INTRODUCTION: Cold limb immersion, a form of cryotherapy, can cause cardiovascu-lar changes due to cold-pain induced autonomic reflex. OBJECTIVE: This cryotherapy treatment side-effect has received less attention, and could...

Descripción:
Bradykinin, a local dermal kallikrein-kinin system product, increases skin blood flow via a cyclic GMP mechanism but is not the active cutaneous vasodilation molecule associated with cholinergic stimulation. However, the...
Introduction: In 2012, approximately 19 million adults in the U.S. used some form of manipulative treatment as part of their overall healthcare. Suboccipital release (SOR) is a commonly used manual medicine technique of the...
1.0°C. Arm and leg SkBF (laser-Doppler flowmetry) was decreased by engaging the venoarteriolar response (limb lowered ~30 cm from heart level; CVAR), venoarteriolar response plus a decrease in perfusion pressure (venous...
30 cm from heart level; CVAR), venoarteriolar response plus a decrease in perfusion pressure (venous occlusion by proximal cuff inflation; CVAR with DPP), and ischemia (arterial occlusion by proximal cuff inflation) and sweat...
Cold-induced vasodilation (CIVD) is a phenomenon involving a counterintuitive increase in skin blood flow during cold exposure. Although CIVD was first described in 1930, CIVD mechanisms remain unknown. CIVD research has...

Descripción:
Sympathetic-like axon reflexes drive the initial increase in blood flow of the biphasic cutaneous vasodilation response of non-glabrous skin to local heating. It is currently unknown whether this process is involved in the...

30-60 min. Changes in SkBF spectral power in VLF and LF ranges from baseline to heating were determined using fast-Fourrier transform. Both groups increased spectral power within both the VLF and LF ranges. Compared to healthy...
