An increased AIx may have a potentially
beneficial effect in reflecting an otherwise high pulsatile flow wave travelling to the
micro-circulation
![Page 13: Mechanistic insights into the relationship between wave reflection and retinal artery flow pulsatility. McDonnell BJ *, Coulson J **, Zagura M***, Munnery.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56649f0e5503460f94c23249/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Step 2:
Aim of study: • To investigate if wave reflection is directly
related to degree of pulsatility in the retinal artery.
• By reducing/manipulating wave reflection via administration of sublingual GTN.

The Effects of GTN
![Page 15: Mechanistic insights into the relationship between wave reflection and retinal artery flow pulsatility. McDonnell BJ *, Coulson J **, Zagura M***, Munnery.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56649f0e5503460f94c23249/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Methods
• Vascular Measurements: – (Peripheral and Central BP and HR, (using Mobilograph, IEM)– CBP and AIx (using SphygmoCor)
• Retinal Artery Flow Measurements: – (PI using Doppler Ultrasound, GE).
Participants: 9 individuals, aged 63±6 years (3 Males, 6 Females)
-free from CVD and ocular disease and free from taking sympathomimetic compounds.
![Page 16: Mechanistic insights into the relationship between wave reflection and retinal artery flow pulsatility. McDonnell BJ *, Coulson J **, Zagura M***, Munnery.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56649f0e5503460f94c23249/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Measuring of flow oscillations in the retinal artery using:
• Pulsatility Index as a measure of flow wave pulsatility.
PI takes into account Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV), End Diastolic Velocity (EDV) of the flow wave, whilst accounting for Mean Flow Velocity (MV).
![Page 17: Mechanistic insights into the relationship between wave reflection and retinal artery flow pulsatility. McDonnell BJ *, Coulson J **, Zagura M***, Munnery.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062804/56649f0e5503460f94c23249/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

CF PWV and increased pulsatility in the retinal artery.
• Increased wave reflection was inversely related to increased pulsatility in the retinal artery.
• Individuals with high PWV and low AIx had significantly higher pulsatility in the retinal artery compared to individuals with low PWV and high AIx.
