Microvascular endothelial function in a multi-ethnic group of apparently healthy South African men and women: Implications for testing and the relationship between insulin resistance and microvascular reactivity
… manifestations. Measuring ethnic differences in microvascular endothelial function will provide insight into the disparate cardio-metabolic disease profiles that exist within a multi-ethnic South African population. Moreover, it has been shown that insulin resistance is associated with …

Altered Hemodynamic Control in the Skeletal Muscle Microcirculation in the Metabolic Syndrome: The Emergence of a new Attractor
… defining characteristic of metabolic syndrome is microvascular dysfunction. Increasing evidence has indicated that the mechanisms responsible for microvascular dysfunction in metabolic syndrome are oxidant stress-based alterations to arachidonic acid metabolism and increased sensitivity to …

The Contribution of Nitric Oxide to the Skin Blood Flow Response to Exercise in Boys and Men
In response to heat stress, children sweat less than 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 …
