The baroreceptor reflex emanating from the carotid sinus and common carotid artery of the sheep : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Physiology at Massey University [PDF]
The aim of this project was to improve understanding of the role of the common carotid arterial baroreceptor mechanism in controlling peripheral blood pressure in the sheep.

Macrophage TNF-α mediates parathion-induced airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs. [PDF]
Organophosphorus pesticides (OPs) are implicated in human asthma. We previously demonstrated that, at concentrations that do not inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity, the OP parathion causes airway hyperreactivity in guinea pigs as a result of ...

Abstract The intestinal microbiome plays a pivotal role in maintaining host health through its involvement in gastrointestinal, immune, and central nervous system (CNS) functions. Recent evidence underscores the bidirectional communication between the microbiota, the gut, and the brain and the impact of this axis on neurological diseases, including ...

Resting‐state functional connectivity changes with microburst vagus nerve stimulation therapy
Abstract Objective Microburst vagus nerve stimulation (μVNS) may reduce seizure frequency in drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) via targeted thalamic plasticity. We prospectively investigated the role of thalamic resting‐state functional connectivity (rsFC) in μVNS effects and hypothesized a relationship between thalamic rsFC and long‐term seizure frequency
