Background and Purpose—Cerebral autoregulation may become impaired after stroke. To
provide a review of the nature and extent of any autoregulation impairment after stroke and …

Background and Purpose—The etiology of cerebral small vessel disease is unknown. An
association with endothelial dysfunction has been suggested. We systematically assessed …

Background and Purpose—Animal studies provide strong evidence that aerobic exercise
training positively influences cerebral blood flow, but no human studies support the use of …

The immune system response and inflammation play a key role in brain injury during and
after a stroke. The acute immune response is responsible for secondary brain tissue …

Background Whether cerebral artery endothelial dysfunction is a key factor of symptomatic
lacunar stroke and cerebral small vessel disease remains unclear. Methods Cerebral and …

Abstract Background and aim Cerebral Vasomotor Reactivity (VMR) is a property of cerebral
hemodynamics that protects from cerebrovascular disease. We aimed to explore the VMR …

Elevated blood pressure is present in more than 60% of patients with acute stroke. Moderate
to severe hypertension affects stroke outcomes, yet the optimal management has been a …

Background Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) impairment and cerebral white matter lesions
(WMLs) are associated in elderly or patients with overt cerebral ischemia. Such association …

Background Hypertension is associated with cerebrovascular remodeling and endothelial
dysfunction, which may reduce cerebral vasomotor reactivity to CO2. Treatment combining …

Objective: To assess the cerebral vasomotor response to ipsilesional repetitive transcranial
magnetic stimulation (rTMS) on transcranial Doppler (TCD) in patients with recent ischemic …
