Knowledge of Staff Nurses on Management of Deconditioning in Older Adults: A Cross- Sectional Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Introduction: A significant issue facing today’s acute care nurse is the ability to respond to the rising number of  older adults admitted to the hospital, while simultaneously preventing complications of hospitalization, specifically deconditioning ...

Women in space: A review of known physiological adaptations and health perspectives

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exposure to the spaceflight environment causes adaptations in most human physiological systems, many of which are thought to affect women differently from men. Since only 11.5% of astronauts worldwide have been female, these issues are largely understudied.

Effect of training, detraining and deconditioning on V̇O2 slow component [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This study was designed to evaluate the effects on V̇O2 slow component (V̇O2sc) of a 7-week aerobic training and of a detraining of the same duration in 4 subjects (I group); and of 4 weeks deconditioning in 3 subjects (II group).

Disuse and physical deconditioning in the first year after the onset of back pain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
For years, physical deconditioning has been thought to be both a cause and a result of back pain. As a consequence physical reconditioning has been proposed as treatment-goal in patients with chronic low back pain (LBP).

High Intensity Jump Exercise Preserves Posture Control, Gait, and Functional Mobility During 60 Days of Bed-Rest: An RCT Including 90 Days of Follow-Up

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Physical inactivity causes a deconditioning of the human body. Concerns due to chronic bed-rest include deficits in posture and gait control, predisposing individuals to an increased fall and injury risk. This study assessed the efficiency of a high-load

An eye on long‐duration spaceflight: Controversies, countermeasures and challenges

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space flight‐associated neuroocular syndrome (SANS) is a consequence of long‐duration space flight and is detected in two‐thirds of astronauts. In‐flight, this can cause a change in the refraction of the eyes, requiring graded hypermetropic ‘superfocus adjustable’ glasses, optic nerve head oedema and choroidal folds.

Adiponectin pathway in murine models of skeletal muscle deconditioning and reconditioning [PDF]

open access: yes
Skeletal muscle deconditioning leads to a persistent muscle weakness associated with a Disuse-mediated Muscle Atrophy (DMA) and an impaired adult myogenesis which could impede muscle reconditioning and regeneration.

Spaceflight and sport science: Physiological monitoring and countermeasures for the astronaut–athlete on Mars exploration missions

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Long‐duration spaceflight impacts essentially every system in the human body, resulting in multisystem deconditioning that might impair the health and performance of crewmembers, particularly on long‐duration exploration missions to Mars. In this review, we apply the sport science model of athlete monitoring, testing and training to astronauts;

The search for the ultimate exercise countermeasure to preserve crew health and ensure mission success in long‐duration spaceflight

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The current understanding of crew health maintenance is founded upon decades of physiological research conducted in terrestrial spaceflight analogues and in low Earth orbit, particularly on the International Space Station. However, as we progress towards the Lunar Gateway and interplanetary missions, it is imperative that the tools employed to
