Journal ArticleDOI
Alterations in cerebral blood flow and cerebrovascular reactivity during 14 days at 5050 m
Samuel J. E. Lucas,Keith R. Burgess,Kate N. Thomas,Joseph Donnelly,Karen C. Peebles,Rebekah A. I. Lucas,Jui-Lin Fan,James D. Cotter,Rishi Basnyat,Philip N. Ainslie +9 more
TL;DR: The results show that the balance of oxygen (O2) and carbon dioxide (CO2) pressures in arterial blood explains 40% of the change in brain blood flow upon arrival at high altitude (5050 m).
Journal ArticleDOI
Worsening of central sleep apnea at high altitude—a role for cerebrovascular function
Keith R. Burgess,Samuel J. E. Lucas,Kelly L. Shepherd,Andrew H. Dawson,Marianne Swart,Kate N. Thomas,Rebekah A. I. Lucas,Joseph Donnelly,Karen C. Peebles,Rishi Basnyat,Rishi Basnyat,Philip N. Ainslie +11 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that elevations in CBF and its reactivity to CO(2) upon initial ascent to high altitude may provide a protective effect on the development of periodic breathing during sleep (likely via moderating changes in central Pco2).
Journal ArticleDOI
Initial Orthostatic Hypotension at High Altitude
Kate N. Thomas,Keith R. Burgess,Rishi Basnyat,Samuel J. E. Lucas,James D. Cotter,Jui-Lin Fan,Karen C. Peebles,Rebekah A. I. Lucas,Philip N. Ainslie +8 more
TL;DR: Initial cardiovascular and cerebrovascular responses to standing are unaltered when partially acclimatized to HA, suggesting that appropriate physiological adjustments to upright posture would be compromised at HA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of cerebral blood flow on central sleep apnea at high altitude.
Keith R. Burgess,Samuel J. E. Lucas,Kelly L. Shepherd,Andrew H. Dawson,Marianne Swart,Kate N. Thomas,Rebekah A. I. Lucas,Joseph Donnelly,Karen C. Peebles,Rishi Basnyat,Philip N. Ainslie +10 more
TL;DR: An important role for cerebral blood flow regulation in the pathophysiology of central sleep apnea at high altitude is indicated and tested the hypothesis that pharmacologically altering cerebralBlood flow (CBF) would alter the severity of CSA at high height.
Journal ArticleDOI
Manipulating cerebral blood flow affects central sleep apnoea at high altitude
Keith R. Burgess,Samuel J. E. Lucas,Kelly L. Shepherd,Andrew H. Dawson,Marianne Swart,Kate N. Thomas,J-L Fan,Rai Lucas,James D. Cotter,Karen C. Peebles,Rishi Basnyat,Phil Ainslie +11 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of altering cerebral blood flow (CBF) on central sleep apnoea (CSA) at high altitude were measured by 12 normal volunteers aged 30 ± 10 years.
