- Abstract
This paper investigates a method to generate personal identification number (PIN) using brain activity recorded from a single active electroencephalogram (EEG) channel. EEG based biometric to generate PIN is less prone to fraud and the method is based on the recent developments in brain-computer interface (BCI) technology, specifically P300 based BCI designs. Our perfect classification accuracies from three subjects indicate promise for generating PIN using thought activity measured from a single channel.

- Abstract
Younger women rely on altering cardiac output ( Q ̇ $\dot{Q}$ ) to regulate blood pressure (BP). In contrast, older women rely more on altering vascular tone. However, evidence suggests that the ability to alter systemic vascular conductance (SVC) is diminished in older women. In the present study, cardioselective β-blockade was utilized to diminish the relative contribution of Q ̇ $\dot{Q}$ to BP regulation and thereby evaluate age-related vascular limitations in women at rest and during large muscle dynamic exercise. Younger (n = 13, mean age 26.0 years) and older (n = 14, mean age 61.8 years) healthy women performed submaximal bouts of semi-recumbent cycling exercise at varying intensities while receiving an intravenous infusion of esmolol, a β
1 -antagonist, or saline control in a repeated-measures crossover design. Q ̇ $\dot{Q}$ was attenuated during esmolol infusion, with greater reductions during exercise (moderate, -1.0 (95% CI, -1.6 to -0.5) L/min, P < 0.001; heavy, -2.0 (95% CI, -2.6 to -1.5) L/min, P < 0.001) than seated rest (-0.5 (95% CI, -1.1 to 0.0) L/min, P = 0.048), and this reduction was not significantly different between age groups (P = 0.122). Older women exhibited a greater attenuation in mean arterial pressure (MAP) during esmolol (-7 (95% CI, -9 to -4) mmHg, P < 0.001) relative to younger women (-2 (95% CI, -5 to 0) mmHg, P = 0.071). These changes coincided with a greater reduction of SVC in the younger women during esmolol (-15 (95% CI, -20 to -10) mL/min/mmHg, P < 0.001) compared to older women (-3 (95% CI, -9 to 2) mL/min/mmHg, P = 0.242). Together, these findings provide evidence that older, postmenopausal women have a diminished ability to adjust SVC in order to regulate MAP., (© 2024 The Author(s).

- Abstract
Postmenopausal cardiovascular health is a critical determinant of longevity. Consumption of beetroot juice (BR) and other nitrate-rich foods is a safe, effective non-pharmaceutical intervention to increase systemic bioavailability of the vasoprotective molecule, nitric oxide, through the exogenous nitrate (NO
3 - )-nitrite (NO2 - )-nitric oxide (NO) pathway. We hypothesized that a single dose of nitrate-rich beetroot juice (BRnitrate 600 mg NO3 - /140 mL, BRplacebo ∼ 0 mg/140 mL) would improve resting endothelial function and resistance to ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury to a greater extent in early-postmenopausal (1-6 years following their final menstrual period (FMP), n = 12) compared to late-postmenopausal (6+ years after FMP, n = 12) women. Analyses with general linear models revealed a significant ( p < 0.05) time* treatment interaction effect for brachial artery adjusted flow-mediated dilation (FMD). Pairwise comparisons revealed that adjusted FMD was significantly lower following IR-injury in comparison to all other time points with BRplacebo (early FMD 2.51 ± 1.18%, late FMD 1.30 ± 1.10, p < 0.001) and was lower than post-IR with BRnitrate (early FMD 3.84 ± 1.21%, late FMD 3.21 ± 1.13%, p = 0.014). A single dose of BRnitrate significantly increased resting macrovascular function in the late postmenopausal group only ( p = 0.005). Considering the postmenopausal stage-dependent variations in endothelial responsiveness to dietary nitrate, we predict differing mechanisms underpin macrovascular protection against IR injury., Competing Interests: The authors declare there are no competing interests.- Published

