Dynamic effects of cholinergic blockade upon cerebral blood flow autoregulation in healthy adults
Background: Cerebral flow autoregulation (CFA) is a homeostatic mechanism critical for survival. The autonomic nervous system (ANS) plays a key role in maintaining proper CFA function. More quantitative studies of how the ANS influences CFA are desirable.

Research Progress on Upper Airway Cough Syndrome
ABSTRACT Upper airway cough syndrome (UACS) has been identified as a significant contributor to chronic cough in various national guidelines. However, the complexity of its pathogenesis, the lack of clarity surrounding its diagnostic criteria, and its overlap with other etiologies of chronic cough present considerable challenges in both diagnosis and ...

Cerebral autoregulation, brain injury, and the transitioning premature infant [PDF]
Improvements in clinical management of the preterm infant have reduced the rates of the two most common forms of brain injury, such as severe intraventricular hemorrhage and white matter injury, both of which are contributory factors in the development ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Allergic rhinitis (AR) and non‐allergic rhinitis (NAR) share overlapping symptoms but differ in pathophysiology and treatment. Current AR diagnosis relies on skin prick testing (SPT) and serum IgE quantification, both of which are complex.

Risk of Cancer With Hormone Replacement Therapy: A Narrative Review
ABSTRACT Hormone replacement therapy (HRT) remains the cornerstone of menopausal symptom management, effectively alleviating vasomotor symptoms and genitourinary syndrome, whilst mitigating long‐term risks such as osteoporosis. However, despite an increasing body of evidence on the relative safety of HRT, earlier studies that demonstrated an increased ...

Regulation of Coronary Vasomotor Function by Reactive Oxygen Species [PDF]
Overproduction of reactive oxygen species is closely associated with cardiovascular diseases in part by impairing endothelial function and consequently compromising blood flow regulation. Superoxide and hydrogen peroxide are elevated under various disease states with reduced endothelium-derived nitric oxide bioavailability.

Abstract Background Blood pressure is a crucial risk factor for hemodialysis patients, but the specific impact of weather factors, particularly barometric pressure, on blood pressure remains unclear. This study aims to examine the relationship between barometric pressure and blood pressure in hemodialysis patients. Methods We conducted a single‐center,
