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

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.

Sex differences in loop gain measured via superimposed end‐expiratory breath holds and inspired steady‐state hypoxia

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Acute low oxygen exposure (hypoxia) elicits a hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR), which increases ventilation and mitigates hypoxaemia. During sustained exposure to hypoxia, ventilatory acclimatization increases peripheral chemoreflex (HVR) sensitivity or chemoreflex loop gain (LG).

Influence of menstrual cycle phase on inflammatory and vascular responses to acute passive heating in healthy young women

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine whether inflammatory and vascular responses to passive heating differ between the early follicular phase (EFP) and the mid‐luteal phase (MLP) of the menstrual cycle. Ten healthy, naturally menstruating females (26 ± 3 years of age; body mass index 21.4 ± 1.9 kg/m2) were assessed during EFP and MLP ...

Ageing attenuates regional vasoconstriction during acute lowering of upper and lower limbs

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The venoarteriolar and myogenic response (VMR) is a non‐adrenergic, non‐baroreflex‐mediated mechanism that increases local vascular resistance and contributes to blood pressure (BP) regulation during orthostasis. Despite the importance of the VMR in human cardiovascular control, no information exists elucidating possible differences in the VMR
