Abstract The purpose was to test: (1) whether the decline in maximal motor unit (MU) firing rate is an invariable response when maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) torque is reduced following a submaximal muscle fatiguing task; and (2) whether fatigue‐induced slowing of contractile speed and firing rate decline are co‐dependent. Ten participants (three

Abstract Chronic low‐grade inflammation characterizes type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and underlies the development of peripheral neuropathy, symptoms of which include mechanical allodynia and an exaggerated exercise pressor reflex. The purpose of this study was to determine whether mechanical allodynia and/or specific concentrations of inflammatory ...

Abstract High‐altitude hypoxia elicits several profound physiological responses, including substantial increases in muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA); however, the association of this heightened MSNA with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular haemodynamics remains unclear in lowlanders and indigenous highlander populations.

Abstract We tested the hypothesis that two different durations of lower leg transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) increase post‐TENS popliteal artery blood flow (PABF), popliteal vascular conductance (PVC), and 6‐min walk distance (6MWD) in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD).

Abstract Sympathetic nervous system activation is a hallmark of high‐altitude hypoxia, yet the afferent mechanisms remain incompletely defined. We examined the relative contributions of pulmonary arterial mechanoreceptors and carotid chemoreceptors – two excitatory pathways co‐activated by hypoxia – to sustained sympathoexcitation at altitude.
