The cold-induced vascular response, consisting of vasoconstriction followed by vasodilatation, is critical for protecting the cutaneous tissues against cold injury. Whilst this physiological ...

Vasoconstriction is a normal and complex process where blood vessels in your body narrow, restricting blood flow from an area. We discuss what’s happening and why it’s normal, what causes ...

Figure 1. An overview of the pathogenesis of migraine headache. According to vascular theory, vascular disturbances (vasodilatation–vasoconstriction) lead to migraine attacks through a cascade ...

Objective: To test the hypothesis that enhanced postexercise vasodilatation is related to sympathetic drive to resistance vessels and to fast marathon performance. Design: Prospective field study ...

LONDON, September 11 (SPIS MedWire). Elevated levels of serum C-reactive protein (CRP) - indicative of systemic inflammation - are associated with a blunted systemic endothelial vasodilatation, report ...
