Blood oxygen level-dependent (BOLD) fMRI and ECG were acquired from patients with CVS and healthy adults during both a rest condition and a sustained cuff pressure-pain stimulus at the leg.

In some cases, the regurgitated contents can also reach the esophagus leading to additional complications. In this work, \"StomachSim\", an <i>in-silico</i> model of the fluid dynamics of the stomach, is used to study the mechanism of duodenogastric reflux.

The simulations show that the primary driver of reflux is the relaxation of the antrum after a stomach contraction terminates near the pylorus. The region of the stomach walls exposed to the regurgitated contents depends significantly on the density of the stomach contents. For stomach contents of higher viscosity, the increased pressure required to maintain gastric emptying reduces the amount of duodenogastric reflux.

After an intervention, anxiety-like behavior was assessed using the elevated plus maze. CCl<sub>4</sub> increased liver and serum fibrotic markers, as measured by blood analysis, histochemistry, and qRT-PCR, and these changes were attenuated by exercise training. CCl<sub>4</sub> induced anxiety-like behavior, and the anxiolytic effects of exercise occurred in both healthy and liver-fibrotic mice. In the hippocampus, CCl<sub>4</sub>-induced changes in neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) were reversed by exercise, and exercise enhanced brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) induction, even in a state of severe liver fibrosis. These results suggested that hepatic fibrosis-related anxiety-like behaviors may be induced by excess hippocampal nNOS, and the beneficial effects of exercise could be mediated by increases in BDNF and reductions in nNOS. The percentage of fibrotic area was negatively correlated with antianxiety behavior and positively associated with hippocampal nNOS protein levels. Liver fibrosis-related anxiety-like behaviors could be alleviated through the regulation of hippocampal BDNF and nNOS via exercise training. These results support the therapeutic value of exercise by targeting the mechanisms underlying liver fibrosis and associated anxiety.<b>NEW & NOTEWORTHY</b> This study explores how exercise affects liver fibrosis-related anxiety in mice. Researchers found that regular exercise reversed carbon tetrachloride (CCl<sub>4</sub>)-induced liver fibrosis and reduced anxiety, even in mice with liver fibrosis. Exercise increased brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and decreased neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the hippocampus. These findings suggest that exercise has therapeutic potential for treating anxiety associated with chronic liver disease by modulating specific brain factors.</p>","PeriodicalId":7725,"journal":{"name":"American journal of physiology.
