Ophthalmoscopic abnormalities in adults with falciparum malaria. (1/956)

We studied 424 adults with falciparum malaria admitted over 28 months. They were divided into three groups: cerebral malaria (n = 214); severe non-cerebral malaria (n = 58); and uncomplicated malaria (n = 152). Fundus examination was done daily from admission to discharge, and weekly thereafter in those with persistent changes. All patients were treated by a protocol based on WHO guidelines. Ophthalmoscopic abnormalities were: retinal haemorrhages, 40 (9.43%) (25 cerebral malaria, 10 severe non-cerebral and five uncomplicated malaria); papilloedema, 17 (7.94%) cerebral malaria and two uncomplicated malaria; blurring of disc margins, 25 (11.68%) cerebral and seven non-cerebral; retinal oedema, six (2.80%) cerebral and five non-cerebral malaria; disc pallor, five patients all with cerebral malaria; vitreous haemorrhage and hard exudate in one patient each, both cerebral malaria. Retinal haemorrhage was associated with cerebral malaria and severe non-cerebral malaria, especially with severe anaemia (p < 0.001), as compared to uncomplicated malaria (p < 0.01). The association of papilloedema and cerebral malaria was highly significant compared to severe non-cerebral malaria (p < 0.001). None of these findings was associated with statistically significant mortality, except disc pallor in cerebral malaria (p < 0.05).  (+info)

Endothelial function in Marfan syndrome: selective impairment of flow-mediated vasodilation. (2/956)

BACKGROUND: The cardiovascular complications of Marfan syndrome arise due to alterations in the structural and functional properties of fibrillin, a constituent of vascular connective tissues. Fibrillin-containing microfibrils are closely associated with arterial endothelial cells, indicating a possible functional role for fibrillin in the endothelium. Plasma concentrations of endothelial cell products are elevated in Marfan subjects, which indirectly indicates endothelial dysfunction. This study directly assessed flow- and agonist-mediated endothelium-dependent brachial artery reactivity in Marfan subjects. METHODS AND RESULTS: In 20 Marfan and 20 control subjects, brachial artery diameter, blood flow, and blood pressure were measured by ultrasonic wall tracking, Doppler ultrasound, and photoplethysmography, respectively. Measurements were taken during hand hyperemia (a stimulus for endothelium-derived nitric oxide [NO] release in the upstream brachial artery) and after sublingual administration of the endothelium-independent vasodilator nitroglycerin. In 9 Marfan and 6 control subjects, the above parameters were also assessed during intra-arterial infusions of acetylcholine and bradykinin (agonists that stimulate NO production) and NG-monomethyl-L-arginine (L-NMMA, an inhibitor of NO production). Flow-mediated responses differed markedly between Marfan and control subjects (-1.6+/-3.5% versus 6. 50+/-4.1%, respectively; P<0.0001), whereas nitroglycerin produced similar vasodilation (14.2+/-5.7% versus 15.2+/-7.8%; P=NS). Agonist-induced vasodilation to incremental intra-arterial infusions of acetylcholine and bradykinin were not significantly different between Marfan and control subjects, and intra-arterial L-NMMA produced similar reductions in brachial artery diameter in both groups. CONCLUSIONS: These data demonstrate impaired flow-mediated but preserved agonist-mediated endothelium-dependent vasodilation in Marfan subjects and suggest preservation of basal NO release. Selective loss of flow-mediated dilation suggests a role for fibrillin in endothelial cell mechanotransduction.  (+info)

Trigeminal and carotid body inputs controlling vascular resistance in muscle during post-contraction hyperaemia in cats. (3/956)

1. In anaesthetized cats, the effects of stimulation of the receptors in the nasal mucosa and carotid body chemoreceptors on vascular resistance in hindlimb skeletal muscle were studied to see whether the responses were the same in active as in resting muscle. The measurements of vascular resistance were taken, first, in resting muscle, and second, in the immediate post-contraction hyperaemic phase that followed a 30 s period of isometric contractions. 2. Stimulation of the receptors in the nasal mucosa caused reflex apnoea and vasoconstriction in muscle. The latter response was attenuated when the test was repeated during post-contraction hyperaemia. 3. Stimulations of the carotid bodies were made during a period of apnoea evoked reflexly by electrical stimulation of both superior laryngeal nerves. This apnoea prevented any effects of changes in respiration on the carotid body reflex vascular responses. Stimulation of the carotid bodies evoked hindlimb muscle vasoconstriction. In the post-contraction hyperaemic period, the response was reduced or abolished. A similar attenuation of the reflex vasoconstrictor responses occurred in decentralized muscles stimulated through their motor roots in the cauda equina. 4. Evidence is presented that the attenuation of the vasoconstrictor responses evoked by the two reflexes is a phenomenon localized to the contracting muscles themselves resulting from an interaction between sympathetic neuronal activity and the local production of metabolites. 5. The results are discussed in relation to the metabolic needs of tissues in relation to asphyxial defence mechanisms such as occur in the diving response.  (+info)

Neurogenic origin of articular hyperemia in early degenerative joint disease. (4/956)

