Capturing postural blood pressure dynamics with near-infrared spectroscopy-measured cerebral oxygenation. GeroScience 2023; 45:2643-2657. [PMID: 37041313 PMCID: PMC10651596 DOI: 10.1007/s11357-023-00791-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/20/2023] [Accepted: 03/31/2023] [Indexed: 04/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is highly prevalent in older adults and associated with dizziness, falls, lower physical and cognitive function, cardiovascular disease, and mortality. OH is currently diagnosed in a clinical setting with single-time point cuff measurements. Continuous blood pressure (BP) devices can measure OH dynamics but cannot be used for daily life monitoring. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) has potential diagnostic value in measuring cerebral oxygenation continuously over a longer time period, but this needs further validation. This study aimed to compare NIRS-measured (cerebral) oxygenation with continuous BP and transcranial Doppler-measured cerebral blood velocity (CBv) during postural changes. This cross-sectional study included 41 participants between 20 and 88 years old. BP, CBv, and cerebral (long channels) and superficial (short channels) oxygenated hemoglobin (O2Hb) were measured continuously during various postural changes. Pearson correlations between BP, CBv, and O2Hb were calculated over curves and specific characteristics (maximum drop amplitude and recovery). BP and O2Hb only showed good curve-based correlations (0.58-0.75) in the initial 30 s after standing up. Early (30-40 s) and 1-min BP recovery associated significantly with O2Hb, but no consistent associations were found for maximum drop amplitude and late (60-175 s) recovery values. Associations between CBv and O2Hb were poor, but stronger for long-channel than short-channel measurements. BP associated well with NIRS-measured O2Hb in the first 30 s after postural change. Stronger associations for CBv with long-channel O2Hb suggest that long-channel NIRS specifically reflects cerebral blood flow during postural transitions, necessary to better understand the consequences of OH such as intolerance symptoms.

Abstract
Cardiovascular self-organized criticality has recently been demonstrated. We studied a model of autonomic nervous system changes to better characterize heart rate variability self-organized criticality. The model included short and long-term autonomic changes associated with body position and physical training, respectively. Twelve professional soccer players took part in a 5-week training session divided into "Warm-up", "Intensive", and "Tapering" periods. A stand test was carried out at the beginning and end of each period. Heart rate variability was recorded beat by beat (Polar Team 2). Bradycardias, defined as successive heart rates with a decreasing value, were counted according to their length in number of heartbeat intervals. We checked whether bradycardias were distributed according to Zipf's law, a feature of self-organized criticality. Zipf's law draws a straight line when the rank of occurrence is plotted against the frequency of occurrence in a log-log graph. Bradycardias were distributed according to Zipf's law, regardless of body position or training. Bradycardias were much longer in the standing position than the supine position and Zipf's law was broken after a delay of four heartbeat intervals. Zipf's law could also be broken in some subjects with curved long bradycardia distributions by training. Zipf's law confirms the self-organized nature of heart rate variability and is strongly linked to autonomic standing adjustment. However, Zipf's law could be broken, the significance of which remains unclear.

Abstract
The cardiorespiratory hypothesis (CH) is one of the hypotheses used by researchers to explain the relationship between cardiorespiratory fitness and cognitive performance during executive functions. Despite the indubitable beneficial effect of training on brain blood flow and function that may explain the link between physical fitness and cognition and the recognition of the near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) as a reliable tool for measuring brain oxygenation, few studies investigated the CH with NIRS. It is still not well understood whether an increase in brain flow by training is translated into an increase in cerebral oxygenation. Thus, the objective of this mini-review was to summarize main results of studies that investigated the CH using the NIRS and to propose future research directions.
