Résumé

Taking a short rest after lunch suppresses increases in blood flow to the digestive organs and maintains blood flow to the brain in the afternoon, possibly providing beneficial effects in preventing post-prandial drowsiness. The present study investigated sex-dependent influences on changes in hemodynamics produced by taking a short rest after lunch. Subjects comprised 20 healthy young adults (10 men, 10 women; mean age 21 ± 1 years). Doppler sonography was performed to measure blood flow in the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and common carotid artery (CCA) before and after lunch every hour on each day, with and without a 15-min rest with eyes closed after lunch. Blood pressure and heart rate (HR) were also measured. For both men and women, peak systolic velocity (PSV) in the SMA was suppressed by taking a rest. PSV in the CCA in men was increased at 0.5 h after lunch in the resting condition but was decreased in the non-resting condition (median 109%, interquartile range [IQR] 102-120% vs. median 98%, IQR 90-107%; P = 0.037). No such differences were observed in women. Although post-prandial increases in HR were observed in women, a similar increase was only found for men in the resting condition. An increase in CCA blood flow was observed only in men. The present study suggests that a short rest after lunch could better promote the maintenance of blood flow to the brain in men than in women.