It has been speculated that joint instability resulting from anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture could be exacerbated by changes in vasomotor activity in the remaining supporting structures. In this study, the effect of ACL transection on medial collateral ligament (MCL) basal perfusion and its responsiveness to calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and sympathetic adrenergic influences was examined. Using urethan-anesthetized rabbits, we tested the effects of CGRP and its antagonist CGRP-(8-37) by topical application of these agents to the exposed knee while sympathetic influences were tested by electrically stimulating the saphenous nerve. It was found that MCL basal perfusion was elevated in ACL-sectioned joints; however, this effect was abrogated by prior resection of the articular nerve supply. At the doses tested, the normal vasodilator response to CGRP was abolished in ACL-sectioned joints, whereas the response to CGRP-(8-37) was attenuated. Even under the influence of increased constrictor tone, MCL and capsule blood vessels still showed substantially reduced responses to exogenous CGRP administration. By contrast, nerve-mediated constrictor responses were mostly unaffected by joint instability. This study suggests that posttraumatic knee joint hyperemia is neurogenically mediated, possibly by increased secretion of CGRP.  (+info)

Endothelial function is impaired in fit young adults of low birth weight. (5/956)

OBJECTIVE: Non-insulin-dependent diabetes, hypertension and ischaemic heart disease, with insulin resistance, are associated with low birth weight (the 'Small Baby Syndrome'). Common to these adult clinical conditions is endothelial dysfunction. We tested the hypothesis that endothelial dysfunction could precede their development in those of low birth weight. METHODS: Endothelial function was measured by ultrasonic 'wall-tracking' of flow-related brachial artery dilatation in fit 19-20 year old subjects randomly selected (blind to the investigators throughout the study) from low (< 2.5 kg) and normal (3.0-3.8 kg) birth weight subjects in the 1975-7 cohort of the Cardiff Births Survey and with no known cause for endothelial dysfunction. RESULTS: Flow-related dilatation was impaired in low birth weight relative to normal birth weight subjects (median 0.04 mm [1.5%] [n = 22] cf. 0.11 mm [4.1%] [n = 17], p < 0.05; 0.04 mm [1.5%] [n = 15] cf. 0.12 mm [4.4%] [n = 12], p < 0.05 after exclusion of inadvertently included ever-smokers). CONCLUSION: The findings suggest that endothelial dysfunction is a consequence of foetal malnutrition, consistent with contributing to the clinical features of the 'Small Baby Syndrome' in later adult life.  (+info)

The association between laser Doppler reactive hyperaemia curves and the distribution of peripheral arterial disease. (6/956)

OBJECTIVES: To determine whether postocclusive laser Doppler fluxmetry (LDF) curves can be related to the arteriographic distribution of disease. DESIGN: Prospective study. MATERIALS: Sixty-nine patients with symptomatic peripheral ischaemia and 15 healthy subjects. METHODS: Laser Doppler fluxmetry (LDF) was monitored on the dorsum of the symptomatic foot following 2 min of arterial occlusion at the ankle. During reperfusion three patterns of LDF were identified (types I-III). All patients subsequently underwent arteriography which was reported independent of LDF results. The distribution of disease, particularly patency of below-knee vessels, was related to the type of LDF curve observed during reactive hyperaemia. RESULTS: Type I curves were observed in all healthy subjects and 75% of patients with a single arterial lesion. Type II curves were found in 78% of patients with multiple lesions above the knee. The presence of either a type I or II curve was associated with a continuous vessel from knee to ankle (positive predictive value 83%, p < 0.01), whilst type III curve was associated with discontinuous infrapopliteal run-off (positive predictive value 86%, p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: This pilot study suggests that post-occlusive LDF curves may identify the distribution of arterial disease and may be useful in the non-invasive management of peripheral ischaemia.  (+info)

Inhibition of phospholipase A2 attenuates functional hyperemia in the hamster cremaster muscle. (7/956)

Arachidonic acid (AA) is the common precursor for several vasodilatory factors involved in the local control of blood flow. This study was designed to determine the role of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and AA release in functional hyperemia in the hamster cremaster muscle. The muscle was prepared for in vivo microscopy and subjected to electrical field stimulation for 1 min. First- and second-order arterioles dilated in response from a mean diameter of 66 +/- 5 to 88 +/- 7 micrometer (n = 6). PLA2 was then inhibited with quinacrine (3 x 10(-6) M) for 60 min. PLA2 inhibition was verified by an attenuation of thrombin-induced vasodilation (2 U/ml). Quinacrine had no effect on resting arteriolar diameter but completely abolished functional hyperemia. Quinacrine also had no effect on dilation induced by superfusion of the preparation with 3 x 10(-6)-10(-5) M AA, 10(-6)-10(-4) M adenosine, or 10(-6)-10(-4) M sodium nitroprusside, ruling out nonspecific effects of quinacrine on smooth muscle contractility. These results indicate that functional hyperemia in the hamster cremaster muscle is dependent on PLA2 activation and the availability of AA.  (+info)

Abnormalities of vascular endothelial function may contribute to increased coronary heart disease risk in UK Indian Asians. (8/956)

OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that abnormalities of endothelial function are present in Indian Asians and may contribute to their increased coronary heart disease risk. SETTING: Single centre in west London. PATIENTS: 26 Indian Asian and 18 European white healthy male subjects, aged 35 to 61 years recruited from general practice lists. DESIGN: Brachial artery diameter responses to reactive hyperaemia and sublingual glyceryl trinitrate were compared using high resolution ultrasound. RESULTS: Mean (SEM) flow mediated, endothelium dependent dilatation was reduced in Indian Asians compared with European whites, at 3.2 (0.8)% v 5.9 (1.0)%, p = 0.03. In contrast, there were no significant differences in baseline brachial arterial diameter (4.6 (0.1) v 4.6 (0.1) mm, p = 0.65) or glyceryl trinitrate induced dilatation (18.8 (1.5)% v 18.5 (1.7)%, p = 0.90) between Indian Asians and European whites, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that Indian Asian race was significantly associated with impaired flow mediated dilatation (regression coefficient = -2.8 (1.3)%, p = 0.03), and in multivariate analysis, this relation was independent of both conventional coronary heart disease risk factors and markers of insulin resistance. CONCLUSIONS: Endothelial function is impaired in healthy UK Indian Asians compared with European whites, and the defect is not accounted for by major coronary heart disease risk factors. Endothelial function may be modulated by novel risk factors in Indian Asians.  (+info)

Left coronary artery inflow was recorded in the dog heart-lung preparation by means of a Gregg cannula and a Shipley-Wilson recording rotameter. Reactive hyperemia (RH) was induced by 10-second occlusions. The excess blood flow after release was quantified by planimetry and related to the blood flow debt incurred during the period of occlusion. In the normothermic heart, the excess coronary flow was 431% of the flow debt. At heart temperatures of 30 and 25.6° C, it dropped to 228% and 143% respectively. There was shortening of the duration of reactive hyperemia and reduction of peak flow at lower temperatures. These results were discussed in the light of chemical theories of the mechanism of reactive hyperemia and the effect of hypothermia thereon.. ...
Lipoprotein phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) is an emerging inflammatory marker with prognostic value. Reactive hyperemia peripheral arterial tonometry (RH-PAT) is a method to assess peripheral microvascular endothelial function and is linked to coronary microvascular endothelial dysfunction. We investigated the association of Lp-PLA2 with RH-PAT, coronary flow reserve (CFR), and carotid intimal media thickness in CAD patients. Methods: Using RH-PAT, digital pulse volume changes during reactive hyperemia were assessed in 43 patients with angiographically documented CAD. RH-PAT index, a measure of reactive hyperemia, was calculated as the ratio of the digital pulse volume during reactive hyperemia divided by that at baseline using the Endo-PAT apparatus. Coronary flow reserve (CFR) of the LAD after adenosine infusion was assessed using Doppler echocardiography.The mean intima-media thickness (IMT) in common carotids and carotid bulbs using ultrasound imaging was also measured According to the values of ...
Introduction: Drug-eluting stents (DESs) are replacing bare-metal stents (BMSs), but in-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a problem. Impaired endothelial function is a key event in the atherosclerosis process and a predictor of future cardiovascular events. Reactive hyperemia index (RHI) assessed by peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT) evaluates endothelial function noninvasively.. Hypothesis: We prospectively assessed the prognostic value of RHI in predicting ISR after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).. Methods: RHI was measured using Endo-PAT 2000 before PCI (initial RHI) and at follow-up angiography (F/U RHI) in 249 consecutive patients who had successful PCI. F/U angiography was performed at six and nine months after PCI with BMS and DES, respectively. ISR was defined as percent diameter stenosis ,50% at F/U angiography assessed by quantitative coronary angiography.. Results: At F/U, ISR was seen in 68 patients (27.3%). F/U ln(RHI) was significantly lower in patients with ISR than in ...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of short term atorvastatin treatment on forearm vasodilatory response to reactive hyperaemia (RH%) and on components of the thrombosis-fibrinolysis system (antithrombin III, proteins and S, factors V and VII, von Willebrand factor, tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1)) in patients with heart failure. PATIENTS AND METHODS: 35 patients with heart failure were enrolled in this study; 17 patients received atorvastatin 10 mg/day and 18 patients received no statin for four weeks. Forearm blood flow (FBF) was measured by venous occlusion strain gauge plethysmography. RH% and forearm vasodilatory response to nitrate were defined as the percentage change of FBF from rest to the maximum flow during reactive hyperaemia and after nitrate administration, respectively. Plasma concentrations of antithrombin III, protein C, protein S, factor V, factor VII, von Willebrand factor, tPA, and PAI-1 were determined before and after treatment.
OBJECTIVE: To examine the effect of vitamin C on forearm vasodilatory response to reactive hyperemia and on plasma level of plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1), von Willebrand factor (vWF), tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), antithrombin III (ATIII), proteins C and S, and factors V (fV) and VII (fVII) in patients with both type 2 diabetes and CAD. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: A total of 39 patients with type 2 diabetes and CAD were divided into two groups and received vitamin C (2 g/day) or no antioxidant for 4 weeks. Forearm blood flow was determined using venous occlusion gauge-strain plethysmography at baseline and after treatment. Forearm vasodilatory response to reactive hyperemia (RH%) or nitrate (NTG%) was defined as the percent change of flow from baseline to the maximum flow during reactive hyperemia or after administration of nitrate, respectively. Biochemical markers were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) or other standard methods. RESULTS: RH% was significantly

