Abstract
Numerous driven techniques have been utilized to assess dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA) in healthy and clinical populations. The current review aimed to amalgamate this literature and provide recommendations to create greater standardization for future research. The PubMed database was searched with inclusion criteria consisting of original research articles using driven dCA assessments in humans. Risk of bias were completed using Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network and Methodological Index for Non-Randomized Studies. Meta-analyses were conducted for coherence, phase, and gain metrics at 0.05 and 0.10 Hz using deep-breathing, oscillatory lower body negative pressure (OLBNP), sit-to-stand maneuvers, and squat-stand maneuvers. A total of 113 studies were included, with 40 of these incorporating clinical populations. A total of 4126 participants were identified, with younger adults (18-40 years) being the most studied population. The most common techniques were squat-stands (n = 43), deep-breathing (n = 25), OLBNP (n = 20), and sit-to-stands (n = 16). Pooled coherence point estimates were: OLBNP 0.70 (95%CI:0.59-0.82), sit-to-stands 0.87 (95%CI:0.79-0.95), and squat-stands 0.98 (95%CI:0.98-0.99) at 0.05 Hz; and deep-breathing 0.90 (95%CI:0.81-0.99); OLBNP 0.67 (95%CI:0.44-0.90); and squat-stands 0.99 (95%CI:0.99-0.99) at 0.10 Hz. This review summarizes clinical findings, discusses the pros/cons of the 11 unique driven techniques included, and provides recommendations for future investigations into the unique physiological intricacies of dCA.

Abstract
With ascent to high altitude (HA), compensatory increases in cerebral blood flow and oxygen delivery must occur to preserve cerebral metabolism and consciousness. We hypothesized that this compensation in cerebral blood flow and oxygen delivery preserves tolerance to simulated hemorrhage (via lower body negative pressure, LBNP), such that tolerance is similar during sustained exposure to HA vs. low altitude (LA). Healthy humans (4F/4 M) participated in LBNP protocols to presyncope at LA (1130 m) and 5-7 days following ascent to HA (3800 m). Internal carotid artery (ICA) blood flow, cerebral delivery of oxygen (CDO2) through the ICA, and cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (ScO2) were determined. LBNP tolerance was similar between conditions (LA: 1276 ± 304 s vs. HA: 1208 ± 306 s; P = 0.58). Overall, ICA blood flow and CDO2 were elevated at HA vs. LA (P ≤ 0.01) and decreased with LBNP under both conditions (P < 0.0001), but there was no effect of altitude on ScO2 responses (P = 0.59). Thus, sustained exposure to hypobaric hypoxia did not negatively impact tolerance to simulated hemorrhage. These data demonstrate the robustness of compensatory physiological mechanisms that preserve human cerebral blood flow and oxygen delivery during sustained hypoxia, ensuring cerebral tissue metabolism and neuronal function is maintained.

Abstract
Spontaneous cerebral vasomotion, characterized by ∼0.1 Hz rhythmic contractility, is crucial for brain homeostasis. However, our understanding of vasomotion is limited due to a lack of high-precision analytical methods to determine single vasomotion events at basal levels. Here, we developed a novel strategy that integrates a baseline smoothing algorithm, allowing precise measurements of vasodynamics and concomitant Ca2+ dynamics in mouse cerebral vasculature imaged by two-photon microscopy. We identified several previously unrecognized vasomotion properties under different physiological and pathological conditions, especially in ischemic stroke, which is a highly harmful brain disease that results from vessel occlusion. First, the dynamic characteristics between SMCs Ca2+ and corresponding arteriolar vasomotion are correlated. Second, compared to previous diameter-based estimations, our radius-based measurements reveal anisotropic vascular movements, enabling a more precise determination of the latency between smooth muscle cell (SMC) Ca2+ activity and vasoconstriction. Third, we characterized single vasomotion event kinetics at scales of less than 4 seconds. Finally, following pathological vasoconstrictions induced by ischemic stroke, vasoactive arterioles entered an inert state and persisted despite recanalization. In summary, we developed a highly accurate technique for analyzing spontaneous vasomotion, and our data suggested a potential strategy to reduce stroke damage by promoting vasomotion recovery.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke produces the highest adult disability. Despite successful recanalization, no-reflow, or the futile restoration of the cerebral perfusion after ischemia, is a major cause of brain lesion expansion. However, the vascular mechanism underlying this hypoperfusion is largely unknown, and no approach is available to actively promote optimal reperfusion to treat no-reflow. Here, by combining two-photon laser scanning microscopy (2PLSM) and a mouse middle cerebral arteriolar occlusion (MCAO) model, we find myogenic vasomotion deficits correlated with post-ischemic cerebral circulation interruptions and no-reflow. Transient occlusion-induced transient loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨm) permanently impairs mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contacts and abolish Ca2+ oscillation in smooth muscle cells (SMCs), the driving force of myogenic spontaneous vasomotion. Furthermore, tethering mitochondria and ER by specific overexpression of ME-Linker in SMCs restores cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis, remotivates myogenic spontaneous vasomotion, achieves optimal reperfusion, and ameliorates neurological injury. Collectively, the maintaining of arteriolar myogenic vasomotion and mitochondria-ER contacts in SMCs, are of critical importance in preventing post-ischemic no-reflow.

