Depth-dependent contributions of various vascular zones to cerebral autoregulation and functional hyperemia: An in-silico analysis. by Hadi Esfandi, Mahshad Javidan, Rozalyn M Anderson, Ramin Pashaie

“…However, temporal alterations in capillary diameter contribute moderately to cerebral autoregulation and minimally to functional hyperemia. In addition, hemodynamic analysis shows that while hemodynamics within capillaries remain relatively stable across all cortical depths throughout the entire autoregulation range, significant variability in hemodynamics can be observed within the first few branch orders of precapillary arterioles or transitional zone vessels. …”