Synonyms for constriction hyperemia in Free Thesaurus. Antonyms for constriction hyperemia. 1 synonym for hyperemia: hyperaemia. What are synonyms for constriction hyperemia?
In this prospective study, older age, more invasive (noncarotid) surgery, and lower hyperemic flow velocity in the brachial artery predicted cardiovascular events in a high risk group of patients with peripheral arterial disease referred for surgery. When hyperemic flow velocity, a measure of microvascular function, flow-mediated dilation, a measure of conduit artery function, and other risk factors were included in the same multivariable model, both measures of vascular function were significant predictors, although flow-mediated dilation was the stronger predictor of risk. These findings suggest that microvascular and conduit artery vasodilator function provide incremental information about cardiovascular risk, and that both may relate to the pathogenesis of cardiovascular events.. Reactive hyperemia is a fundamental homeostatic response of the vasculature that serves to accelerate oxygen delivery to tissues following a period of ischemia. Hyperemic blood flow peaks within a few seconds after ...

Methods 116 consecutive patients clinically diagnosed with AMI received evaluation of vascular endothelial function using PAT technique within 72 h of admission, reactive hyperaemia index (RHI) was calculated. By the cut point of normal RHI (1.67) patients were divided into the normal endothelial function group (RHI ,=1.67) and the endothelial dysfunction group (RHI,1.67), follow-up of MACE was conducted in both groups during hospitalisation (median value 8.0 days) and after discharge from hospital (243.8±68.3 days). MACE included cardiac death, recurrent acute myocardial infarction, recurrent unstable angina during hospitalisation, ischaemic stroke, elective PCI or CABG, and hospitalisation due to cardiovascular causes.. ...
It remains controversial which of the two regulators, red blood cell velocity (RBC-V) or concentration (RBC-C), is a main contributor to increasing flow (RBC-F) during functional hyperemia in the rat hippocampus induced by ,i,N,/i,-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA). To address this, we monitored these parameters simultaneously under NMDA-infusion via microdialysis in the hippocampus of urethane-anesthetized rats and found a greater elevation in RBC-V than in RBC-C. This suggests that an RBC-V-dependent increase in RBC-F occurs under NMDA-induced functional hyperemia in the hippocampus as well as in the cortex.,br,. ...
Endothelial and microvascular function are important elements of overall cardiovascular health. Dysfunction in either or both is predictive of future cardiovascular events, thus preventing or minimizing the degree of dysfunction is critical to constraining the risk of such events. Reactive hyperemia is a transient increase in blood flow that occurs following a period of ischemia (e.g. arterial occlusion) and is indicative of microvascular health. Regular physical exercise is critical as a preventive measure in maintaining the capacity for reactive hyperemia; however, consistent dedication to regular exercise regimens is difficult or impossible for some people. Recent evidence suggests that chronic passive heat therapy (CHT) may result in improvements to cardiovascular health similar to that of exercise. PURPOSE: To examine the effects of 8 weeks of CHT on forearm post-occlusive reactive hyperemia. METHODS: Five, young, healthy and able-bodied university students (21 ± 1 years) underwent hot water
It is widely accepted that the coronary flow reserve is lower in subendocardium than in subepicardium.7 When coronary perfusion pressure is reduced stepwise while keeping myocardial oxygen demand constant, autoregulation is maintained, and transmural flow remains almost constant. As the pressure is lowered further, subendocardial flow decreases first, and a decrease in subepicardial flow reserve follows.5 Why is the coronary flow reserve in subendocardium lower than in subepicardium? The one possible reason is the difference in the vasodilatory responses between two layers. However, the present study demonstrated that the percent diameter change at peak reactive hyperemic flow was greater in subendocardial arterioles than in subepicardial arterioles (see Fig 3⇑). Thus, the hypothesis that decreased subendocardial flow reserve may be due to decreased vascular reactivity was shown to be unfounded. If anything, the vascular responses increased, perhaps in an attempt to compensate for the imposed ...

