Individuals with persisting post‐concussion symptoms with physiological subtype demonstrate altered cardiovascular and autonomic responses to face cooling

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Individuals with persisting post‐concussion symptoms with physiological subtype (PPCS‐P) demonstrate exercise intolerance due to exacerbation of concussion‐like symptoms during incremental exercise. We tested the hypothesis that individuals with PPCS‐P (n = 12) would have a blunted cardiac autonomic response to face cooling compared to healthy

Optic nerve sheath diameter ultrasound evaluation in intensive care unit. possible role and clinical aspects in neurological critical patients' daily monitoring [PDF]

, 2017
Background. The increase of the optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) is a reliable, noninvasive sonographic marker of intracranial hypertension. Aim of the study was to demonstrate the efficacy of ONSD evaluation, when monitoring neurocritical patients, to

Optimizing cerebrovascular endothelial health through shear stress modulation

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The endothelium plays a pivotal role in regulating cerebrovascular blood flow, and its dysfunction increases the risk of cerebrovascular disease. Endothelial shear stress, a primary mechanical stimulus for endothelial nitric oxide production, is a key modulator of vascular adaptation.

Ultrasound and dynamic functional imaging in vascular cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

, 2017
The vascular contributions to neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation may be assessed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and ultrasonography (US). This review summarises the methodology for these widely available, safe and relatively low cost tools and ...

Linking dynamic cerebral autoregulation and inhibitory executive function: Role of modifiable behaviours

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) stabilises cerebral blood flow (CBF) against rapid fluctuations in perfusion pressure and may serve as a key physiological mediator of cognitive function. Inhibitory executive function, a core domain essential for goal‐directed behaviour, is influenced by modifiable lifestyle factors such as physical ...

Time‐course analysis of cerebral circulation and cardiorespiratory responses to acute central blood volume reduction in healthy young males

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Central blood volume (CBV) reduction challenges circulatory and respiratory homeostasis, particularly during the initial compensatory phase (0–2 min), when rapid physiological adaptations occur. In this study, we examined dynamic cardiorespiratory responses to CBV reduction using lower‐body negative pressure (LBNP) in 11 healthy young males ...

Cerebral haemodynamic responses to inspiratory muscle work

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Fatiguing inspiratory work has been shown to evoke a sympathetically mediated reflex that has systemic cardiovascular consequences, including increases in heart rate and blood pressure and a decrease in resting limb vascular conductance. Moreover, the response to this reflex appears to be attenuated in females compared with males.

Analyzing post‐endovascular treatment stroke prognosis with transcranial Doppler and quantitative electroencephalography

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology
Objective Despite successful recanalization following acute ischemic stroke, patients may have a poor prognosis. We investigated whether transcranial Doppler combined with quantitative electroencephalography can identify patients with a poor prognosis at
