Cerebral blood velocity (CBv) in the middle and posterior cerebral arteries (MCAv, PCAv) were measured via Transcranial Doppler ultrasound. Linear mixed-effects models with participants as a random effect analyzed NVC metrics, including baseline and peak CBv, relative increase, and area-under-the-curve (AUC30). During hypercapnic trials, reductions in PCAv and MCAv AUC30 were noted across the cardiac cycle (all <i>p < 0.001</i>). Hypocapnic PCAv AUC30 was reduced (all <i>p < 0.012</i>), as was systolic MCAv AUC30 (<i>p = 0.003</i>). Females displayed greater baseline PCA diastole (<i>p = 0.048</i>). No other biological sex differences were observed across conditions in baseline (all <i>p > 0.050</i>), peak (all <i>p</i> > <i>0.054</i>), relative increase (all <i>p > 0.511</i>), and AUC30 metrics (all <i>p > 0.514</i>). Despite differences in responses to hypercapnic and hypocapnic stimuli, NVC responses to complex visual tasks remain robust, across the physiological CO<sub>2</sub> range.</p>","PeriodicalId":15325,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism","volume":" ","pages":"271678X251318922"},"PeriodicalIF":4.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11795569/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143189022","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