AU - Stehouwer, Coen D.A.. PY - 2007/9/1. Y1 - 2007/9/1. N2 - OBJECTIVE: Generalized microvascular dysfunction may contribute to the development of salt sensitivity, insulin resistance and hypertension, and may thus link these cardiovascular risk factors. To test this hypothesis, we examined skin microvascular function, salt sensitivity, insulin sensitivity and blood pressure in 27 normotensive and 26 hypertensive individuals. METHODS: Capillary density was examined by videomicroscopy during venous congestion and postocclusive reactive hyperaemia. Endothelium-(in)dependent vasodilation was assessed by iontophoresis of acetylcholine and sodium nitroprusside and by laser Doppler flowmetry. Salt sensitivity was determined as the difference in mean arterial pressure (MAP) between a 1-week high-salt diet ...
In the present study, the novel KATP channel antagonist HMR 1402 did not alter the cardiac action potential under control conditions but significantly attenuated the shortening of the APD90 induced either by the KATP channel agonist rilmakalim or by hypoxia. In a similar manner, the same concentration of this drug that attenuated these reductions in APD90 did not inhibit the activation of pancreatic or coronary vascular KATP channels in vitro. In conscious dogs, HMR 1402 prevented ischemically induced ventricular fibrillation without altering the increases in mean coronary blood flow induced either by submaximal exercise or by the reactive hyperemic response to brief (15-s) coronary artery occlusions. These findings were in marked contrast to glibenclamide that provoked large reductions in coronary blood flow (Billman et al., 1993, 1998). Finally, HMR 1402, in contrast to glibenclamide (Billman et al., 1998), did not alter plasma insulin concentrations. When considered together, these data ...
TY - JOUR. T1 - Na+-induced intestinal interstitial hyperosmolality and vascular responses during absorptive hyperemia. AU - Bohlen, H.. PY - 1982. Y1 - 1982. N2 - The coupled active transport of Na+ with sugars and amino acids could cause intestinal villus interstitial hyperosmolarity, which contributes to absorptive hyperemia. However, for the villus hyperosmolarity to cause a major vascular response, a mild-to-moderate hyperosmolarity must occur in the vicinity of the major resistance vessels of the submucosa. Interstitial Na+ activity was measured throughout the small intestinal wall of rats with monensin ion-selective electrodes during glucose absorption. In the upper half of villi, the resting [Na+] was 201 ± 5 (SE) mM and increased to 267 ± 6 mM during luminal exposure to 25-300 mg/100 ml glucose. The submucosal resting [Na+] was 144 ± 1 mM and increased to 177 ± 3 mM during luminal glucose exposure. The time courses of Na+ appearance and submucosal arterial dilatation were almost ...
The regulation of CBF in response to neuronal metabolic demand is a dynamic and tightly regulated process. Given that neuronal metabolism relies almost exclusively on oxidative metabolism, all normal function, from control of motor activity to cognitive ability and memory acquisition, requires adequate delivery of oxygenated blood. The cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying this coupling of neuronal metabolism to CBF remain poorly understood. Metabolic regulation of CBF is thought to involve release of vasoactive metabolites in response to neuronal activity. Numerous studies over the past decade have implicated modulation of ion channels by several diverse stimuli as one of the principal transduction processes responsible for defining the activation state of cerebral arteriolar muscle and thereby adjusting blood flow to meet metabolic demand. Very recently, studies from a number of laboratories, including our own, have defined a predominant role for metabolites of AA in controlling ion ...

The ratio of oxidized lipoprotein(a) to native lipoprotein(a) (oxLp(a)/Lp(a)) may be a reasonable index for assessing endothelial dysfunction in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The present study investigated whether the oxLp(a)/Lp(a) level is correlated with the endothelial function using the Endo-PATTM, a newly developed device, in patients with T2DM. A total of 63 patients with T2DM (mean age: 59 years old) were enrolled in the study. The patients serum Lp(a) and oxLp(a) levels were measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The reactive hyperemia index (RHI) level was measured using an Endo-PATTM 2000. A correlation analysis between the measured variables was conducted. Among the patients, the mean hemoglobin A1c was 7.8%. The median level of oxLp(a)/Lp(a) was 0.28 (interquartile range: 0.07-0.54), and the mean RHI was 1.8 (standard deviation: 0.4). In a multiple linear regression analysis, the oxLp(a)/Lp(a) level was an independent, significant, and inverse variable for the RHI ...

MUSIC] Our previous talk was about normal conditions, how it is structured and regulated in health. Now about disease. There are three major typical pathological processes in microcirculation system. These are hyperaemia, ischaemia, and stasis. And all of them can occur separately, or as mosaic elements within a structure of bigger, more complicated pathological processes. For example, hyperaemia and stasis are embedded, as elements, into the structure of inflammation. Or for example, in thrombosis of arteriolae, a person is going to have ischaemia. In thrombosis of venulae, a person is going to have venous hyperaemia, and so on. So three major, typical pathological processes. Hyperaemia, local increase of blood supply and/or blood content in organ or in portion of tissue. Ischemia, local decrease of blood supply and blood content in organ or tissue portion. Stasis, local stop of blood flow in vessels, obligatory and within vessels. Here you can see the principle drawing of normal circulation, ...