Abstract
During cerebral hypoperfusion induced by lower body negative pressure (LBNP), cerebral tissue oxygenation is protected with oscillatory arterial pressure and cerebral blood flow at low frequencies (0.1 Hz and 0.05 Hz), despite no protection of cerebral blood flow or oxygen delivery. However, hypocapnia induced by LBNP contributes to cerebral blood flow reductions, and may mask potential protective effects of hemodynamic oscillations on cerebral blood flow. We hypothesized that under isocapnic conditions, forced oscillations of arterial pressure and blood flow at 0.1 Hz and 0.05 Hz would attenuate reductions in extra- and intracranial blood flow during simulated hemorrhage using LBNP. Eleven human participants underwent three LBNP profiles: a nonoscillatory condition (0 Hz) and two oscillatory conditions (0.1 Hz and 0.05 Hz). End-tidal (et) CO2 and etO2 were clamped at baseline values using dynamic end-tidal forcing. Cerebral tissue oxygenation (ScO2), internal carotid artery (ICA) blood flow, and middle cerebral artery velocity (MCAv) were measured. With clamped etCO2, neither ICA blood flow (ANOVA P = 0.93) nor MCAv (ANOVA P = 0.36) decreased with LBNP, and these responses did not differ between the three profiles (ICA blood flow: 0 Hz: 2.2 ± 5.4%, 0.1 Hz: -0.4 ± 6.6%, 0.05 Hz: 0.2 ± 4.8%; P = 0.56; MCAv: 0 Hz: -2.3 ± 7.8%, 0.1 Hz: -1.3 ± 6.1%, 0.05 Hz: -3.1 ± 5.0%; P = 0.87). Similarly, ScO2 did not decrease with LBNP (ANOVA P = 0.21) nor differ between the three profiles (0 Hz: -2.6 ± 3.3%, 0.1 Hz: -1.6 ± 1.5%, 0.05 Hz: -0.2 ± 2.8%; P = 0.13). Contrary to our hypothesis, cerebral blood flow and tissue oxygenation were protected during LBNP with isocapnia, regardless of whether hemodynamic oscillations were induced.NEW & NOTEWORTHY We examined the role of forcing oscillations in arterial pressure and blood flow at 0.1 Hz and 0.05 Hz on extra- and intracranial blood flow and cerebral tissue oxygenation during simulated hemorrhage (using lower body negative pressure, LBNP) under isocapnic conditions. Contrary to our hypothesis, both cerebral blood flow and cerebral tissue oxygenation were completely protected during simulated hemorrhage with isocapnia, regardless of whether oscillations in arterial pressure and cerebral blood flow were induced. These findings highlight the protective effect of preventing hypocapnia on cerebral blood flow under simulated hemorrhage conditions.

Abstract
Introduction: Like heart rate, blood pressure (BP) is not steady but varies over intervals as long as months to as short as consecutive cardiac cycles. This blood pressure variability (BPV) consists of regularly occurring oscillations as well as less well-organized changes and typically is computed as the standard deviation of multiple clinic visit-to-visit (VVV-BP) measures or from 24-h ambulatory BP recordings (ABPV). BP also varies on a beat-to-beat basis, quantified by methods that parse variation into discrete bins, e.g., low frequency (0.04-0.15 Hz, LF). However, beat-to-beat BPV requires continuous recordings that are not easily acquired. As a result, we know little about the relationship between LF-BPV and basic sociodemographic characteristics such as age, sex, and race and clinical conditions. Methods: We computed LF-BPV during an 11-min resting period in 2,118 participants in the Midlife in the US (MIDUS) study. Results: LF-BPV was negatively associated with age, greater in men than women, and unrelated to race or socioeconomic status. It was greater in participants with hypertension but unrelated to hyperlipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, diabetes, elevated CRP, or obesity. LF-diastolic BPV (DBPV), but not-systolic BPV (SBPV), was negatively correlated with IL-6 and s-ICAM and positively correlated with urinary epinephrine and cortisol. Finally, LF-DBPV was negatively associated with mortality, an effect was rendered nonsignificant by adjustment by age but not other sociodemographic characteristics. Discussion: These findings, the first from a large, national sample, suggest that LF-BPV differs significantly from VVV-BP and ABPV. Confirming its relationship to sociodemographic risk factors and clinical outcomes requires further study with large and representative samples.

Abstract
Haemodynamic oscillations occurring at frequencies below the rate of respiration have been observed experimentally for more than a century. Much of the research regarding these oscillations, observed in arterial pressure and blood flow, has focused on mechanisms of generation and methods of quantification. However, examination of the physiological role of these oscillations has been limited. Multiple studies have demonstrated that oscillations in arterial pressure and blood flow are associated with the protection in tissue oxygenation or functional capillary density during conditions of reduced tissue perfusion. There is also evidence that oscillatory blood flow can improve clearance of interstitial fluid, with a growing number of studies demonstrating a role for oscillatory blood flow to aid in clearance of debris from the brain. The therapeutic potential of these haemodynamic oscillations is an important new area of research which may have beneficial impact in treating conditions such as stroke, cardiac arrest, blood loss injuries, sepsis, or even Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia.

Abstract
Cerebral hemodynamics (e.g., cerebral blood flow) can be measured and quantified using many different methods, with Transcranial Doppler ultrasound (TCD) being one of the most commonly utilized approaches. In human physiology, the terminology used to describe metrics of cerebral hemodynamics are inconsistent, and in some instances technically inaccurate; this is especially true when evaluating, reporting, and interpreting measures from TCD. Therefore, this perspectives article presents recommended terminology when reporting cerebral hemodynamic data. We discuss the current use and misuse of the terminology in the context of using TCD to measure and quantify cerebral hemodynamics and present our rationale and consensus on the terminology that we recommend moving forward. For example, one recommendation is to discontinue use of the term "cerebral blood flow velocity" in favor of "cerebral blood velocity" with precise indication of the vessel of interest. We also recommend clarity when differentiating between discrete cerebrovascular regulatory mechanisms, namely cerebral autoregulation, neurovascular coupling, and cerebrovascular reactivity. This will be a useful guide for investigators in the field of cerebral hemodynamics research.
