Outline of Final Research Achievements |
From the standpoint of cerebrovascular diseases prevention, we sought useful assessment for pulsatility of cerebral hemodynamics by frequency-domain analysis in 14 healthy young men (Study 1), and elucidate physiological mechanisms responsible for carotid arterial distensibility in healthy men with wide age-range (18-64 yrs) (Study 2). In Study 1, pulsatile component of transfer function gain (between pulsatile aortic pressure and pulsatile cerebral blood flow velocity) was significantly enhanced by -30 mmHg of lower-body negative pressure, suggesting that moderate sympathetic nervous stimulation can manipulate pulsatile component of hemodynamic transmission. Results of Study 2 show that greater gradient of blood flow velocity during a cardiac cycle are favorably associated with distensibility of carotid artery, and that greater gradient of blood flow velocity is associated with higher aerobic capacity (e.g., maximal oxygen consumption).
