An investigation to the prolonged requirement (>7 days) of vasopressors in cervical spinal cord injury patients—a retrospective analysis
Study designRetrospective chart review.
ObjectivesThe primary aim was to identify the number of patients requiring vasopressors beyond the first...

Respiratory muscle endurance training improves exercise performance but does not affect resting blood pressure and sleep in healthy active elderly
PurposeAgeing is associated with increased blood pressure (BP), reduced sleep, decreased pulmonary function and exercise capacity. The main purpose...

Correlation Between Renin Angiotensin System and Infectious Disease
The renin- angiotensin system (RAS) is a physiological system that through a cascade of mediators and different mechanisms is able to regulate...

The impact of age, sex, cardio-respiratory fitness, and cardiovascular disease risk on dynamic cerebral autoregulation and baroreflex sensitivity
BackgroundHumans display an age-related decline in cerebral blood flow and increase in blood pressure (BP), but changes in the underlying control...
