrm{CM}}{{\mathrm{R}}_ ...

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
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.

Intracranial hypertension influence on the cerebral blood flow in children with serous meningitis
Transcranial Doppler sonography was performed in 120 children with serous meningitis with various degrees of intracranial hypertension. Cerebral blood flow disturbances – decreased dilatation reserve and mean blood flow velocity in cerebral arteries ...

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

Abstract High‐altitude chronic hypoxia can induce excessive erythrocytosis (EE, defined as a haemoglobin concentration of ≥21 g/dL in men), leading to hyperviscosity and promoting endothelial dysfunction. We aimed to assess whether EE affects the retinal vascular phenotype and the ophthalmological vascular response to CO2.

Abstract figure legend Young, healthy males and females completed an incremental running test, demonstrating a progressive increase in middle cerebral artery blood velocity (MCAv) up to maximal exercise despite reductions in end‐tidal CO2. To investigate the underlying mechanism, foot‐strike timing was synchronized to the diastolic phase of the cardiac

Abstract figure legend During 10 h exposures to normobaric hypoxia exposure there was a selective leftward shift in ventilatory response to hyperoxic hypercapnic rebreathing, but not the cerebrovascular response. The key findings are that the resetting of the central chemoreflex to lower PCO2${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$ during early hypoxic ...

Manual of Transcranial Doppler Ultrasonography
Transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound is a crucial non-invasive tool for assessing cerebral blood flow and is widely used to diagnose and monitor cerebrovascular diseases.

Abstract figure legend Exercise‐induced increases in forearm venous plasma and serum brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) are often assumed to be indicative of release from the brain. Sixteen healthy and physically fit adults (20–40 years old) were recruited to investigate whether exercise‐induced changes in forearm venous mature BDNF (mBDNF) and ...
