Abstract Individuals of South Asian (SA) descent display a higher risk for cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus than their White European (WE) counterparts. Heat therapy, such as hot water immersion (HWI), can improve microvascular function and glycaemic control, although effects across racial groups are unknown.

Haemodynamic responses to head‐up tilt versus lower‐body negative pressure in type 1 diabetes
Abstract Head‐up tilt (HUT) and lower‐body negative pressure (LBNP) both reduce central blood volume but differ in heart orientation and regional fluid shifts. Whether they evoke comparable cardiovascular regulation when matched for preload remains uncertain.

Abstract This study analysed the effects of a supervised high‐intensity interval training (HIIT) programme on metabolic flexibility and autonomic function in active postmenopausal women. Twenty women (66.6 ± 6.2 years; 67.9 ± 11.1 kg) completed a 6‐week cycling HIIT intervention consisting of three weekly sessions (20 min/session).

Abstract The association between higher levels of physical activity and lower cancer risk and mortality is well established. However, a causal link is yet to be proven. Recent studies showed a decrease in the proliferation rates of cultured human cancer cells when the human serum used to stimulate them was conditioned by acute exercise. Here, we tested

Finding Dr Florence Buchanan: The recovered face and fuller life story of a scientific legend
Abstract Dr Florence Buchanan (1867–1931) was one of physiology's foundational women. Trained as a zoologist at University College London (UCL), she became an exacting physiologist whose studies of muscle bioelectricity, reflexes, cardiac rhythm and exercise helped shape twentieth‐century physiology.

Abstract figure legend To investigate age‐related differences in ventilatory and cerebrovascular responses to exercise at high‐altitude, adults (n = 10, 23–44 years) and children (n = 8, 7–14 years) completed progressive cycling exercise tests at sea‐level and following 6 days of acclimatization at 3800 m.

Abstact figure legend A panoramic 3D optical mapping system was developed, enabling imaging of action potential waves across the entire strongly deforming ventricular surface of beating isolated hearts. The system comprises 12 high‐speed cameras and a soccerball‐shaped imaging chamber with 48 light‐emitting diodes (LEDs).

ABSTRACT Background Workplace lifestyle programs are increasingly used for early cardiovascular–kidney–metabolic prevention but are commonly evaluated as whole packages. Whether distinct adherence domains within a multimodal program are associated with different short‐term health responses remains unclear.

Sustainable Productivity Growth in Agriculture: The Role of Shifts in R&D Investments and Technology
ABSTRACT The objective of the paper is to evaluate the long‐term prospects of sustainable productivity growth linked to plausible assumptions on public agricultural R&D investments as the key productivity driver. Second, it investigates the role of changing R&D focus from yield maximization to input saving technologies (fertilizers and pesticides). The
