Frontiers in Physiology, 2018 Prolonged inactivity, such as bed rest induces several detrimental changes within a short timeframe. Impaired postural balance and responses of trunk muscles to (un)expected perturbations were both shown to be impaired after bed rest. Certain populations

Heterogeneity of Hematological Response to Hypoxia and Short-Term or Medium-Term Bed Rest
Frontiers in Physiology, 2021 Hematological changes are commonly observed following prolonged exposure to hypoxia and bed rest. Typically, such responses have been reported as means and standard deviations, however, investigation into the responses of individuals is insufficient ...

P166 HEAD-DOWN TILT BED-REST SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASES CENTRAL ARTERIAL STIFFNESS
Artery Research, 2017 The vascular system is subject to continual variation in mechanical stresses, both physiological and pathological. Vascular remodeling via changes in vessel wall properties, including thickness and stiffness, is a major feature of aging and ...

Effects of bed-rest on urea and creatinine: correlation with changes in fat-free mass.
PLoS ONE, 2014 BackgroundBed-rest experiments are designed for investigation on catabolic effects of hypokinetic conditions and/or for microgravity simulation in on-ground aerospace research. Bed-rest effects include a reduction in fat-free mass and muscle mass.
