DOI: 10.1097/prs.0000000000009457
Abstract: Background: Previous studies have attempted to explain age-related changes to the orbit in isolation, often producing conflicting results. The authors used highly accurate imaging software to analyze computed tomographic scans to characterize changes related to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1152/physiol.2023.38.s1.5731929
Abstract: Background: Activation of the sympathetic nervous system causes vasoconstriction and an acute reduction in peripheral blood flow. However, during hypoxia, sympathetically-mediated vasoconstriction is attenuated in young females without obesity. Given sustained increases in sympathetic activity… read more here.
