Accuracy, safety, and usability of a real‐time continuous glucose monitoring system in pediatric diabetes management

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The purpose of the study was to evaluate the accuracy, safety, and usability of a real‐time Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) system compared with venous blood glucose (vBG) in children and adolescents. Methods The study enrolled 81 participants aged from 3 to 17 at three sites in China. Two sensors (GS1, SiBionics, Shenzhen) were

Jumping on the moon as a potential exercise countermeasure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The Moon's gravitational field strength (17% Earth's gravity) may facilitate the use of bodyweight jumping as an exercise countermeasure against musculoskeletal and cardiovascular deconditioning in reduced gravity settings. The present study characterised the acute physiological and kinetic responses to bodyweight jumping in simulated Lunar ...

Effect of internal and external cooling on high‐intensity intermittent cycling performance and cognitive function in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the effect of internal and external cooling on high‐intensity intermittent cycling performance and cognitive function in the heat. Twenty‐nine males completed a control trial (CON) and a cooling trial (ice slurry and ice collar; COOL) in the heat (33°C, 50% relative humidity) involving a 40 min intermittent cycling protocol ...

Robustness Evaluation of Extended and Unscented Kalman Filter for Battery State of Charge Estimation

IEEE Access, 2018
In this paper, the robustness of model-based state observers including extended Kalman filter (EKF) and unscented Kalman filter (UKF) for state of charge (SOC) estimation of a lithium-ion battery against unknown initial SOC, current noise, and ...

Seven days of mixed‐method heat acclimation improved markers of cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory strain during exercise‐heat stress

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract A mixed‐method heat acclimation (HA) protocol may optimise performance by supporting the training taper while promoting thermal adaptation; however, the impact on cardiovascular and fluid‐regulatory adjustments to protect health is unknown. Therefore, we examined the effects of a mixed‐method heat protocol on physiological responses, including

Prebiotic Bimuno® GOS reduces illness symptoms and supports gut barrier function and immunity after intermittent exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise in hot climates increases the risk of gastrointestinal (GI) disruption and respiratory illness. We investigated the effects of a 42 day prebiotic intervention on markers of intestinal epithelial injury, GI discomfort and immunity following football specific exercise in the heat and daily upper respiratory illness.

Whole‐body hot water immersion effect on cerebral haemodynamics and subsequent cerebrovascular reactivity to carbon dioxide

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract To test the hypothesis that hot water immersion (HWI) improves cerebrovascular function via shear‐mediated mechanisms, this study determined cerebrovascular reactivity to carbon dioxide (CVRCO2${\mathrm{CV}}{{\mathrm{R}}_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_2}}}$) before and after 60 min of 39°C HWI and a 21°C air control (CON) in 15 healthy ...

The effect of repeated hot water immersion on microvascular function, glycaemic control and inflammation in White European and South Asian males

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
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.