- Abstract
Introduction: Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death in women, with increased risk following menopause. Dietary intake of beetroot juice and other plant-based nitrate-rich foods is a promising non-pharmacological strategy for increasing systemic nitric oxide and improving endothelial function in elderly populations. The purpose of this randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover clinical trial was to determine the effects of short-term dietary nitrate (NO
3 - ) supplementation, in the form of beetroot juice, on resting macrovascular endothelial function and endothelial resistance to whole-arm ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in postmenopausal women at two distinct stages of menopause., Methods: Early-postmenopausal [1-6 years following their final menstrual period (FMP), n = 12] and late-postmenopausal (6+ years FMP, n = 12) women consumed nitrate-rich (400 mg NO3 - /70 mL) and nitrate-depleted beetroot juice (approximately 40 mg NO3 - /70 mL, placebo) daily for 7 days. Brachial artery flow-mediated dilation (FMD) was measured pre-supplementation (Day 0), and approximately 24 h after the last beetroot juice (BR) dose (Day 8, post-7-day BR). Consequently, FMD was measured immediately post-IR injury and 15 min later (recovery)., Results: Results of the linear mixed-effects model revealed a significantly greater increase in resting FMD with 7 days of BRnitrate compared to BRplacebo (mean difference of 2.21, 95% CI [0.082, 4.34], p = 0.042); however, neither treatment blunted the decline in post-IR injury FMD in either postmenopausal group. Our results suggest that 7-day BRnitrate -mediated endothelial protection is lost within the 24-h period following the final dose of BRnitrate ., Conclusion: Our findings demonstrate that nitrate-mediated postmenopausal endothelial protection is dependent on the timing of supplementation in relation to IR injury and chronobiological variations in dietary nitrate metabolism., Clinical Trial Registration: https://classic.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT03644472., Competing Interests: The authors declare that the research was conducted in the absence of any commercial or financial relationships that could be construed as a potential conflict of interest., (Copyright © 2024 Delgado Spicuzza, Gosalia, Zhong, Bondonno, Petersen, De Souza, Alipour, Kim-Shapiro, Somani and Proctor.)- Published

- Abstract
Age-related vascular alterations promote the pathogenesis of vascular cognitive impairment (VCI). Cardiovascular risk factors that accelerate vascular aging exacerbate VCI. Metabolic syndrome (MetS) constitutes a cluster of critical cardiovascular risk factors (abdominal obesity, hypertension, elevated triglycerides, elevated fasting glucose, reduced HDL cholesterol), which affects nearly 37% of the adult US population. The present study was designed to test the hypotheses that MetS exacerbates cognitive impairment and that arterial stiffening moderates the association between cognitive dysfunction and MetS in older adults. MetS was defined by the NCEP ATP III guidelines. Cognitive function (digit span and trail-making tests) and brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV; a non-invasive clinical measurement of arterial stiffness) were assessed in older adults with MetS and age- and sex-matched controls. Multiple linear regression models were applied to test for the main effects of MetS, baPWV, and their interaction on cognitive performance. Fifty-three participants with MetS (age: 68 ± 8 years) and 39 age-matched individuals without MetS (age: 66 ± 9 years) were enrolled into the study. In adjusted multivariable regression analyses of the digit span backward length score, both MetS (ß = 1.97, p = 0.048) and MetS by baPWV interaction (ß = - 0.001, p = 0.026) were significant predictors. In participants with MetS, higher baPWV was associated with poorer performance on digit span backward length score, a test of working memory (R = - 0.44, p = 0.0012), but there was no association in those without MetS (R = 0.035, p = 0.83). MetS was negatively associated with performance on the digit span backward length score, baPWV was negatively associated with multiple neuropsychological outcomes, and baPWV moderated the association between digit span backward length score and MetS, as individuals with both MetS and higher baPWV had the most impaired cognitive function. Our findings add to the growing body of evidence that individuals with MetS and higher baPWV may be prone to VCI., (© 2022. The Author(s), under exclusive licence to American Aging Association.)

- Abstract
Background: Non-invasive determination of mitochondrial capacity via near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) typically involves voluntary exercise of a single muscle group followed by as many as 26 brief ischemic cuff occlusions to determine a single recovery rate constant (k)., Purpose: To determine the within- and between-visit repeatability of a shortened bilateral NIRS protocol, and to establish the feasibility of hamstring k measurements., Methods: Sixteen young (eight women, eight men; 22 ± 3 years) active adults underwent a bilateral electrical stimulation protocol in which multiple (n = 4) measurements of k for the vastus lateralis (VL) and medial hamstring (MH) muscles were determined on two visits. Repeatability (CV% and intraclass correlations, ICC) and equivalency across visits were assessed for both muscles., Results: Mean k values in the VL were consistent with published values and within-visit ICCs were moderately high for both muscles in both sexes. In men, average k values on visit 2 were within 1% (VL muscle) and 5% (MH muscle) of the values on visit 1 (all p > 0.78). In women, average k values were 10%-15% lower on visit 2 (p = 0.01 and p = 0.15 for MH and VL) with the largest between-visit differences in a subset of participants with the most days between visits., Conclusions: This bilateral NIRS protocol is time efficient and provides valid estimates of k in both sexes and muscle groups with acceptable within-visit repeatability. Lower than expected between-visit repeatability in some participants reinforces the need for further investigation of this newly developed protocol to identify and control for experimental and behavioral sources of variation., (© 2021 The Authors.
