Quantitative MRI changes in neck muscle size and composition following long‐duration spaceflight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight poses several challenges to human health, including muscle loss and fat deposition. To mitigate these effects, exercise countermeasures are prescribed. This study aimed to measure neck muscle size and composition changes with long‐duration spaceflight using quantitative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and examine ...

Movement Time and Brake Pedal Placement

open access: yes, 1986
Optimum relocation of the brake relative to the accelerator can reduce stopping distance and may mean the difference between an accident and a near-accident. A driving simulator was used to examine efficiency of braking movement time.

Impact of Sprint Duration With Fixed Recovery on Acute Physiological and Performance Responses to Repeated Cycle Sprints in Hypoxia in Male and Female Sprinters

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 10, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Repeated short sprints (≤ 10 s) in hypoxia are often used to enhance performance, but acute responses to longer sprints (> 10 s) performed in a repeated‐sprint format with short recovery periods (∼30 s) remain unclear. We examined performance and physiological strain during repeated short (10‐s) and long (15‐s) sprints with identical recovery (
