INTRODUCTION: In Portugal, lung cancer (LC) is the first cause of cancer-related death and of death and disability combined. This study aims to analyze the overall survival (OS) and relative survival (RS) of patients diagnosed with LC in 2009-2011...

Consistency of hemodynamic and autonomic mechanisms underlying post-exercise hypotension.

Journal of human hypertension

Fecchio RY, Brito LC, Peçanha T, Forjaz CLM.
PMID: 33262435

Post-exercise hypotension (PEH) is a clinically relevant phenomenon, but its mechanisms vary between different studies and between the participants within each study. Additionally, it is possible that PEH mechanisms are not consistent in each individual (i.e. within-individual variation), which...

Passive Heating Attenuates Post-exercise Cardiac Autonomic Recovery in Healthy Young Males.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Peçanha T, Forjaz CLM, Low DA.
PMID: 29311799
Front Neurosci. 2017 Dec 21;11:727. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2017.00727. eCollection 2017.

Post-exercise heart rate (HR) recovery (HRR) presents a biphasic pattern, which is mediated by parasympathetic reactivation and sympathetic withdrawal. Several mechanisms regulate these post-exercise autonomic responses and thermoregulation has been proposed to play an important role. The aim of...
