Spaceborne and spaceborn: Physiological aspects of pregnancy and birth during interplanetary flight
Abstract Crewed interplanetary return missions that are on the planning horizon will take years, more than enough time for initiation and completion of a pregnancy. Pregnancy is viewed as a sequence of processes – fertilization, blastocyst formation, implantation, gastrulation, placentation, organogenesis, gross morphogenesis, birth and neonatal ...

Abstract Human populations native to high altitude have evolved distinct physiological adaptations to chronic hypoxia. This adaptation is evident in the O2 transport cascade. In this review, with brief inclusion of the related genetic adaptations, we compare the O2 cascade across three well‐characterized high‐altitude populations: Andeans (Aymara and ...

Abstract Immediate responses to hypoxia at high altitude are hyperventilation and successive respiratory alkalosis. Alkalosis, in turn, can affect cerebrospinal fluid pH and ventilatory control. The kidneys compensate metabolically for respiratory alkalosis.

Abstract We evaluated the feasibility and efficacy of a 2‐week training programme comprising resistance vibration exercise (RVE) without and with artificial gravity (AG). Participants (n = 24) were divided into three groups: (i) URVE: upright loaded squat exercise; (ii) HRVE: horizontal loaded squat exercise; and (iii) AGRVE: loaded squat exercise ...

How do physiological networks respond to normobaric hypoxia and isometric exercise?
Abstract The dynamics of physiological systems are impacted by both exercise and hypoxia. Network models can be used to map the interactions between various physiological components in environmental physiology and exercise using the concepts of information theory.
