Abstract Ageing is associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disease. Repeated passive heating, using hot water immersion (HWI), may improve cognitive performance via improved cerebral oxygenation, but this is yet to be examined in older adults.

Abstract Exercise in the heat often causes gastrointestinal (GI) disturbances, which can impair performance. Single amino acid supplementation can attenuate gut damage and enhance exercise tolerance; however, the effectiveness of innate amino acid blends from plant‐based proteins remains underexplored.

Abstract figure legend Pharmacologically augmenting erythropoiesis with rEPO at sea level blunts the high altitude induced erythropoiesis. Abstract Erythropoiesis increases with high altitude (HA) acclimatization. Recombinant human erythropoietin (rEPO) induces erythropoiesis.

Abstract figure legend In lowland mammals that ascend to high elevation, hypoxia‐induced changes in the pulmonary circulation can give rise to hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) and associated right‐ventricle (RV) hypertrophy. Andean mice with broad elevational ranges have greater heart mass relative to body size at higher elevations, but they ...

Evaluation of "HemoCue," a new device for determining hemoglobin.
Abstract Hemoglobinometry according to the International Committee of Standardization in Hematology (ICSH) suffers from imprecision related to high sample dilution and from potential errors owing to sample turbidity. We have evaluated a new instrument, "HemoCue," that measures hemoglobin at two wavelengths as azide methemoglobin, without

Abstract figure legend High‐altitude acclimatisation increases muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) via activation of the arterial chemoreflex, pulmonary arterial baroreceptors and resetting of the sympathetic vascular baroreflex. However attempting to silence these mechanisms only partially normalises MSNA, implicating other contributory ...

Anaemia Among Women in Lesotho: Findings From 2023 to 2024 Demographic and Health Survey
ABSTRACT Background Anaemia remains a severe public health concern worldwide, with more women of reproductive age being affected, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries. Anaemia affects an estimated 613.2 million women of reproductive age (15–49 years) globally. The burden is disproportionately concentrated in South Asia and sub‐Saharan Africa (
