High‐altitude headache: Insights into pathophysiology and potential treatment implications

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend High‐altitude headache occurs during prolonged exposure to low oxygen, such as during ascent to high altitude. Several risk factors increase its likelihood, with the degree of hypoxia, often driven by rapid ascent to greater altitudes, being the most prominent factor.

Reduced cardiovascular mortality at moderate altitude: a putative role of physical activity and body mass

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Benefits of performing physical exercise at moderate altitude. At moderate altitude, increased resting metabolic rate and physical exertion promote physical fitness and exercise tolerance, whereas hypoxia suppresses appetite and elicits adaptations that increase tissue O2 delivery while augmenting O2‐independent ATP production ...

Maximal exercise at high altitude does not exacerbate inflammation in the human brain

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend This study investigated arterial–internal jugular venous (IJV) exchange of cytokines in response to low‐intensity and maximal cycling exercise at sea level and following 6–8 days at 3800 m a.s.l. There was a shift towards net release of interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), interleukin‐8 (IL‐8), monocyte chemoattractant protein‐1 (MCP‐1) and ...

Gas exchange and pulmonary stress variations during SCUBA and breath‐hold diving in open seawater

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Healthy, trained divers were studied before, during and after diving in open seawater with different techniques. SCUBA divers (diving to 15 or 40 m with air; cycling at depth) and breath‐hold divers (BHDs; sled‐assisted dives to 15, 25 or 40 m) underwent underwater and surface arterial blood gas (ABG) sampling.
