Cerebrovascular pulsatility following long duration spaceflight is associated with changes in pulse pressure and carotid artery stiffness

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Central artery stiffening increases the haemodynamic pulsations transmitted downstream towards target organs, including the brain. While recent evidence suggests that long duration spaceflight is associated with reduced common carotid artery (CCA) distensibility, cerebrovascular pulsatility has not been extensively characterized in astronauts.

Transcranial sonography in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]

Einstein (São Paulo), 2012
Transcranial sonography has become a useful tool in the differentialdiagnosis of parkinsonian syndromes. This is a non-invasive, low costprocedure. The main finding on transcranial sonography in patientswith idiopathic Parkinson’s disease is an increased

Uncovering the impact of the cardiovascular system on cerebrovascular health using MRI

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human cerebrovasculature is finely tuned to enable local changes in blood flow to meet the brain's demands, whilst protecting the brain from systemic changes in blood pressure, both acutely during a heartbeat and chronically over time. This review summarises cerebrovascular structure and function, their role in disease and neurodegeneration ...

Transcranial sonography: practical use in the intensive care unit

Anaesthesiology Intensive Therapy
Brain ultrasonography has emerged as a valuable diagnostic and monitoring tool in intensive care, complementing other point-of-care techniques. Transcranial colour-coded duplex (TCCD) offers a rapid, non-invasive, repeatable, and cost-effective bedside ...

Migraine with aura and TCD bubble-test: The significance of positive result [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2015
Background/Aim. The association between the right-to left shunt (RLS) and migraine with aura (MA) has been proven so far. The aim of this study was to determine if the presence of RLS detected as a result of transcranial doppler (TCD) bubble ...

Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in anaesthesia and intensive care [PDF]

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2004
Transcranial Doppler ultrasonography (TCD) was introduced in 1982 by Aaslid and colleagues 5 as a non-invasive technique for monitoring blood flow velocity (FV) in the basal cerebral arteries. It is now increasingly being used in anaesthesia and intensive care for research as well as in clinical practice.

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

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.

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 ...

Spontaneous Nonaneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Review of 75 Cases

Nepal Journal of Neuroscience, 2005
The primary objective of this study was to describe the clinical, radiological, and transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonography characteristics of patients with spontaneous, nonaneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SNSAH), and analyze their short- term ...
