Vaping Impairs Vascular Function

Caption

Neurovascular response to breath hold. (a) Magnitude image intensity of superior sagittal sinus (SSS, box). Insets show velocity maps at different points of the velocity time-course (40 seconds [t40], 50 seconds [t50], and 70 seconds [t70]). (b) Sample SSS blood flow velocity time-course (red line) shown for a representative participant. The thick black line is linear fit during breath holds, the slope of which is the breath-hold index (BHI). ΔVSSS = post-breath hold relative velocity increase.