Intercellular waves of calcium (Ca2+) are an important signalling mechanism in a wide variety of cells within the body, crucial for cellular coordination and control. In particular the Ca2+ concentration within smooth muscle cells (SMCs) lining the blood vessel walls controls the cell dilation and contraction and thus the vessel radius. The process of functional hyperaemia by which neuronal activity results in a localised response of increased blood ow via the dilation of SMCs is associated with multiple pathologies such as cortical spreading depression (CSD). This process can be modelled by a `neurovascular unit (NVU) containing a neuron, astrocyte, and the SMC and endothelial cell (EC) within the vessel wall. Our research consists of modelling the Ca2+ dynamics of a both a single SMC and two coupled SMCs (via an intercellular Ca2+ ux) mainly with the minimal nonspatial Goldbeter et al. (1990) cell model. This is compared with the more complex model of a SMC/EC `unit which also includes the ...
In young women, superimposing CPT on FMD resulted in 1) a significant dilation during occlusion and reduction in peak diameter (Fig. 3), 2) an alteration in the postocclusion SR profile (Fig. 5) and 3) an ∼20% decrease in normalized popliteal FMD, when data were calculated relative to occlusion (Fig. 6). When FMD was calculated relative to rest, normalized FMD was not significantly influenced by adrenergic stimulation in young women. By contrast, popliteal dilation estimated relative to rest or occlusion was not significantly blunted in older women after superimposition of CPT on FMD (Fig. 6). These findings underscore the importance of analyzing FMD with respect to both resting and occlusion diameters since changes in conduit artery diameter during occlusion occur through different mechanisms as those evoked by reactive hyperemia and may affect estimation and assessment of endothelium-dependent dilation. Additionally, the application of CPT on FMD in the popliteal artery in young women did ...

Mr. Anderson above proposes that the pump mainly effects slow twitch oxidative fibers because of capilarization (no strength; just mass). Dr. Lowery suggests that not being able to get a pump is a sign of fatigue - this i think is important. BUT if we look at occlusion training (which reactive hyperemia seems to be a type), then the pump should also be affecting both fast and slow twitch fibers myofibral growth. Occlulusion, it seems, may indeed get fast twitch fibers involved more directly than without occlusion - thats a theory. Since we also see in low load occlusion training effects on strength: it goes up. SO is this kind of self-occlusion with self-selected low resistance weights to induce the effect having the same effect as a cuff? Could be - as per this review ...

The current study had some limitations. First, we did not clarify the detailed molecular mechanism of how retinal glial cells regulate RBF in response to flicker stimulation. Although we recently found possible involvement of the retinal NO derived from nNOS in flicker-induced hyperemia in the retina in anesthetized cats,26 the current findings that L-NPA further reduced flicker-induced hyperemia in the retina after LAA treatment may indicate that NO derived from nNOS in retinal neurons and retinal glial cells may be involved in the flicker-induced hyperemia in the retina. In addition, although it was suggested that one particular mechanism of neurovascular coupling in which glial cells release vasodilatory PGE2 and/or EETs as the arachidonic acid metabolites produced by cyclooxygenase (COX) is a principal and perhaps dominant mechanism mediating functional hyperemia in the retina,5 we did not examine the role of these molecules in flicker-induced hyperemia in the retina because there is no ...

AU - Roman, Richard J.. AU - Harder, David R.. AU - Koehler, Raymond C. PY - 2008/8. Y1 - 2008/8. N2 - Nitric oxide (NO) modulates vasodilation in cerebral cortex during sensory activation. NO is known to inhibit the synthesis of 20-HETE, which has been implicated in arteriolar constriction during astrocyte activation in brain slices. We tested the hypothesis that the attenuated cerebral blood flow (CBF) response to whisker stimulation seen after NO synthase (NOS) inhibition requires 20-HETE synthesis and that the ability of an epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) antagonist to reduce the CBF response is blunted after NOS inhibition but restored with simultaneous blockade of 20-HETE synthesis. In anesthetized rats, the increase in CBF during whisker stimulation was attenuated after the blockade of neuronal NOS with ...
This thesis aims to evaluate the blood flow velocity in the Brachial artery during reactive hyperemia. Primarily to appraise the information it might contain regarding cardiovascular function and cardiovascular risk.. Ultrasonographic doppler measurements of the Brachial artery were made on the 1016 men and women aged 70 included in the prospective investigation of the vasculature in Uppsala seniors (PIVUS) study. Analysis of the blood flow velocity in the forearm was made in comparison to established methods of estimating endothelial function, clinical markers of cardiovascular risk, the Framingham risk score and global atherosclerosis determined by whole body magnetic resonance angiography.. Systolic blood flow velocity was positively related to cardiovascular risk whereas the diastolic velocity was inversely correlated. However, the systolic to diastolic blood flow velocity (SDFV) ratio was more closely associated with cardiovascular risk than its components apart.. Ultrasonographic markers ...

