简要总结

We found dietary nitrate supplementation reduced blood pressure and brain blood flow fluctuations and improved the relationship between blood pressure and brain blood flow in transient ischemic attack patients. Meanwhile, dietary nitrate had no effects on the brain blood vessels’ response to CO2. We attribute the improved brain blood flow stability to the improved myogenic control of blood pressure with dietary nitrate. Our findings indicate that dietary nitrate could be an effective strategy for stabilizing blood pressure and brain blood flow following transient ischemic attack.
