Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

Physical activity and joint health: Implications for knee osteoarthritis disease pathophysiology and mechanics

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Knee osteoarthritis is experienced by hundreds of millions of people worldwide and is a major cause of disability. Although enhancing physical activity levels and the participation in exercise programmes has been proved to improve the debilitating illness of osteoarthritis, many do not engage in recommended levels of physical activity.

Commuting by bicycle (vs. by car) is associated with improved aerobic power, microvascular function and diminished CO2 output in the atmosphere

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The study investigated whether bicycle compared with car commuting, over relatively small distances, has positive effects on physiological variables, cardiometabolic fitness and CO2 output in the atmosphere. Bike Commuters (11 M, 15 F; age [median value (interquartile range)] 51.5 (38.3–56.8) years; body mass index [BMI] 22.8 (21.0–24.1) kg m ...

The impact of healthy motion seating on lower‐limb blood flow and blood pressure response to simulated long‐haul air travel

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Prolonged sitting inherent to long‐haul air travel can acutely decrease lower‐limb blood flow and increase brachial blood pressure. Healthy motion seating (HMS), which passively alters sitting interface pressure and posture, is a promising technology which may attenuate the deleterious effects of long‐haul air travel. The aim of this study was

The hypoxic ventilatory response and arousal burden predict the magnitude of ventilatory long‐term facilitation in humans with obstructive sleep apnoea

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The magnitude of progressive augmentation (PA) and ventilatory long‐term facilitation (vLTF) are two forms of respiratory plasticity that are enhanced in some humans with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). This response might be linked to repeated nocturnal exposure to intermittent hypoxia or other traits connected to OSA.
