As per the researchers, "The oxygenation persisted when neural activity and functional hyperemia (blood flow increases) were blocked, occurred both in the tissue and in arteries feeding the brain, and were tightly correlated with respiration rate and the phase of the respiration cycle." They conclude that "respiration provides a dynamic pathway for modulating cerebral oxygenation."
