Article Synopsis
- Cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) measures how blood vessels respond to stimuli, with this study focusing on differences during the cardiac cycle rather than just average data.
- Involving 71 participants, techniques included assessing responses to increased and decreased CO2 levels, revealing that CVR was higher during systole while relative responses varied across diastole and systole.
- Results indicated that females showed stronger absolute CVR responses, particularly in certain cardiac phases, suggesting that sex-related biological factors may influence these vascular responses.
