Abstract: Beta‐blockers are beneficial in coronary artery disease but less so in stroke prevention and dementia, potentially due to reduced heart rate (HR). Cerebral pulsatility is strongly associated with cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) and may… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00500.2020
Abstract: Cerebral pulsatility reflects a balance between the transmission and damping of pulsatility in the cerebrovasculature. Females experience greater cerebral pulsatility with aging which may have implications for sex differences in stroke risk and cognitive decline.… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.821151
Abstract: The central arteries dampen the pulsatile forces from myocardial contraction, limiting the pulsatility that reaches the cerebral vasculature, although there are limited data on this relationship with aging in humans. The purpose of this study… read more here.
