Evaluating local skin heating as an early detection method for small-fiber neuropathy in women with breast cancer receiving paclitaxel (Taxol®)
… to detect early signs of small-fiber neuropathy (local skin heating) could detect signs of small-fiber taxane-induced peripheral neuropathy (TIPN) in breast cancer survivors (BCS) during the first 6 weeks of Taxol®. Aims of the study were to compare the mean size of (1) axon reflexes and (2) axon …

Influence of upper limb ischaemia-reperfusion injury on the regulation of cutaneous blood flow during local thermal hyperaemia
… and kinetics of the vasodilatory response to local skin heating. Study 1 investigated between-day reliability of the local heating response in non-glabrous and glabrous index finger skin. Study 2 investigated the effects of I-R on the local heating response in non-glabrous and glabrous skin of …

Adenosine receptors in cutaneous thermal hyperemia and active vasodilation in humans
… the cutaneous vasodilation response to local skin heating and whole body heating in humans remain unresolved. Although nitric oxide (NO) is known to contribute to these responses, it remains unclear as to the source of NO. Adenosine receptors induce vasodilation in many human tissues and …

The Contribution of Nitric Oxide to the Skin Blood Flow Response to Exercise in Boys and Men
… adults. However, little is known about their skin blood flow (SkBF) response. We investigated child-adult differences in SkBF during exercise (30 min at 60% VO2max) and local heating (44℃) in 12 boys (9.71.2 y) and 12 men (22.22.0 y) using laser-Doppler flowmetry and L-NAME to inhibit nitric …

Effects of Tea on Peripheral and Cerebral Micro- and Macrovascular Function in Humans
… and maximal thermally stimulated forearm skin responses were examined simultaneously at four sites on the dominant forearm using laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF). The following heating protocols were adopted: 1. Rapid 39°C (0.5°C/5-s), 2. Rapid 42°C (0.5°C/5-s) 3. Gradual 42°C (0.5°C/2-min …
