Attenuated pulsatile transition to the cerebral vasculature during high-intensity interval exercise in young healthy men.

ABSTRACT:

New findings

What is the central question of this study? High-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) is recommended for its favourable haemodynamic stimulation, but excessive haemodynamic fluctuations may stress the brain: is the cerebral vasculature protected against exaggerated systemic blood flow fluctuation during HIIE? What is the main finding and its importance? Time- and frequency-domain indices of aortic-cerebral pulsatile transition were lowered during HIIE. The findings suggest that the arterial system to the cerebral vasculature may attenuate pulsatile transition during HIIE as a defence mechanism against pulsatile fluctuation for the cerebral vasculature.

High-intensity interval exercise (HIIE) is recommended because it provides favourable haemodynamic stimu
