新冠肺炎疫情引发了要求佩戴口罩的广泛命令，这引发了人们对口罩的好处和可能的不利影响的辩论。为此，系统和大脑层面的生理效应是令人感兴趣的。我们用经颅混合近红外光谱仪测量了13名健康成人(年龄23-33岁)，研究了常用口罩(FFP-2和外科口罩)对脑血流动力学和氧合的影响，特别是微血管脑血流量(CBF)和血/组织氧饱和度(StO2)的影响。结果表明，戴口罩时，大脑血液动力学发生了微小但显著的变化。然而，这些变化可以与日常生活活动的变化相媲美。这一平台和方案为大规模或有针对性地研究不同人群在执行关键任务时戴口罩的影响提供了基础。
The COVID-19 pandemic led to widespread mandates requiring the wearing of face masks, which led to debates on their benefits and possible adverse effects. To that end, the physiological effects at the systemic and at the brain level are of interest. We have investigated the effect of commonly available face masks (FFP2 and surgical) on cerebral hemodynamics and oxygenation, particularly microvascular cerebral blood flow (CBF) and blood/tissue oxygen saturation (StO2), measured by transcranial hybrid near-infrared spectroscopies and on systemic physiology in 13 healthy adults (ages: 23 to 33 y). The results indicate small but significant changes in cerebral hemodynamics while wearing a mask. However, these changes are comparable to those of daily life activities. This platform and the protocol provides the basis for large or targeted studies of the effects of mask wearing in different populations and while performing critical tasks.
