Resumen
El texto original del estudio, en el idioma en que se publicó.
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are highly prevalent in spinal cord injury (SCI), and peripheral vascular dysfunction might be a contributing factor. Recent evidence demonstrates that exposure to heat stress can improve vascular function and reduce the risk of CVD in uninjured populations. We therefore aimed to examine the extent of vascular dysfunction in SCI and the acute effects of passive heating. Fifteen participants with cervical SCI and 15 uninjured control (CON) participants underwent ultrasound assessments of vascular function and venous blood sampling for biomarkers of endothelial activation (i.e., CD62e+) and apoptosis (i.e., CD31+/42b-) before and after a 60-min exposure to lower limb hot water immersion (40°C). In SCI, macrovascular endothelial function was reduced in the brachial artery [SCI: 4.8 (3.2)% vs. CON: 7.6 (3.4)%, P = 0.04] but not the femoral artery [SCI: 3.7 (2.6)% vs. CON: 4.0 (2.1)%, P = 0.70]. Microvascular function, via reactive hyperemia, was ~40% lower in SCI versus CON in both the femoral and brachial arteries ( P + were elevated in SCI versus CON [SCI: 152 (106) microparticles/µl vs. CON: 58 (24) microparticles/µl, P + concentrations in SCI to levels similar to CON ( P = 0.05). These data highlight the potential of acute heating to provide a safe and practical strategy to improve vascular function in SCI. The chronic effects of controlled heating warrant long-term testing. NEW & NOTEWORTHY Individuals with cervical level spinal cord injury exhibit selectively lower flow-mediated dilation in the brachial but not femoral artery, whereas peak reactive hyperemia was lower in both arteries compared with uninjured controls. After 60 min of lower limb hot water immersion, femoral artery blood flow and shear patterns were acutely improved in both groups. Elevated biomarkers of endothelial activation in the spinal cord injury group decreased with heating, but these biomarkers remained unchanged in controls.
