Effects of head-down bed rest on the executive functions and emotional response. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Prolonged bed rest may cause changes in the autonomic nervous system that are related to cognition and emotion. This study adopted an emotional flanker task to evaluate the effect of 45 days -6° head-down bed rest (HDBR) on executive functioning in 16 ...

Mechanical deconditioning of the heart due to long-term bed rest as observed on seismocardiogram morphology

open access: yesnpj Microgravity, 2022
During head-down tilt bed rest (HDT) the cardiovascular system is subject to headward fluid shifts. The fluid shift phenomenon is analogous to weightlessness experienced during spaceflight microgravity.

Inter-Person Differences in Isometric Coactivations of Triceps Surae and Tibialis Anterior Decrease in Young, but Not in Older Adults After 14 Days of Bed Rest

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
We examined activation patterns of the gastrocnemius medialis (GM), gastrocnemius lateralis (GL), soleus (SO), and tibialis anterior (TA) muscles in eight older (58.4 ± 3.3 years) and seven young (23.1 ± 2.9 years) participants, before and after 14 days ...