In the coronary circulation, angiography of coronary artery responses to vasoactive agents may be used to test for endothelial function, and venous occlusion plethysmography and ultrasonography are used to assess endothelial function of peripheral vessels in humans.[3]. A non-invasive method to measure endothelial dysfunction is % Flow-Mediated Dilation (FMD) as measured by Brachial Artery Ultrasound Imaging (BAUI).[6] Current measurements of endothelial function via FMD vary due to technical and physiological factors. Furthermore, a negative correlation between percent flow mediated dilation and baseline artery size is recognised as a fundamental scaling problem, leading to biased estimates of endothelial function.[7]. A non-invasive, FDA-approved device for measuring endothelial function that works by measuring Reactive Hyperemia Index (RHI) is Itamar Medicals EndoPAT™.[8][9] It has shown an 80% sensitivity and 86% specificity to diagnose coronary artery disease when compared against the ...
Atrial fibrillation (AF) and hypertension often co-exist and both are associated with endothelial dysfunction. We hypothesised that AF would further worsen endothelium-dependent flow-mediated dilatation (FMD) in hypertension patients compared to those without AF. In a cross-sectional comparison, we measured brachial artery diameter at rest and during reactive hyperaemia following 5 min of arterial occlusion in two patient groups: AF (and hypertension) (n = 61) and hypertension control groups (n = 33). The AF (and hypertension) subgroups: permanent AF (n = 30) and paroxysmal AF (n = 31) were also assessed. The permanent AF patients received heart rate and blood pressure (BP) control optimisation and were then followed up after eight weeks for repeat FMD testing. There was no significant difference in FMD between AF (and hypertension) group and hypertension control group (4.6%, 95% CI [2.6-5.9%] vs 2.6%, 95% CI [1.9-5.3%]; p = 0.25). There was a significant difference in FMD between permanent AF ...
Recent studies have revealed that functional hyperemia is initiated in capillaries (14, 15) and that RBCs themselves can act as oxygen-sensing regulators to control capillary RBC velocity in response to local PO2 changes (15). However, the underlying mechanisms of how PO2 could modulate RBC velocity in capillaries are unknown. Experimental findings presented here implicate that deoxyHb-band 3 interactions in RBCs are the molecular switch that responds to local PO2 changes and controls RBC deformability and consequently RBC capillary velocity. Evidently, we showed that (i) while ex vivo capillary velocity and deformation of mRBC-WT and mRBC-subst 1-35 exhibited a linear relation with local PO2 changes, RBCs from transgenic mice that had enhanced or weakened deoxyHb-band 3 interactions showed capillary velocity and deformation independent of PO2. RBCs with enhanced deoxyHb-band 3 interactions showed higher capillary velocity and deformability compared to RBCs that had weakened deoxyHb-band 3 ...
BACKGROUND: Individuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, partly due to systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction. B-cells play an important pathogenic role in the inflammatory process that drives RA disease activity. Rituximab, a chimeric murine/human monoclonal antibody that depletes B-cells, is an effective therapy for RA. The purpose of this study was to determine whether B-cell depletion with rituximab reduces systemic inflammation and improves macrovascular (brachial artery flow-mediated dilation, FMD) and microvascular (reactive hyperemia) endothelial function in RA patients.. METHODS AND RESULTS: RA patients received a single course of rituximab (1000 mg IV infusion at baseline and on day 15). FMD, reactive hyperemia, inflammatory markers, and clinical assessments were performed at baseline, week 12, and week 24. Twenty patients (95% female, median age 54 years) completed the study. Following treatment, FMD improved from a baseline ...

BMC Nephrol. 2016 Jul 13;17(1):82. [Skin] Microvascular endothelial dysfunction is associated with albuminuria and CKD in older adults. Seliger SL, Salimi S, Pierre V, Giffuni J, Katzel L, Parsa A. Abstract. BACKGROUND: Impairment in glomerular endothelial function likely plays a major role in the development of albuminuria and CKD progression. Glomerular endothelial dysfunction may reflect systemic microvascular dysfunction, accounting in part for the greater cardiovascular risk in patients with albuminuria. Prior studies of vascular function in CKD have focused on conduit artery function or those with ESRD, and have not examined microvascular endothelial function with albuminuria.. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional study among older hypertensive male veterans with stage 1-4 CKD, and hypertensive controls without CKD. Microvascular function was quantified by two distinct Laser-Doppler flowmetry (LDF) measures: peak responses to 1) post-occlusive reactive hyperemia (PORH) and 2) thermal ...
Background: There is a growing interest in the application of non-invasive clinical tools allowing one to assess the endothelial function, preceding atherosclerosis. The precision in estimating of the artery Flow Mediated Vasodilation (FMD) using standard 10-12 MHz linear array probes does not exceed 0.2 mm, far beyond that required. Methods: We have introduced a wide-band, high frequency 25-30 MHz, Golay encoded wobbling type imaging to measure dilation of the radial artery instead of the brachial one. 18 young volunteers, and 4 volunteers with cardiac events history, were examined. In the second approach 20 MHz linear scanning combined with 20 MHz pulsed Doppler attached to the linear array was used. The radial artery FMD was normalized using shear rate at the radial artery wall. Results and Conclusions: For the healthy group, the FMD resulting from reactive hyperemia response was over 20%; while in the atherosclerotic group, the FMD was at least twice as small, not exceeding 10%. The ...

What is the central question of this study? Although heat stress is known to increase cardiovascular strain, no study, to date, had explored the potential impact of exercise-induced heat stress on vascular function. What is the main finding and its importance? We found that acute exercise tended to reduce flow-mediated dilatation (FMD), owing in part to reduced reactive hyperaemia/shear stimulus; thus, when FMD is normalized to shear no postexercise deficit exists. Exercise-induced heat stress increased reactive hyperaemia, shear rate, coupled with a sustained FMD postexercise, suggests that exercise-induced heat stress increases the amount of shear stimulus to elicit a similar response, indicating reduced vascular responsiveness, or reserve, which might increase cardiovascular susceptibility.
iFR remains a novel technology that offers an alternative to stenosis assessment using hyperemia. Classification match with fractional flow reserve, a hyperemic pressure-only index, is good but is not expected to be absolute because fractional flow reserve classification itself can differ when the index is close to its binary cutoff point (10,25). Studies such as the CLARIFY (Classification Accuracy of Pressure-Only Ratios Against Indices Using Flow Study) (7) and comparisons with positron emission tomography (26) have shown that it is possible in certain circumstances to reduce the iFR value with administration of vasodilator drugs. Previously this may have been considered a limitation of a baseline index; however, 5 recent studies (26-30) demonstrated that iFR has sufficient sensitivity to not differ in diagnostic ability compared with FFR or iFR with vasodilators such as adenosine. This challenges the need for maximal hyperemia during stenosis assessment.. This study should be interpreted as ...

