Sex differences in cerebral blood flow and cardiac function in response to exercise in the heat
Abstract We investigated the effect of exercising in hot conditions on cerebral blood flow and systolic left ventricular (LV) function in males and females, to explore sex differences. The experimental condition consisted of walking on a treadmill at 5 km/h and 2% incline, inside a heat chamber at 40°C (50% relative humidity), for 90 min.

There is a close link between the activity of the brain and cerebral blood supply. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) modulates the activity of the cerebral cortex and thus affects the cerebral blood flow.

Abstract Arterial shear‐mediated vasodilation is a well‐established measure of endothelial function and serves as a critical biomarker for cardiovascular disease risk. Endothelial function can be measured using a variety of experimental methodologies; however, the most widely adopted technique is ultrasound‐based flow‐mediated dilation (FMD), in which ...

Doppler ultrasonography of the lower extremity arteries: Anatomy and scanning guidelines
Doppler ultrasonography of the lower extremity arteries is a valuable technique, although it is less frequently indicated for peripheral arterial disease than for deep vein thrombosis or varicose veins.

Transcranial sonography in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
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

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 ...

Transcranial sonography: practical use in the intensive care unit
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 ...

Background: Stroke is a major cause of morbidity and mortality affecting about 10% of patients with sickle cell anemia (SCA). Transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasonography helps to identify children with SCA who are at an increased risk for stroke.

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 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 ...
