Retinal venular vessel diameters are smaller during ten days of bed rest
Scientific Reports, 2023 Older individuals experience cardiovascular dysfunction during extended bedridden hospital or care home stays. Bed rest is also used as a model to simulate accelerated vascular deconditioning occurring during spaceflight.

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 ...

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 ...
