Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Sleep apnoea (SA) is ∼2 times more prevalent in men than women. However, this changes at menopause as the occurrence of SA increases and matches that of men. Menopause is a natural process, but it remains unclear why SA emerges only in a subpopulation of ageing women.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Heart failure (HF) with a mildly reduced ejection fraction (HFmrEF; 40%–49%) is present in ≤25% of HF patients. Therapeutic treatment options for HFmrEF‐associated exercise intolerance are limited. Nitric oxide (NO)‐independent stimulation of soluble guanylyl cyclase to improve peripheral vasodilatation offers a novel approach to enhance ...

Microelectrode recordings from the human cervical vagus nerve during maximal breath‐holds
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Voluntary breath‐holds can be sustained for a long time following training, but ultimately, regardless of duration, the asphyxic break‐point is reached and the apnoea terminated. The physiological changes occurring during the apnoea include a marked increase in sympathetically‐mediated vasoconstriction in non‐essential organs, such as skeletal

Physiology of nitrogen: A life or death matter
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract With each breath, four out of every five molecules we inspire are nitrogen (N2), since this gas constitutes ∼80% of the atmospheric air that surrounds us. Despite its abundance and unlike molecular oxygen, N2 has traditionally held less appeal among physiologists given its lack of reactivity and corresponding inability to support combustion or

Sex differences in cerebral blood flow and cardiac function in response to exercise in the heat
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract We investigated the effect of exercising in hot conditions on cerebral blood flow and systolic left ventricular (LV) function in males and females, to explore sex differences. The experimental condition consisted of walking on a treadmill at 5 km/h and 2% incline, inside a heat chamber at 40°C (50% relative humidity), for 90 min.

Carotid artery dissection linked to intermittent apnoeic swimming: A case–control study
Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Internal carotid artery (ICA) dissection is a rare and potentially devastating cause of cerebral ischaemia, initiated by an intimal tear or rupture of the vasa vasorum, that can lead to an intraluminal thrombus, vascular stenosis, occlusion, or dissecting aneurysm formation.

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) significantly increases the risk and severity of cerebral ischaemia–reperfusion (IR) injury, yet effective neuroprotective treatments for diabetic stroke remain limited. This study explored whether a combination of sinomenine and metformin could offer enhanced neuroprotection in diabetic rats subjected to ...
