Implication

Hot flushes link to transient vasodilation and tachycardia without BP change; leaves open autonomic thermoregulatory mechanisms for prospective study.

Structured PICO

Population

Menopausal women experiencing spontaneous and stress-induced hot flushes

Comparator

Baseline/control levels prior to the hot flush

Outcome

Circulatory responses (hand, forearm, and calf blood flow, pulse rate, and blood pressure) measured by plethysmographysurrogate

Menopausal hot flushes are associated with transient, marked increases in peripheral blood flow and pulse rate without significant changes in blood pressure, reflecting altered autonomic thermoregulatory control.
