Optimal Pacing for Running 400 m and 800 m Track Races

open access: yes, 2012
Physicists seeking to understand complex biological systems often find it rewarding to create simple "toy models" that reproduce system behavior. Here a toy model is used to understand a puzzling phenomenon from the sport of track and field.

Sodium bicarbonate and high-intensity-cycling capacity: variability in responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine whether gastrointestinal (GI) distress affects the ergogenicity of sodium bicarbonate and whether the degree of alkalaemia or other metabolic responses are different between individuals who improve exercise

The role of acid‐base balance in cerebrovascular and ventilatory responses to CO2 during 10 h normobaric hypoxia

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend During 10 h exposures to normobaric hypoxia exposure there was a selective leftward shift in ventilatory response to hyperoxic hypercapnic rebreathing, but not the cerebrovascular response. The key findings are that the resetting of the central chemoreflex to lower PCO2${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$ during early hypoxic ...

Bartter syndrome with long-term follow-up: a case report

open access: yesJournal of International Medical Research, 2020
Bartter syndrome is a rare inherited disease caused by CLCNKB mutation, which results in inactivation of the chloride channel Kb protein. Bartter syndrome is characterized by extreme hypokalemia, hypochloremia, metabolic alkalosis, hyperrenin-induced ...

Axial heterogeneity and filtered-load dependence of proximal bicarbonate reabsorption [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
A theoretical model was developed to examine the role of physical and chemical factors in the control of bicarbonate reabsorption in the renal proximal tubule. Included in the model were axial and radial variations in the concentrations of HCO3-, CO2 and

Ventilatory and cerebrovascular responses to exercise in lowlander children acclimatizing to high‐altitude

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend To investigate age‐related differences in ventilatory and cerebrovascular responses to exercise at high‐altitude, adults (n = 10, 23–44 years) and children (n = 8, 7–14 years) completed progressive cycling exercise tests at sea‐level and following 6 days of acclimatization at 3800 m.

Hypokalemic rhabdomyolysis: a rare manifestation of primary aldosteronism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rhabdomyolysis is a rare presentation of hypokalemia, although muscle weakness is a well-known manifestation of hypokalemia. Primary aldosteronism is characterized by hypertension, suppressed plasma renin activity, increased aldosterone excretion and ...

Elevated carotid body tonic activity contributes to ventilatory acclimatization and de‐acclimatization to high altitude at rest and during exercise

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Participants spent 13 days at high altitude (3800 m), where the reduced inspired oxygen pressure (↓PiO2$ \downarrow {P_{{\mathrm{i}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) which elicited ventilatory acclimatization and increased inhibition of ventilation by transient hyperoxia (ΔV̇E$\Delta {\dot V_{\mathrm{E}}}$).

Blood buffers: The viewpoint of a biochemist

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
Mammalian blood is a very complex system whose multiple physiological roles require that its pH is maintained constant, in spite of the necessity of carrying over 15 moles of CO2 a day from the tissues to the lungs. The blood pH is maintained constant by