Adenosine is a key metabolite involved in metabolic hyperemia in many vascular beds including coronary circulation, cerebral circulation, and skeletal muscle circulation.1 The roles of adenosine in vasculature are most prominent during hypoxia, ischemia, and reactive hyperemia.1 One important action of adenosine is to induce endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation.1-4 It is previously shown that, at least in some arteries, such as skeletal muscle arteries, a rise in [Ca2+]i is required for the endothelium-dependent vasorelaxation in response to adenosine.3-5 In the present study, we explored the possible role of CNG channels in adenosine-induced Ca2+ influx in vascular endothelial cells. Our results show that the adenosine-induced Ca2+ influx was markedly reduced by CNG-specific inhibitors L-cis-diltiazem and LY-83583 in H5V cells and in the primary cultured BAECs. Whole cell patch clamp recorded an adenosine-induced current that was sensitive to L-cis-diltiazem in both cell types. Furthermore, a ...
Researchers concluded that: (1) the protective activity of L-arginine involves gastric hyperemia (blood flow increase) mediated by NO (nitric oxide) and a mild irritant effect due to enhanced generation of endogenous prostaglandins, and (2) the ulcer healing properties of L-arginine depend upon its hyperemic and angiogenic actions, possibly involving NO..

Now, some details about venous or passive hyperaemia. Passive hyperaemia or venous congestion is increased blood supply to an organ or tissue due to reduced blood outflow through the veins. In venous congestion, blood velocity always decreases, decelerates. The etiology of venous congestion is related either to mechanical obstruction of blood flow in the veins. It can be thrombi or emboli, or it is resulted from external compression of the veins by ligation, by tumor, sometimes by pregnant uterus, if we speak about veins or abdominal cavity in pregnant women. It can be also some adhesions prevailing from normal venous outflow. And, here, you can see an illustration of the situation of total venous congestion in many vascular areas. It can occur in heart failure because of increase of venous pressure due to disorder of pumping functions, and it may occur simultaneously in many vascular beds, for example, with right heart failure or cor pulmonale. It may be observed in the greater circulation ...

Mental stress ischemia (MSI) is associated with poor prognosis for coronary artery disease (CAD) and is amenable to treatment, yet no easily administered test exists to diagnose it. Given the known increase in systemic vascular tone in response to stress, we studied the ability of peripheral arterial tonometry (PAT), a noninvasive functional measure of arterial tone, to predict those vulnerable to MSI. Seventy-seven patients with chronic stable CAD were subjected to mental stress with concomitant assessment of myocardial perfusion and pulse wave amplitude. Nuclear perfusion imaging was used to document MSI, and PAT was used to measure pulse wave and microarterial tone. A ratio of PAT measurements during stress to those before stress was used to characterize vascular responses. Serum catecholamines and endothelin-1 (ET-1) were simultaneously measured. Subjects who experienced MSI had a lower average PAT ratio than those who did not (0.76 ¡À 0.04 vs. 0.91 ¡À 0.05, P = 0.03). A receiver ...

Updated Weekly. There is one word this week that we have been hearing a great deal. Debt. Concerns are being expressed by many international development organisations about the potential for a debt crisis, especially given the World Banks gloomy update of its World Economic Prospects.. This week, we decided to investigate the debt question a little further, on behalf of our clients, analysts and investors, and work out what is really going on. What did we find?. First, our analysis reveals that we should be concerned right now about whether African countries have enough room in their budgets to pay for all the higher costs they are facing due to COVID19 - both in terms of the direct health costs and also the economic costs people and businesses are having to face because of the global slowdown in flows of trade, finance and people as well as social distancing. Our analysis shows that the total debt repayments owed by African countries in 2018 were 1.4 times larger than the budgets that African ...
Note: All figures are as published in the HYEFU or PREFU documents, and do not include GDP revisions This debt-to-GDP ratio targeted by the coalition government is at odds with its desire to undertake major investments in a large number of areas including conservation, health, education, and transport. It essentially stops them being able to pay for all of their promises. Increasing debt (or debt-to-GDP) is not necessarily a bad move: debt spreads the cost of capital items across time (and in doing so, spreads the cost across future taxpayers that will use the assets). The concept is often described as intergenerational equity. If debt repayments were slowed to allow for greater government spending, there would be no discernible effect on financial stability or credit ratings. We anticipate the coalition government will resist the urge to alter the BRRs until after the 2018 Budget. Over the next 12 months, calls for more spending in priority areas will increase, eventually forcing the ...
