Syncope, cerebral perfusion, and oxygenation
Abstract
During standing, both the position of the cerebral circulation and the reductions in mean arterial pressure (MAP) and cardiac output challenge cerebral autoregulatory (CA) mechanisms. Syncope is most often associated with the upright position and can be provoked by any condition that jeopardizes cerebral blood flow (CBF) and regional cerebral tissue oxygenation (cO 2 Hb). Reflex (vasovagal) responses, cardiac arrhythmias, and autonomic failure are common causes. An important defense against a critical reduction in the central blood volume is that of muscle activity (“the muscle pump”), and if it is not applied even normal humans faint. Continuous tracking of CBF by transcranial Doppler-determined cerebral blood velocity ( V mean ) and near-infrared spectroscopy-determined cO 2 Hb contribute to understanding the cerebrovascular adjustments to postural stress; e.g., MAP does not necessarily reflect the cerebrovascular phenomena associated with (pre)syncope. CA may be interpreted as a frequency-dependent phenomenon with attenuated transfer of oscillations in MAP to V mean at low frequencies. The clinical implication is that CA does not respond to rapid changes in MAP; e.g., there is a transient fall in V mean on standing up and therefore a feeling of lightheadedness that even healthy humans sometimes experience. In subjects with recurrent vasovagal syncope, dynamic CA seems not different from that of healthy controls even during the last minutes before the syncope. Redistribution of cardiac output may affect cerebral perfusion by increased cerebral vascular resistance, supporting the view that cerebral perfusion depends on arterial inflow pressure provided that there is a sufficient cardiac output.

During phases of presyncope in orthostatic stress tests, probands appear to develop feelings described as distress or feeling uncomfortable in an ill-defined way.
“At least during phases of presyncope in orthostatic stress tests, probands appear to develop feelings described as distress (Lagi et al., 2001) or “feeling uncomfortable in an ill-defined way” (Van Lieshout et al., 2003, p.835).”

Reports of syncope induced by hypocapnia alone are rare or limited to special maneuvers that combine voluntary hyperventilation with straining and postural stress.
“However, reports of syncope induced by hypocapnia alone a rare (e.g., David et al., 2003) or limited to special maneuvers that combine voluntary hyperventilation with straining and postural stress (the “fainting lark,” van Lieshout et al., 2003).”

At 50-60% reduction of cerebral blood flow, symptoms of mental confusion and problems with cerebral oxygenation set in.
“At 50–60% reduction of CBF, symptoms of mental confusion and problems with cerebral oxygenation set in (van Lieshout et al., 2003).”

Prodromal experiences in orthostatic syncope include diffuse symptoms of epigastric discomfort, nausea, sweating, and the desire to sit down or leave the room in early stages, and later lightheadedness, fatigue, palpitations, and blurred vision through reduced retinal perfusion.
“Prodromal experiences in orthostatic syncope have been described in detail by Van Lieshout et al. (2003). This involves diffuse symptoms of epigastric discomfort, nausea, sweating, and “the desire to sit down or leave the room” (p. 835) in early stages, and subsequent sensations of lightheadedness, fatigue, palpitations, and blurred vision through reduced retinal perfusion.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
