Brain perfusion declines with aging. Physical exercise represents a low-cost accessible form
of intervention to increase cerebral blood flow; however, it remains unclear if exercise …

During hospitalisation with COVID-19, individuals may experience prolonged periods of
immobilisation. Combined with the inflammatory effects of the virus, this may lead to a …

Cerebral hemodynamics, eg, cerebral blood flow, can be measured and quantified using
many different methods, with transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) being one of the most …

New Findings What is the central question of this study? Does habitual exercise modality
affect the directionality of the cerebral pressure–flow relationship? What is the main finding …

Currently, the standard approach for restricting exercise prior to cerebrovascular data
collection varies widely between 6 and 24 h. This universally employed practice is a …

Excessive arterial pressure elevation induced by resistance exercise (RE) attenuates
peripheral vasodilatory function, but its effect on cerebrovascular function is unknown. We …

Purpose The present study examined the effect of breath-hold without a Valsalva maneuver
during isometric exercise on arterial blood pressure (ABP) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) …

Resistance training (RT) is associated with improved metabolism, bone density, muscular
strength, and lower risk of osteoporosis, sarcopenia, and cardiovascular disease. Although …

Dynamic resistance exercise (RE) produces sinusoidal fluctuations in blood pressure with
simultaneous fluctuations in middle cerebral artery blood velocity (MCAv). Some evidence …

During unilateral static and rhythmic handgrip exercise, middle cerebral artery blood velocity
(MCAv) increases in the contralateral side to the exercising limb. However, whether this …
