The effect of HRT on cerebral haemodynamics and cerebral vasomotor reactivity in post-menopausal women.
BACKGROUND Cerebral vasomotor reactivity (CVR) is an index of cerebrovascular dilatory capacity which can readily be assessed using trans-cranial Doppler ultrasound. Impaired CVR is associated with elevated risk of stroke. We performed a randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled trial to investigate the effect of two HRT preparations upon CVR. METHODS We examined middle cerebral artery mean...
متن کاملCerebral hypercapnia-induced vasomotor reactivity in migraine with and without aura: a case-control study
Abstract Background: Dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system has long been a subject of considerable debate and a large number of studies have disclosed contradictory results. The aim of this study was to compare cerebral vasomotor reactivity in migraine with aura (MWA) patients with migraine without aura (MWO) ones. Methods: Ten MWA patients (7 females and 3 males mean age: 39.70 years, S...
متن کاملCortical neuromodulation modifies cerebral vasomotor reactivity.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral vasomotor reactivity (VMR) is a capability of cerebral vessels to dilate in response to hypercapnia. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) effects on cerebral hemodynamics have been poorly studied. METHODS Ten healthy subjects underwent anodal/cathodal tDCS on the left motor cortex. Before and after tDCS, VMR assessment by transcranial Doppler and an e...
متن کاملEvaluation of Salivary Flow Rate, pH and Buffer in Pre, Post & Post Menopausal Women on HRT.
BACKGROUND Climateric is considered to be a natural phase of life which by definition is the period of life starting from decline in ovarian activity until after the end of ovarian function. It is accompanied by various health consequences that include the changes in saliva too. This study was carried out to evaluate the salivary flow rate, pH, buffering capacity in pre-menopausal, post-menopau...
متن کاملCerebral vasomotor reactivity and risk of mortality: the Rotterdam Study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Accumulating vascular pathology in cerebral arteries leads to impaired cerebral vasomotor reactivity. In turn, impaired cerebral vasomotor reactivity is a risk factor for stroke in clinical populations. It remains unclear whether impaired cerebral vasomotor reactivity also reflects more systemic vascular damage. We investigated whether cerebral vasomotor reactivity is ass...
