Acute stress affects risk taking but not ambiguity aversion
Economic decisions are often made in stressful situations (e.g., at the trading floor), but the effects of stress on economic decision making have not been systematically investigated so far. The present study examines how acute stress influences economic decision making under uncertainty (risk and ambiguity) using financially incentivized lotteries. We varied the domain of decision making as w...
متن کاملExtravascular pressure modulates responses of isolated rat coronary arteries to vasodilator, but not vasoconstrictor, stimuli.
The aims of the study were to investigate whether elevated extravascular pressure modulates responses of isolated rat coronary arteries to constrictor and dilator stimuli. Isolated segments of rat coronary artery were mounted in a modified pressure myograph system that allowed independent modulation of both intra- and extravascular pressures. The influence of elevated extravascular pressure on ...
متن کاملVEGF165A microsphere therapy for myocardial infarction suppresses acute cytokine release and increases microvascular density but does not improve cardiac function.
Angiogenesis induced by growth factor-releasing microspheres can be an off-the-shelf and immediate alternative to stem cell therapy for acute myocardial infarction (AMI), independent of stem cell yield and comorbidity-induced dysfunction. Reliable and prolonged local delivery of intact proteins such as VEGF is, however, notoriously difficult. Our objective was to create a platform for local ang...
متن کاملFinger volume pulse waveforms facilitate reliable assessment of heart rate variability, but not blood pressure variability or baroreflex function
BACKGROUND We sought to determine whether heart rate variability (HRV), blood pressure (BP) variability, and baroreceptor-heart rate reflex sensitivity can be reliably assessed using finger volume pulse waveforms obtained from the commercially available EndoPAT device. METHODS Non-invasive BP (Finometer Pro as a non-invasive standard) and finger volume (EndoPAT) waveforms were recorded in 65 ...
متن کاملMaternal food restriction in the second half of pregnancy affects vascular function but not blood pressure of rat female offspring.
Food restriction during pregnancy in rats induces intrauterine growth retardation with consequences persisting into adulthood. In the present study we have investigated the hypothesis that malnutrition in pregnant rats may lead to altered cardiovascular function in adult female offspring. Perinatal growth retardation was induced by a 50% reduction of normal dietary intake in rats during the sec...
