Herein, we review mechanisms regulating cerebral blood flow (CBF), with specific focus on
humans. We revisit important concepts from the older literature and describe the interaction …

Neurovascular coupling reflects the close temporal and regional linkage between neural
activity and cerebral blood flow. Although providing mechanistic insight, our understanding …

The response of cerebral vasculature to exercise is different from other peripheral
vasculature; it has a small vascular bed and is strongly regulated by cerebral autoregulation …

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) and its distribution are highly sensitive to changes in the partial
pressure of arterial CO2 (PaCO2). This physiological response, termed cerebrovascular …

Heat stress increases human morbidity and mortality compared to normothermic conditions.
Many occupations, disease states, as well as stages of life are especially vulnerable to the …

Understanding the contribution of the autonomic nervous system to cerebral blood flow
(CBF) control is challenging, and interpretations are unclear. The identification of calcium …

Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is integral to the delicate process of maintaining stable
cerebral perfusion and brain tissue oxygenation against changes in arterial blood pressure …

Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is a critical process for the maintenance of cerebral blood flow
and oxygenation. Assessment of CA is frequently used for experimental research and in the …

Heat stress, whether passive (ie exposure to elevated environmental temperatures) or via
exercise, results in pronounced cardiovascular adjustments that are necessary for adequate …

Ageing is the primary risk factor for cognitive deterioration. Given that the cerebral blood flow
(CBF) or regulation of cerebral circulation is attenuated in the elderly, it could be expected …
