Neurophysiological mechanisms underlying cardiovascular adaptations to exercise: A narrative review by Joseph G. Omole, Idara A. Okon, Godswill J. Udom, Omoirri M. Aziakpono, Richard D. Agbana, Ayodeji Aturamu, Nicodemus Niwamanya, Benjamin Oritsemuelebi, Ekom M. Etukudo, Omoniyi K. Yemitan

“…Key mediators such as central autonomic networks, brain‐derived neurotrophic factors (BDNF), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) enhance neural plasticity and vascular health. Regular structured exercise (e.g., high‐intensity interval training, moderate and resistance exercise) moderates autonomic responses, increases BDNF, and supports neurovascular coupling, improving both cognitive and cardiovascular resilience through molecular pathways such as PGC‐1α and TrkB signaling. …”

Meso-scale mechanical damage behavior of ECC-repaired wide and narrow joints of longitudinally continuous slab tracks by Long Chen, Tianzhi Xuan, Jinjie Chen, Fengzhuang Tong, Yujie Feng, Yang Yang

“…Results show: (1) The fracture load of wide and narrow joints with 2.5 % fiber added is 31 % higher than that without fiber added, but it has little effect on the initial crack load and displacement. (2) The influence of matrix strength on damage follows a linear pattern. When the concrete strength increased from C35 to C60, the maximum compressive damage factor of the wide and narrow joints under temperature rise decreased from 0.9237 to 0.4752. (3) Improving the normal strength of the bonding surface and reducing the tangential stiffness can effectively delay the initiation of interface damage.…”
