  2. alktipping liked Turtle's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    Great finds! 2002, 2004 and 2008 and still a long way to go. Not only in exercise, I think, but who am I? OI (also with normal BP like...

  3. alktipping liked SNT Gatchaman's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    We have some older studies using near infrared spectroscopy to measure frontal lobe oxygenation, eg with orthostatic or exercise...

  4. alktipping liked Jonathan Edwards's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    @Ken Turnbull , I am wondering how reliable this test is as clinical information. Novak seems to have created this category of...

  5. alktipping liked Ken Turnbull's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    I was about to write to some of the researchers and ask them about the different placement of the ultrasound probes when they sent a...

    @Hutan , thank you very much for the suggestion. I will give it a try and report back.

  7. alktipping liked Turtle's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    Van Campen, Visser (2020) found 90% of ME/CFS patients had hypoperfusion during the tilt table test with doppler, not the healthy...

  8. alktipping liked Jonathan Edwards's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    I am wondering whether reduced cerebral perfusion on standing with a normal blood pressure in ME/CFS reflects a greater vasoconstrictive...

  9. alktipping liked JemPD's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    would reduced cerebral perfusion lead to my "seeing stars" & everything momentarily going black, just for a split second, when i stand up?

  10. alktipping liked Jonathan Edwards's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    It would. I always get that after getting up from a sofa if I have been sitting upright, but I don't get it getting up from a sofa if I...

  11. alktipping liked Trish's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    Why would spending a lot of time horizontal affect what happens in terms of blood pooling when standing up, apart from the initial...

  12. alktipping liked JemPD's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    interesting, because id not noticed that it happens after i've been sitting rather than lying, but i had noticed that it weirdly (to me)...

  13. alktipping liked Jonathan Edwards's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    The shift in plasma protein level is almost certainly part of a long term mechanism to re-adjust the blood volume needed for perfusion...

  14. alktipping liked Hutan's post in the thread Measuring cerebral hypoperfusion with Doppler ultrasound.

    I'm pretty sure though that the orthostatic intolerance in my children and I started at the same time as all the other symptoms. And so...
