Relationship of obesity and insulin resistance with the cerebrovascular reactivity: a case control study

BACKGROUND: Obesity is associated with increased risk for stroke. The breath-holding index (BHI) is a measure of vasomotor reactivity of the brain which can be measured with the transcranial Doppler (TCD). We aim to evaluate obesity as an independent factor for altered cerebrovascular reactivity. ME...
